ImportError：Elastic Beanstalk中没有名为django.core.wsgi的模块

Question

I was getting started with AWS' Elastic Beanstalk .

I am following this tutorial to deploy a Django/PostgreSQL app .

I did everything before the 'Configuring a Database' section. The deployment was also successful but I am getting an Internal Server Error.

Here's the traceback from the logs:

 mod_wsgi (pid=30226): Target WSGI script '/opt/python/current/app/polly/wsgi.py' cannot be loaded as Python module.

Any idea what's wrong?

Answer 1

Have you created a requirements.txt in the root of your application? Elastic Beanstalk will automatically install the packages from this file upon deployment. (Note it might need to be checked into source control to be deployed.)

pip freeze > requirements.txt

(You will probably want to do that from within a virtualenv so that you only pick up the packages your app actually needs to run. Doing that with your system Python will pick up every package you've ever installed system-wide.)

Answer 2

The answer ( https://stackoverflow.com/a/47209268/6169225 ) by carl-g is correct. One thing that got me was that requirements.txt was in the wrong directory. Let's say you created a django project called mysite . This is the directory in which you run the eb command(s) --> make sure requirements.txt is in this directory.

Answer 3

If you forget the .ebextensions folder you will get the same error.

I was following along with a good simple (non Elastic Beanstalk) tutorial and missed step 3 & 4 of Elastic Beanstalk .

I was using Django 1.11 and Python 2.7
