Django sys.path.append for project *and* app needed under WSGI
- by GerardJP
Hi all,
Could somebody give me a pointer on why I need to add my project root path to the python path as well as the application itself in my WSGI file?
Project base is called 'djapp', the application is called 'myapp'.
sys.path.append(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)) + '/..')
sys.path.append(os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)) + '/../djapp')
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'djapp.settings'
If I omit the line with "/../djapp/" the log tells my that 'myapp' can not be imported, even though 'djapp.settings' is. (validating 'djapp' was imported)
It al runs properly with the ./manage.py command. there's a __init__ in the project folder.
For testings sake, I see the same issue using addsitedir:
site.addsitedir('/home/user/web/project/')
site.addsitedir('/home/user/web/project/djapp')
Thanx a lot.
Gerard.
