Setting up Django on Server with WSGI getting Import Error "Module named myproject.urls Not found"

So I have created a django site and I wanted to move it from my computer to my server. I set up Django on the server, and used the WSGI configuration. When I try to go to the home page I get an Import Error, It says that the module "myproject.urls" isn't found. It's a Django error, and it looks like it is getting the settings.py file and looking at the setting for ROOT_URLCONF an开发者_如何学God seeing the right urls file. I created this project with the usual django-admin.py startproject myproject and I just wanted to see if everything was configured correctly, but now I'm getting this error.

Any Suggestions?

Remove the "myproject" from "myproject.urls". Somehow WSGI addresses the settings as the root, so no need to refer to it again.

It sounds like myproject isn't on your path - what happens if you load up a python shell and run import myproject? If that works, what happens when you run import myproject.urls? If only the second import fails, there's a syntax error in your urls.py or one of the files it imports.

@Afrowave, you saved a huge headache - thank you from me too!

Further to this - I did a little more digging and wanted to avoid having to amend a dozen files in my app to account for loosing 'myproject.' and the start of every import.

Instead, I found if you do something like this -- you don't have to :)

ROOT = '/home/user/path_to_project_root' # In my case, also the dir that contains media, templates etc
APP_ROOT = '/home/user/path_to_django_project'
sys.path.append(ROOT)
sys.path.append(APP_ROOT)
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'django_project.settings'

Hope this helps someone in future.
