taenada · May 13, 2020

Hello. I'm trying to deploy my Django app on Johny server following instructions on Helio wiki. But it keeps having 500 Internal Server Error. Here is my project structure

Please show me my error. Thank you so much.

What is the URL of your Django site?

taenada · May 13, 2020

I'm currently using default domain http://taenada.heliohost.org/

I plan to config it later after everything work well.

Here is your error:

[Thu May 14 01:27:08.876704 2020] [core:error] [pid 8987] [client x.x.x.x:64300] AH00124: Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace., referer: http://taenada.heliohost.org/

That means you have a redirect loop. Usually that indicates an error in your .htaccess.

Thank you for pointing out my error. I have fixed a little but still get 500 error. I checked error page in cpanel and got

[Thu May 14 04:39:51.146023 2020] [wsgi:error] [pid 693] [client 14.165.129.32:50895]   File "/home/taenada/public_html/ThaidatGa/dispatch.wsgi", line 8, in <module>

It seems that my current problem is now dispatch file.

My current dispatch file:

import os, sys

# edit your username below
sys.path.append("/home/Taenada/public_html/ThaidatGa")
from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application
os.environ['PYTHON_EGG_CACHE'] = '/home/Taenada/.python_egg_cache'
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'settings'
application = get_wsgi_application()

Usernames can't have capital letters. Your username is taenada, not Taenada.

Usernames can't have capital letters. Your username is taenada, not Taenada.

Thank you. Fixed. But still error. It's hard for me to trace error because error page in cpanel seems not up to date.

Krydos · May 15, 2020

Still the same redirect error:

[Fri May 15 04:40:14.352416 2020] [core:error] [pid 14049] [client 65.19.141.66:62395] AH00124: Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace., referer: http://taenada.heliohost.org/

taenada · May 16, 2020

I have tried to solved the problem by adding this line to .htacess

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$

And maybe I got improvement that the 500 Internal Error page not show anymore. But it's changed to another form of 500 Internal Error by showing this line (checked in browser network tab, request return 500 error)

(none) 14.165.129.32 / taenada.heliohost.org Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:76.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/76.0 500

Here, I think problem is in my code. Code works well on my local, but the version of Django does not match with the one on server. So I tried to run my code in local with virtualenv and downgraded version of Django (2.1.13). Code still worked well. So my thought is wrong.

It's also hard for me to trace error because I don't know where.

Please tell me what I should do. Thanks for your help and sorry for bothering you these days.

I see mention of something called "ShortLink" in there. If this is something you wrote yourself you need to check the path to it because it isn't finding it. If it is an external module that someone else wrote you need to request those to be installed before you can use them otherwise you'll get an error. You can check the currently installed modules with this page https://krydos2.heliohost.org/cgi-bin/modules37.py

Thanks for this helpful information. I have fixed my main problem, there are still some minor one that I will work on later.
Eventually, my site is now running.

I will make a summary for other people who want to deploy django and be in trouble like me.
1) Check your .htacess, if you get

AH00124: Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace

Adding this line may help you

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$

2) Make sure you included your project path in dispatch.wsgi, and make sure your dir to module and application you written your own correctly.

In my case, I wrote this and got error,

sys.path.append("/home/<username>/public_html/<project name>")
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'settings'

It worked well with settings file, but not your own application. Because my application was put under public_html

I fixed by changed these lines to

sys.path.append("/home/<username>/public_html/")
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = '<project name>.settings'

Once again, thank you for your help.
