How to host 2 websites consisting of html and django using virtualhost

Keywords: Django - AWS - How to - Other
Description:
Using virtualhost, I want to connect to the web composed of html files on 'domain.com' and the web composed of django on' sub.domain.com'.
If I simply host django without html, it connects well, but when I insert a web composed of html and try to divide it with a subdomain, only the web composed of html is the same for both links.
How can I separate it?

Hello @lazyvec.bl,

I have been able to deploy two different Django applications one to the root domain and another to a subdomain using the previously linked guide. Before sharing Apache's conf files, it is worth noting that you need to use approach A as you are using one of the new versions that use System Packages.

Having two apps testing1 and testing2 to be served in our domain example.com, one possible configuration would be:

Configure both apps for public access following the guide and create the superuser.
Create custom vhost configuration at /opt/bitnami/apache2/conf/vhosts/testing1-http-vhost.conf that will be served in the subdomain:

  <IfDefine !IS_testing1_LOADED>
    Define IS_testing1_LOADED
    WSGIDaemonProcess testing1 python-home=/opt/bitnami/python python-path=/opt/bitnami/projects/testing1
  </IfDefine>
  <VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80 _default_:80>    
    ServerName testing1.example.com
    WSGIProcessGroup testing1
    Alias /robots.txt /opt/bitnami/projects/testing1/static/robots.txt
    Alias /favicon.ico /opt/bitnami/projects/testing1/static/favicon.ico
    <Directory /opt/bitnami/projects/testing1/static>
      Require all granted
    </Directory>
    WSGIScriptAlias / /opt/bitnami/projects/testing1/testing1/wsgi.py
    <Directory /opt/bitnami/projects/testing1/testing1>
      <Files wsgi.py>
        Require all granted
      </Files>
    </Directory>
  </VirtualHost>

Create custom vhost configuration at /opt/bitnami/apache2/conf/vhosts/testing2-http-vhost.conf that will be served in the root domain:

...
<VirtualHost 127.0.0.1:80 _default_:80>
    ServerAlias example.com
    WSGIProcessGroup testing2
...

Restart apache:

sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh restart apache

Could you try reproducing my steps and check whether it works for you?

Francisco de Paz
