I used the Bitnami Djangostack AMI to set up a Django environment with
apache2 and mod_wsgi on a free instance provided by Amazon's EC2. The
django app is installed at /opt/bitnami/apps/django/django_projects/mysite,
alongside the default Project application that comes with the stack. The
app runs on my local computer on the development server without issue. When
I transferred the app to the server, I ran the collectstatic script to copy
all of the static files to mysite/static, and configured the server to
serve STATIC_ROOT at STATIC_URL (settings and configuration details are
reported below). As best I can make out, I've configured everything in
accordance with the Django
documentation<https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/howto/deployment/wsgi/modwsgi/>and
modwsgi
<https://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/IntegrationWithDjango>documentation.
When I point my browser to the server's public address, I see the bitnami
startup page, but when I point to the subdirectory mapped to the
application, the browser just hangs. It acts as if it's loading a website,
spins the little wheel to tell you it's loading a website, and says
'Waiting for xx.xxx.xxx.xxx..." But nothing ever happens. There are no
errors reported in */opt/bitnami/apache2/logs/error_log*. But If I point
instead to a random subdirectory that doesn't exist, I get a 404 page. If I
point to the static subdirectory, I get a 403 Forbidden page. If I
purposefully add a bug to any of the python code (in e.g.
*mysite/mysite/urls.py* or *mysite/myapp/views.py*), I get a 500 Internal
Server Error and a message in the error_log with the expected python stack
trace.
If anyone has any suggestions, I would obviously be very grateful. I'm
pretty new to this.
Here are the relevant parts of my configuration files.
