I have a ubuntu 12.04 droplet that is associated with one domain name. I already have a LAMP stack configured and am serving a php app at some location like www.domain.com/php/application/ I have been recently trying out django now and wish to deploy a home page at the same domain at www.domain.com. So is it possible for me to be running both python and php on the same server with python at www.domain.com and php at a sub url of the same domain or at a sub-domain such as php.domain.com? I would deeply appreciate a solution to this problem. thanks.

Yes, you would just take the current VirtualHost that you have defined for your PHP enabled website and update the ServerName directive to use:

ServerName php.domain.com

Then create a new virtual host for your django app:

ServerName domain.com
ServerAlias www.domain.com
WSGIScriptAlias / /home/username/public_html/domain1.com/MyTestProject.wsgi


And you should be all set.

You can also reference this article on the setup:

    Please, please do the tutorial about config python and php project at the same droplet server because a lot of people need it.
    Right now I really want to know how to config wordpress project (php) and flask (python) project at the same droplet.

    So image that 123.456.789.22 is my droplet IP then
    when I using 123.456.789.22/wordpress --> will be wordpress website.
    and 123.456.789.22/flask --> will be flask website.
