I have a django (1.6.x) project that runs fine with the dev server, but is failing under Apache2 (2.2.22.1) and mod_wsgi (3.3-4) on Ubuntu 12.04.3 with the error
ImproperlyConfigured: The included urlconf erp.urls doesn't have any patterns in it
I don't understand why it would work with the dev server but not Apache2/mod_wsgi and I'm finding it difficult to track down where the error is coming from.
There are a number of other SO questions similar, but the only place I use reverse (one problem previously found) is in get_absolute_url in my models - this should be fine?
The project is set up a la Two Scoops style, in particular the layout is:
<repository_root>/<django_project_root>/<configuration_root>/
which translates to:
erp_root/erp/erp/
and the settings are
erp_root/erp/erp/settings/*py (including the __init__.py)
erp/urls.py;
from django.conf import settings
from django.conf.urls import patterns, include, url
