Re: django windows apache tell if apache is working

Hi,

I think I see the problem now.

WAMP is a special case for aliases, and it's root directory default setup in c:wamp\www for ex..  I need to do some more work on, say for ex. using Django Tut 01, setting up mysite as an alias in wamp, and then putting the polls app in it.  I believe apache might start to work then with django if the wamp alias is setup correctly.

I also found this vid tut:  really good, but for XAMPP, not WAMP...but it shows how to get the mod_wsgi.so from a renamed and extracted .whl file.  And using the mod_wsgi.so with apache simplifies things a bit, so this is good too.

XAMPP

This shows how to create a mod_wsgi.so from the .pyd extracted from the .whl file

That said, there's a few different ways you can actually deploy, but digitalocean has some good resources for starting out.

This one shows how to use apache on ubuntu, and you should be able to extrapolate to use wamp.

what I would do is just set up a simple view to return a http response saying "working", and map that to the root.  Something like 

app/views

def index(request):

    return HttpResponse("Working!")

app/urls

from app.views import index

urlpatterns = [

    path('', index), 

]

and hit localhost.  That'll be all you need.

Hi,

Thanks.

Yes, I went thru the Mozilla library tutorial on a fedora dev machine to the point where I realized I needed to do more with the last mile, so to speak working on setup of the production server part on Windows and wamp.

Seems most tuts end at manage.py runserver, or start into deployment from dev to production.  I can't seem to locate a good uptodate tut for wamp that shows how to test everything is working properly in a simple manner for the wsgi part.

I'm just trying to verify the plumbing (httpd.conf, settings.py wsgi.py) is working with apache, before spending too much more time building a site.

appreciate the detailed report :-)

so, have you set up the django tutorial project?  that application method in wsgi doesn't make any sense.  you should have urls and views set up in your project
