I am using the Django OpenLiteSpeed One-Click app. I can’t get OpenLiteSpeed beyond the example site.
I get 503 or it just keeps loading. In the log I get: Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘encodings’
All I need to do to break it is set the example to use Mysql.
If you change back to sqllite3 it works fine. I know it work because if i use the django test server “python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000” so the venv is setup correctly.
I have tried adding to the context: PYTHONHOME=/usr/local/lsws/Example/venv/ LS_PYTHONBIN=/usr/local/lsws/Example/venv/bin/python Any Ideas?

HI
How about keep PYTHONHOME=/usr/local/lsws/Example/venv/ only in the Environment?
