Django Misconfiguration

I am trying to deploy mayan-edms a django web application on a RedHat5.6 server in production mode with apache webserver.

I have setup the database and the used a virtual-env to setup the env

This is my httpd.conf

WSGIScriptAlias /mayan /var/www/mayan/mayan/wsgi/dispatch.wsgi
WSGIPythonPath /var/www/mayan/mayan:/var/www/mayan/lib/python2.6/site-packages
<Directory /var/www/mayan/mayan>
<Files wsgi.py>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Files>
</Directory>

I am getting a 500 error if I start apache with this conf. Could anyone tell me where it is getting misconfigured?

This is the error

You are using python 2.6, the documentation for installation seems to use python 2.7

Sounds like a Python version issue. RHEL 5.6 appears to be quite an old release, and anyway Red Hat are known for bundling old versions of Python. Looking at this table it seems likely that that version of RHEL was not even Python 2.4.

From the other side, the minimum Python version to run the current Django release is 2.7. Although that said, the requirements.txt file for your app actually asks for Django 1.3.5 - but you will still need at least Python 2.6 for that. You will either need to compile and install that version yourself, or upgrade your version of Red Hat.
