I am trying to deploy my Django application with Apache and mod_wsgi.

I installed and configured them according to following references:- https://modwsgi.readthedocs.io/en/develop/user-guides/quick-installation-guide.html

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/howto/deployment/wsgi/modwsgi/

My django project tree - /home/zahlen

 mysite
├── db.sqlite3
├── log
│   ├── access.log
│   └── error.log
├── manage.py
├── mysite
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── settings.py
│   ├── static
│   ├── templates
│   ├── urls.py

│   ├── migrations
│   ├── models.py

└── static

django is present in /home/zahlen/.local/lib/site-packages

//apache2/apache2.conf

....
....
LoadModule wsgi_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_wsgi.so
WSGIPythonPath /home/zahlen/mysite:/home/zahlen/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages

        Require all granted
    </Files>

    WSGIDaemonProcess mysite.com python-path=/home/zahlen/mysite
    WSGIProcessGroup mysite.com
    WSGIScriptAlias / /home/zahlen/mysite/mysite/wsgi.py
</VirtualHost>

Django and mod_wsgi are configured to use python2.7 . Vitualenv is not used and Apache uses the Event MPM

All of this is on a Ubuntu Server Virtual Machine.

//log/apache2/error.log gives the following line which verifies use of python2.7

My browser throws Internal Server Error on the host machine every time i open my site using ip address of the VM

It seems that wsgi.py couldn't import the django package but it is present in /home/zahlen/.local/lib/site-packages/python2.7 directory

Can anyone light me the issue please?

Set up sys.path in the wsgi.py before you import Django module.
