How do I make my droplet run Django from my virtualenv?

Posted on January 31, 2015

I did the 1-click Ubuntu/Django install. I’m trying however to run my Django project I migrated over which is contained within a virtualenv. Is there a config file with wsgi or nginx I need to edit to “point” it at virtualenv? I currently have my project migrated over but when I visit the IP for the droplet, all I see is the generic “congratulations on your first django page” message. What am I doing wrong?
