I’m truly sorry man’s dominion
Has broken Nature’s social union,
An’ justifies that ill opinion
Which makes thee startle
At me, thy poor, earth born companion
An’ fellow mortal!

I doubt na, whyles, but thou may thieve;
What then? poor beastie, thou maun live!
A daimen icker in a thrave
‘S a sma’ request;
I’ll get a blessin wi’ the lave,
An’ never miss’t.

Thy wee-bit housie, too, in ruin!
It’s silly wa’s the win’s are strewin!
An’ naething, now, to big a new ane,
O’ foggage green!
An’ bleak December’s win’s ensuin,
Baith snell an’ keen!

Thou saw the fields laid bare an’ waste,
An’ weary winter comin fast,
An’ cozie here, beneath the blast,
Thou thought to dwell,
Till crash! the cruel coulter past
Out thro’ thy cell.

That wee bit heap o’ leaves an’ stibble,
Has cost thee monie a weary nibble!
Now thou’s turned out, for a’ thy trouble,
But house or hald,
To thole the winter’s sleety dribble,
An’ cranreuch cauld.

But Mousie, thou art no thy lane,
In proving foresight may be vain:
The best laid schemes o’ mice an’ men
Gang aft agley,
An’ lea’e us nought but grief an’ pain,
For promis’d joy!

Still thou are blest, compared wi’ me!
The present only toucheth thee:
But och! I backward cast my e’e,
On prospects drear!
An’ forward, tho’ I canna see,
I guess an’ fear!

update the server:

apt-get update
>apt-get upgrade


install apache and mod_wsgi:

>sudo apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-wsgi


and install setup tools for python, and pip:

> sudo apt-get install python-setuptools
> sudo apt-get install python-pip


Pick a database:

>apt-get install mysql-server python-mysqldb
>apt-get install postgresql python-psycopg2
>apt-get install sqlite3 python-sqlite


Now install Django:

> sudo pip install django


and prepare the folders you will need :

> sudo mkdir /srv/www
> sudo mkdir /srv/www/wsgi
> sudo mkdir /srv/www/public_html

create a file to test if wsgi working:
sudo vim /srv/www/wsgi/app.wsgi

putting this content into the app.wsgi file:
def application(environ, start_response):
status = '200 OK'
output = 'Hello World!'

return [output]

create a new apache site to test wsgi:
sudo vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/wsgi

and add this content to the site, replacing “myDocRootUrl” as appropriate — NOTE: bug in my blog software, so left out the opening less than sign on the virtual host tags:
VirtualHost *:80>

/VirtualHost>

Next, check for and remove any default sites in sites-enabled folder:

>ls /etc/apache2/sites-available
>rm whatever defaults in there...

Now activate the test of wsgi site:
> sudo a2ensite wsgi
> sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload

Now visit the url you specified as myDocRootUrl.wsgi and you should see “Hello World!”

If not, first thing, check your apache error log (you likely need to change to root user here, not just sudo):

>sudo su -
>cat /var/log/apache2/error.log


Create django project:

> cd /srv/www
> sudo django-admin.py startproject myProject

Your project folder should now contain these files:
__init__.py manage.py settings.py urls.py

Create a wsgi file for the project (rename myProject as appropriate):

> sudo mkdir /srv/www/myProject/apache
> sudo vim /srv/www/myProject/apache/django.wsgi

and put this text in that django.wsgi file (rename myProject as appropriate):
import os
import sys

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

Create a new apache sites-available for your django project:

>sudo vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/myProject

and add starter virtual host content to it (rename myProject as appropriate)(virtual hosts tags missing leading <):

VirtualHost *:80>

/VirtualHost>

Activate the new project site:
> sudo a2ensite myProject
> sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload

browse to your project url and hopefully you see the default django welcome message!
