Django and Python + uWSGI

Question

Using instruction I try to connect Python + uWSGI.

I made default project in a folder /home/sanya/django/pasteurl. However, have opened it in a browser I get

uWSGI Error
wsgi application not found

Logs contain the following:

binding on TCP port: 9001
your server socket listen backlog is limited to 64 connections
added /home/sanya/django/pasteurl to pythonpath.
initializing hooks...done.
...getting the applications list from the 'django' module...
uwsgi.applications dictionary is not defined, trying with the "applications" one...
applications dictionary is not defined, trying with the "application" callable.
static applications not defined, you have to use the dynamic one...
spawned uWSGI master process (pid: 7637)
spawned uWSGI worker 1 (pid: 7646)
spawned uWSGI worker 2 (pid: 7647)
spawned uWSGI worker 3 (pid: 7648)
spawned uWSGI worker 4 (pid: 7649)

File /home/sanya/django/pasteurl/django.wsgi

import os
import django.core.handlers.wsgi

# init django settings
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'pasteurl.settings'

# define wsgi app
application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler()

# mount this application at the webroot
# applications = { '/': 'application' }

As I realised, it's something wrong with this application dictionary

Answer 1

FWIW, looking at the source code, starting at line 1997, we see that uWSGI emits the exact sequence of error messages that you are receiving if it cannot find an applications dictionary.

Looking at your django.wsgi file, we see that the line,

`applications = {'/': 'application'} 

is commented out. I wonder what we could do about that ;)

BTW, I found the source code using google. Googling for error messages in quotes is often a good thing to do. After I clicked on that link and realized that I was lucky enough to have found the source code straight from google (happens more and more), I pressed Ctrl-F for 'find on page' and re-entered the error message in my browser's on page search facility which led me straight to the relevant lines.

It will be very hard to give help to you if you do not post the commandline used :)

By the way, look at this:
