Django project on pythonanywhere

I uploaded my app that worked fine on my local machine to pythonanywhere. I got it to work but instead of showing the homepage of my blog it shows the "It worked, welcome to Django" page. Could someone please help me?

Solution

  • the two main stumbling blocks for people uploading apps to PythonAnywhere tend to be getting the correct version of django, and getting the WSGI configuration right.

    For the former, we recommend using a virtualenv. There's a detailed how-to guide here: https://www.pythonanywhere.com/wiki/Virtualenvs

    For the wsgi file, there's a detailed guide to getting imports correct here: https://www.pythonanywhere.com/wiki/DebuggingImportError
