Passenger WSGI error - Django Setup on Dreamhost

Question

I've just tried to setup and upload my Django project to Dreamhost.

I've followed the answer here : Update new Django and Python 2.7.* with virtualenv on Dreamhost (with passenger)

Everything seemed to have worked fine up to the passenger_wsgi which gives me the error "An error occurred importing your passenger_wsgi.py" I've not had any experience with setting this kind of thing up before.

My current wsgi file

import sys, os
cwd = os.getcwd()
sys.path.append(cwd)
sys.path.append(cwd + '/projectname')

if sys.version < "2.7.5": os.excel("/home/<usr>/<domain.com>/env/bin/python",
    "python2.7.5", *sys.argv)

sys.path.insert(0, '/home/<usr>/<domain.com>/evn/bin')
sys.path.insert(0, '/home/<usr>/<domain.com>/evn/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django')
sys.path.insert(0, '/home/<usr>/<domain.com>/evn/lib/python2.7/site-packages')

os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = "projectname.settings"
import django.core.handlers.wsgi
application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler()

where

<usr>

is the Shell user, and

<domain.com>

is the folder for my domain-

I don't really know how to go about finding the source of the problem here, as I don't even know how I can debug this. I have tried changing some of the file directories in case I had something wrong but have had no luck.

I wonder if it could be something to do with Django being installed onto the Python virtualenv?

I've been playing about and it's currently not giving the error, but it just hangs. Am I correct in starting the Django server by using the python virtualenv and running manage.py runserver whilst in Shell? — Lookeh, Apr 27 '14 at 15:13
Yes you should be in the virtualenv since Django only exist there, FYI The 'runserver' command is just to have a lightweight development Web server. — MoiTux, Apr 27 '14 at 18:04
I think I've sorted my issues will post back if the solution is worth while. — Lookeh, Apr 27 '14 at 18:11
