Your BASE_DIR value in your settings file is possibly wrong if you have
reorganised how settings are kept from normal second level to third level
directory.
If you run:
python manage.py diffsettings
what does it show for BASE_DIR? Is it the directory above your project
directory?
Also, what version of Django are you using? If your code base was ported from
very old Django, the settings file might not even have BASE_DIR, in which case
runmodwsgi tries to calculate BASE_DIR but it will again be wrong if you have
moved settings to third level directory.
Either way, the BASE_DIR directory is used for the --working-directory option
so that the project can be found properly. If your BASE_DIR is wrong but you
can't change it for some reason, add:
--working-directory .
when running '--setup-only'.
python manage.py runmodwsgi --setup-only --server-root /some/path
--working-directory .
That presumes your manage.py is still in the directory which is the parent to
your project directory.
