ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tutorial'-CodePudding

I am trying to learn how to set up a Django web server using an AWS Ubuntu Machine, I have solved a few of my problems but now I am getting hit with the ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tutorial' and I am also getting the 500 internal server error.

Here is what I think the necessary code is:

error.log

I was following an instruction guide and I was running into errors left and right, I just want my mysql and django to link on my page.

CodePudding user response：

according to your files your project name is "tutorial" and the error is caused by

os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'tutorial.settings')

in wsgi.py (but this is correct - the root cause is in your non standard folder structure). How does your folder structure look like?

Should be according to django standard:

src/
   tutorial/
      tutorial/
         settings.py
         urls.py
         wsgi.py

From your Apache config I can see that wsgi.py is not in the correct folder.

Should be:

WSGIScriptAlias / /home/ubuntu/django-project/src/tutorial/tutorial/wsgi.py
