Here is the WSGI file

import os

from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application

os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "hhh.settings")

application = get_wsgi_application()

@FrédéricHenri here is the error log file any ideas what the error is and how i could solve it? — Chris Carter, Nov 18 '16 at 11:19

You need to go back and find the very first error raised when the first request hits a process. The ``populate()`` error is a subsequent follow up error for later requests caused by Django not liking attempts to be initialised more than once in a process. So restart your Apache instance, then make a single request and see what the very first error is. — Graham Dumpleton, Nov 18 '16 at 19:50

Django works fine on local host,but when using eb deploy and viewing it in the browser it comes up with a 500 error?
