Same site, different django projects, served through different url

Question

So I am on:

• Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
• Apache/2.4.7
• Latest mod-wsgi-3.4 built from source
• Python 3.4 virtualenv
• Django 1.86

I have 2 django projects at different locations:

• /home/admin/myproject/
• /home/boba/bobaproject/

So the directories are under different users.

I am trying to serve myproject at www.example.com and serve boba at www.example.com/boba

I followed https://gun.io/blog/how-to-install-multiple-django-sites-on-the-same-server/ and setup my Apache config file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin a@b.com
    ServerName example.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/example.com/public_html

    WSGIScriptAlias /boba /home/boba/bobaproject/website/wsgi.py
    WSGIDaemonProcess boba python-path=/home/boba/bobaproject:/home/boba/bobaproject/bbenv/lib/python3.4/site-packages
    WSGIProcessGroup boba
    <Directory /home/boba/bobaproject/website>
        <Files wsgi.py>
            Require all granted
        </Files>
    </Directory>

    Alias /static /home/boba/bobaproject/static
    <Directory /home/boba/bobaproject/static>
        Require all granted
    </Directory>

    WSGIScriptAlias / /home/admin/myproject/myproject/wsgi.py
    WSGIDaemonProcess myproject python-path=/home/admin/myproject:/home/admin/myproject/myprojectenv/lib/python3.4/site-packages
    WSGIProcessGroup myproject
    <Directory /home/admin/myproject/myproject>
        <Files wsgi.py>
            Require all granted
        </Files>
    </Directory>

    Alias /static /home/admin/myproject/static
    <Directory /home/admin/myproject/static>
        Require all granted
    </Directory>

    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

</VirtualHost>

But I am getting only myproject at both www.example.com and www.example.com/boba Individually both site configs do work if I remove the other. Together they dont.

My order of declaring the wsgi applications seem to be correct with myproject which is served by the basic url declared later. boba is first

Also each wsgi application has its own WSGIProcessGroup. What could be going wrong here?

I keep getting this in the Apache error logs, not sure if its relevant:

Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

I seem to have partially solved this after looking at this question: Serving 2 django sites with the same code

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerAdmin a@b.com
    ServerName example.com       

    WSGIScriptAlias /boba /home/boba/bobaproject/website/wsgi.py
    WSGIDaemonProcess boba python-path=/home/boba/bobaproject:/home/boba/bobaproject/bbenv/lib/python3.4/site-packages
    <Location /boba>
        WSGIProcessGroup boba
    </Location>
    <Directory /home/boba/bobaproject/website>
        <Files wsgi.py>
            Require all granted
        </Files>
    </Directory>

    Alias /static /home/boba/bobaproject/static
    <Directory /home/boba/bobaproject/static>
        Require all granted
    </Directory>

    WSGIScriptAlias /myproject /home/admin/myproject/myproject/wsgi.py
    WSGIDaemonProcess myproject python-path=/home/admin/myproject:/home/admin/myproject/myprojectenv/lib/python3.4/site-packages
    <Location /myproject >
        WSGIProcessGroup myproject
    </Location>
    <Directory /home/admin/myproject/myproject>
        <Files wsgi.py>
            Require all granted
        </Files>
    </Directory>

    Alias /static /home/admin/myproject/static
    <Directory /home/admin/myproject/static>
        Require all granted
    </Directory>

    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

</VirtualHost>

Using the Location tag around the WSGIProcessGroup gives me the django apps at www.example.com/boba and www.example.com/myproject

But I still would prefer the myproject app at the base URL example.com That I haven't figured out yet.

Note: Removing DocumentRoot is not needed. Keeping it will cause the plain old HTML docs to be served from the document root folder for the base URL www.example.com
