uWSGI raises django.core.exceptions.AppRegistryNotReady

[kmmbvnr@…]

I did uwsgi setup as listed here - ​http://smidth.ru/blog/django/django-nginx-uwsgi-supervisor/ with django 1.7 and following wsgi.ini

[uwsgi]
home=/project_path/env/
chdir=/project_path
master=True
disable-logging=True
vacuum=True
pidfile=/project_path/project.pid
max-requests=5000
socket=127.0.0.1:49001
processes=2
harakiri = 20

pythonpath=/project_path/
env=DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=project.settings
module=django.core.handlers.wsgi:WSGIHandler()
touch-reload=/project_path/deploy/reload

I have to set DEBUG to False in order to see the real exception

django.core.exceptions.AppRegistryNotReady

It could be fixed by adding following lines on top of django.core.handlers.wsgi.py

import django
django.setup()

Sorry, miss the docs.

The correct solution would be specify

module=django.core.wsgi:get_wsgi_application()

Yes, that's the correct solution. May I suggest reading ​our official documentation rather than incorrect blog posts? ;-)
