sys.path.append('C:/Users/abda/applica/projet/')
os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "projet.settings")
from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application
application = get_wsgi_application()

this is the code in httpd.conf file

WSGIScriptAlias /t C:/Users/abda/applica/test.py 
WSGIScriptAlias / C:/Users/abda/applica/projet/projet/wsgi.py
Alias /media/ C:/Users/abda/applica/projet/www/media/
Alias /static/ C:/Users/abda/applica/projet/www/static/
<Directory /abda/applica/projet/projet>

       </Files>
</Directory>`

I use django1.5 and apache2.4

Answer 1

solved

All apache/ wsgi_mod.so and python need to be 64 bit or 32 bit http://modwsgi.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installation-guides/installation-on-windows.html

Answer 2

Is your Apache HTTP server compiled for 32 bit or 64 bit processor? It looks like a DLL is looking for a 32-bit version of Windows.

Answer 3

Can you try using the 32-bit Apache Http Server? XAMPP has one that might make it easier to test.
