check django is ok
start up a python interpreter
import django
django.get_version()
and make sure there are no errors there
It could be a permissions problem,
make sure the apache user owns the coursedb directory
on debian the account is called www-data
so
chown -R www-data:www-data /home/mycode/coursedb
should do that, also make sure they can read and write the files anyway
chmod -R u+rw /home/mycode/coursedb
delete any pyc files that might have come from your local machine
cd /home/mycode/coursedb
find . -name '*.pyc' -exec rm {} \;
(be careful with that find command, dont want to go deleting the wrong
files)
after each step above restart apache, I assume its apache2 so
apache2ctl restart
>From experience I would say the file permission issue is the most likely
culprit
Good luck
