wsgi for virtualenv not working

Question

I'm using bitnami Django stack. WSGI works fine when not using virtualenv

However I installed virtualenv in root using sudo apt-get install and now WSGI does not work for virtualenv projects

my apache conf file is

Alias /static "/opt/bitnami/apps/live/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/static"

<Directory '/opt/bitnami/apps/live/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/contrib'>
    <IfVersion < 2.3 >
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    </IfVersion>
    <IfVersion >= 2.3>
    Require all granted
    </IfVersion>
</Directory>

WSGIScriptAlias /search "/opt/bitnami/apps/run/live_cybrhome.wsgi"

<Directory '/opt/bitnami/apps/run'>
    <IfVersion < 2.3 >
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    </IfVersion>
    <IfVersion >= 2.3>
    Require all granted
    </IfVersion>
</Directory>

my wsgi file is

import os, sys
sys.path.append('/opt/bitnami/apps/live')
sys.path.append('/opt/bitnami/apps/live/cybrhome')
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'cybrhome.settings'

import django.core.handlers.wsgi

application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler()

The apache log is:

mod_wsgi (pid=4070): Exception occurred processing WSGI script '/opt/bitnami/apps/run/live_cybrhome.wsgi'.

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/opt/bitnami/apps/django/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/core/handlers/wsgi.py", line 187, in call

error_prefix, module_path, class_name))

ImproperlyConfigured: Module "django.contrib.auth.middleware" does not define a "SessionAuthenticationMiddleware" attribute/class

Any ideas?

Answer 1

SessionAuthenticationMiddleware is new in Django 1.7. Presumably you have an older version of Django installed in your virtualenv.
