Permission Denied - Django Deployment on Ubuntu 16.04 with web server Nginx

  • 772

I am trying to deploy a django website on a Ubuntu 16.04 system using nginx but I am having issues.

ERRORS

Error I get from my nginx error.log file:

connect() to unix:/home/teddycrepineau/contoursandcolors/contoursandcolors.sock failed (13: Permission denied) while connecting to upstream, client: 64.125.191.37, server: 173.255.210.63, request: "GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1", upstream: "uwsgi://unix:/home/teddycrepineau/contoursandcolors/contoursandcolors.sock:", host: "173.255.210.63", referrer: "http://173.255.210.63/"

Status of uwgsi:

SET UP

  • Using Python 3
  • Ubuntu 16.04
  • Using Virtualenvwrapper and virtualenv

Virtualenvwrapper set up

echo "export WORKON_HOME=~/Env" >> ~/.bashrc
echo "source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh" >> ~/.bashrc

/etc/uwsgi/sites/contoursandcolors.ini:

[uwsgi]
project = contoursandcolors
uid = teddycrepineau
base = /home/%(uid)

chdir = %(base)/%(project)
home = %(base)/Env/%(project)
module = %(project).wsgi:application

master = true
processes = 2

socket = %(base)/%(project)/%(project).sock
chmod-socket = 664
vacuum = true

/etc/nginx/sites-available/contoursandcolor:

server {
        listen 80;
        server_name 173.255.210.63;

        location = /favicon.io { access_log off; log_not_found off; }

        location /static/ {
                root /home/teddycrepineau/contoursandcolors;
        }

        location / {
                include uwsgi_params;
                uwsgi_pass unix:/home/teddycrepineau/contoursandcolors/contoursandcolors.sock;
        }
}

/etc/systemd/system/uwsgi.service:

[Unit]
Description=uWSGI Emperor service

[Service]
ExecStartPre=/bin/bash -c 'mkdir -p /run/uwsgi; chown teddycrepineau:www-data /run/uwsgi'
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/uwsgi --emperor /etc/uwsgi/sites

WHAT I'VE TRIED

  • Changed default python version from 2.7 to 3.5
  • Change socket file location from project to run (get me a file not found error)
  • I looked at quite a few StackExchange posts, but none have resolved my issue thus far

From what I read, my issue may be related to virtualenv location set up. Where should I go from here?

EDIT

I ended up using gunicorn (instead of uWSGI). It worked fine and was pretty easy to set up. Here is the link to the tutorial: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-django-with-postgres-nginx-and-gunicorn-on-ubuntu-16-04
