Pythonanywhere Wsgi Error

in spite of my best efforts in the past weeks I've been stuck at deploying the WSGI file on Pythonanywhere while trying to set up a django framework. There are similar topics on he

Solution 1:

As the error says, your DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE environment variable is set to "mysite", but that directory does not exist. Your settings file actually appears to be in "firstweb".

Solution 2:

follow it

Start by saving your environment variables into a .env file in your project folder You can run something like this in a Bash console, or edit the .env file directly using our "Files" tab:

cd ~/my-project-dir

echo"export SECRET_KEY=sekritvalue" >> .envecho"export OTHER_SECRET=somethingelse" >> .env

Install python-dotenv into your virtualenv workon my-virtualenv-name

pip install python-dotenv

or, if you're not using a virtualenv:

pip3.6 install --user python-dotenv

and, optionally, add it to your requirements.txt, if you're using one:

echo python-dotenv >> requirements.txt

and in wsgi file before get_wsgi_application()

import os

from dotenv import load_dotenv

project_folder = os.path.expanduser('~/my-project-dir')  # adjust as appropriate

load_dotenv(os.path.join(project_folder, '.env'))

and make changes in setting.py file and remove secret key and put

import os

SECRET_KEY = os.getenv("SECRET_KEY")

and at last, do in bash console

set -a; source ~/my-project-dir/.env; set +a

echo'set -a; source ~/my-project-dir/.env; set +a' >> ~/.virtualenvs/my-project-virtualenv/bin/postactivate

all done remove wsgi related error
