I have been trying to publish my first ever Django web application and going through many hurdles over the last two days, I am still unable to access it via the url - it's not live.
I have published it from VS2017, set up continuous deployment from VSTS, installed Python 3.6 extension, updated my web.config file, installed required packages in Kudu, the app is redirected to a cloud-based data base.
I followed the various documentation sites to the letter e.g.: Deploy your app to Azure App Service and Managing Python on Azure App Service but I still can't just browse to my url - I am getting a welcome page saying "Your App Service app has been created" and some tutorials.
What am I missing? What is the final stage that I need to do to make it go live?
Responding to the comment below, I have updated my web.config file in KUDU with the following code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<appSettings>
<add key="PYTHONPATH" value="D:\home\site\wwwroot"/>
<add key="WSGI_HANDLER" value="app.wsgi_app"/>
<add key="WSGI_LOG" value="D:\home\LogFiles\wfastcgi.log"/>
</appSettings>
<system.webServer>
<handlers>
<add name="PythonHandler" path="*" verb="*" modules="FastCgiModule" scriptProcessor="D:\home\Python361x64\python.exe|D:\home\Python361x64\wfastcgi.py" resourceType="Unspecified" requireAccess="Script"/>
</handlers>
</system.webServer>
</configuration>
When trying to run my url I am getting an internal server error, and when I go to Python log file I am getting the following message:
D:\home\Python361x64\python.exe: can't open file 'D:\home\site\wwwroot\runserver.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
It seems that you had solved partial issues in your another thread How to deploy Django app on Azure?, which I have solved it and posted my answer.
Please refer to it and the
completed configuration
