Question
How can I setup New Relic to work with the Django single click install app
- Posted November 18, 2014
I have set up a Django app with the single click installer. I am trying to get New Relic to work with the upstart script. I try adding an export line for the NEW_RELIC_CONFIG_FILE variable before the exec command in /etc/init/gunicorn and then add newrelic-admin run-program before the gunicorn command but no data flows to New Relic. If I run the same command from the command line I get it to pass data to New Relic.
Any suggestions?

In an Upstart file, you can use an env stanza to export a variable. It would look like this using the Upstart config from the Django one-click:
description "Gunicorn daemon for Django project"
start on (local-filesystems and net-device-up IFACE=eth0)
stop on runlevel [!12345]
# If the process quits unexpectedly trigger a respawn
respawn
setuid django
setgid django
chdir /home/django
env NEW_RELIC_CONFIG_FILE=/path/to/newrelic.ini
exec /path/to/newrelic-admin run-program gunicorn \
--name=django_project \
--pythonpath=django_project \
--bind=0.0.0.0:9000 \
--config /etc/gunicorn.d/gunicorn.py \
django_project.wsgi:application

I am also trying to setup new relic with the django single click install. I cannot get data to report. Was I supposed to edit the upstart script and not the wsgi.py file? I keep reading people editing wsgi.py.
I was trying to follow https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/agents/python-agent/getting-started/python-agent-quick-start
