    copied!<p>I am trying to serve two django projects from the same server using WSGI, but require that one run from example.com/ (let's call that app1) and the other from example.com/foo/ (app2). I tried setting this up with separate daemon processes as described in Graham's comment <a href="http://mediacore.com/blog/hosting-multiple-wsgi-applications-with-apache" rel="nofollow">here</a>, but that appears not to work when one of the paths is a subdirectory of the other. All requests for example.com/foo/... are still being handled by the app1.</p> <p>Is there any way I can achieve what I'm looking for without needing to combine the two projects into one (which would be a difficult task)?</p> <p>This is what I currently have in my site configuration:</p> <pre><code>WSGIDaemonProcess app1 \ python-path=&lt;path for app1's virtualenv&gt; WSGIDaemonProcess app2 \ python-path=&lt;path for app2's virtualenv&gt; WSGIScriptAlias / &lt;path to app1's wsgi.py&gt; WSGIScriptAlias /foo/ &lt;path to app2's wsgi.py&gt; &lt;Location /&gt; WSGIProcessGroup app1 &lt;/Location&gt; &lt;Location /foo/&gt; WSGIProcessGroup app2 &lt;/Location&gt; </code></pre> <p>Update:</p> <p>I've tried using LocationMatch instead of Location to try to have every request to a path that doesn't start with /foo delegated to app1 and those that do to app2, but that doesn't work either for some reason. Now, requests to /foo/... result in a 500 error with this line in the error log:</p> <pre><code>mod_wsgi (pid=12032): Exception occurred processing WSGI script '&lt;app1's wsgi.py&gt;'. </code></pre> <p>Any ideas?</p> <p>The bottom of the above has been changed to</p> <pre><code>&lt;LocationMatch "^/(?!foo.*)"&gt; WSGIProcessGroup app1 &lt;/LocationMatch&gt; &lt;LocationMatch "^/foo.*"&gt; WSGIProcessGroup app2 &lt;/LocationMatch&gt; </code></pre> <p>Update 2:</p> <p>After looking at the error log further, it looks like the requests to /foo/... are being handled by app1's wsgi.py file, but using the python path for app2, meaning that the correct WSGIProcessGroup directive is being applied. Therefore, the problem appears to be a ScriptAlias collision. Is it possible to have this alias be a regex as well to make sure /foo... is not matched to /?</p>
