I have a problem with deployment of my web app.



I am using Django 2.1.7 on apache2.



I set all the proper permissions to folders and files (at least thats what I think):



drwxr-s--- 10 bedirt www-data 4096 Mar 8 21:10 projectNal


And in the folder:



-rwxr-x--- 1 bedirt www-data 11357 Mar 2 20:37 LICENSE
-rwxr-x--- 1 bedirt www-data 12 Mar 2 20:37 README.md

drwxrwx--- 2 bedirt www-data 4096 Mar 8 21:10 media
drwxr-x--- 3 bedirt www-data 4096 Mar 8 21:53 projectNal
drwxr-x--- 6 bedirt www-data 4096 Mar 8 22:49 qBank
-rwxr-x--- 1 bedirt www-data 512 Mar 2 20:37 requirements.txt
drwxr-x--- 12 bedirt www-data 4096 Mar 2 20:37 static
drwxr-x--- 5 bedirt www-data 4096 Mar 2 20:37 users
drwxr-x--- 5 bedirt www-data 4096 Mar 2 20:37 venv


I am using pylatex to create a latex document, the procedure is - it runs latex compilation and removes the .tex file, and uploads the pdf on media folder.



Here is the code:



Output_tex.py



def create_worksheet_pdf(data, title):

 # Document with `maketitle` command activated
 doc = Document(default_filepath='../media/', documentclass='exam')
 # Title part

 doc.preamble.append(Command('headrule'))
 doc.preamble.append(Command('chead', '?'))
 doc.preamble.append(Command('lhead', '?'))
 doc.preamble.append(Command('rhead', '?'))

 # questions
 with doc.create(Section(title)):
 doc.append(Command('begin', 'questions'))
 for row in data:
 questionHead = r'question (' + row.year + '-' + row.source + '-' + row.problemNumber + ')\\'
 doc.append(NoEscape(questionHead))
 doc.append(NoEscape(r"" + row.problemStatement)) 
 doc.append(Command('end', 'questions'))
 # questions end

 # end
 doc.generate_pdf(filepath='media/'+title, clean_tex=True)


The filepath parts might be important in this file, so I couldn't use MEDIA_ROOT or MEDIA_URL since I get error. As can be seen on the permission I gave write access to apache (www-data) for both media and the db. My media files etc works fine on local, but I just uploaded to server and now i cant figure out why it is not working.



The error is:



PermissionError at /output/
[Errno 13] Permission denied: 'Momentum-Questions.tex'


And I did configure MEDIA_ROOT and MEDIA_URL, here it is:



Settings.py



MEDIA_ROOT = os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'media')
MEDIA_URL = '/media/'


  • Everything was working fine up until I added the craeting pdf part. So My conf file and stuff are fine, if there is nothing else is needs to added.





python django apache

  • Use absolute paths bases on the constants from the settings: os.path.join(settings.MEDIA_ROOT, title)
