Django site runs with dev server but not on Apache mod_wsgi

I have some Django websites and I want to place them on the webserver Apache2 with mod_wsgi.

The webserver works and one Django website works correctly, but the other one doesn't (it shows the Internal Server Error page). But the strange thing is that the website works perfect on the develop server.

This is my vhost config:

<VirtualHost *:8080>
    DocumentRoot "C:\wamp\www\mySite"
    ServerName mysite.dev.businessx.local

    ErrorLog C:\wamp\www\mySite\log\error_log
    CustomLog C:\wamp\www\mySite\log\access_log common

    <Directory "C:\wamp\www\mySite">
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes
        AllowOverride All
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from All
    </Directory>

    WSGIScriptAlias / "c:/wamp/www/mySite/django2.wsgi"
</VirtualHost>

And this is the django2.wsgi:

import os, sys  

sys.path.append('c:/wamp/www/')    
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'mySite.settings'  

import django.core.handlers.wsgi  

application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler()

And under is the error that ends up in the error log of apache when I try to acces the website. It states that it can't import the module mySite.main and main is a subfolder/app of the project.

Can someone see the problem?

It is not finding your package (This is the obvious part).

On thing that has always worked for me is using the site module

import site

ALLDIRS = ['c:/wamp/www/']

for directory in ALLDIRS:
    site.addsitedir(directory)

I also suggest you to use this activate_workingenv that works pretty well.

I hope that helps

It was a very, very simple thing.. The project folder name is case sensitive. I have changed the folder name to the orginal dev name and the project works like a charm.

Thanks for the help!
