I'm setting up Apache2 and mod_wsgi for Django in Debian, but I found problems. First, these are my directories:

/webapps/lib/python2.6/site-packages # python eggs /webapps/lib/python2.6/ # python libraries /webapps/myproject.wsgi # wsgi script /webapps/myproject/ # django project 

And this is the directory /webapps/lib/python2.6 (permissions are 777):

. ├── django │   ├── bin │   ├── conf │   ├── ... │   └── views └── site-packages ├── easy-install.pth ├── mongoengine-0.5.3-py2.6.egg ├── pymongo-2.1-py2.6-linux-x86_64.egg └── site.py 

In httpd.conf I have this:

WSGIScriptAlias / /webapps/myproject.wsgi WSGIPythonEggs /webapps/lib/python2.6/site-packages/ 

And finally in myproject.wsgi:

import sys sys.path.insert(0, '/webapps/lib/python2.6/site-packages') sys.path.insert(0, '/webapps/lib/python2.6') sys.path.insert(0, '/webapps/myproject') import settings import django.core.management django.core.management.setup_environ(settings) utility = django.core.management.ManagementUtility() command = utility.fetch_command('runserver') # I tried 2 lines above as well, but nothing #import os #os.environ["PYTHON_EGG_CACHE"] = "/webapps/lib/python2.6/site-packages" command.validate() import django.core.handlers.wsgi application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler() # This for trying if system reads eggs try: import mongoengine except Exception as e: raise ImportError(str(e) + ". " + str(sys.path)) 

When I restart Apache and try to visit any webpage, I get error 500 and this in the log:

[Wed Jan 04 18:18:12 2012] [error] [client 217.217.164.22] ImportError: No module named mongoengine. ['/webapps/myproject', '/webapps/lib/python2.6', '/webapps/lib/python2.6/site-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.6', '/usr/lib/python2.6/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-old', '/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload', '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages', '/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6']

So as you can see django is imported well, but none of the eggs are imported. However I didn't find any other way to import them. Why eggs are not imported?

Thanks.
