I am trying to get a basic site running under Apache 2. In the end, I use mod_wsgi to serve the django application, but at the moment I started with a really simple version of the default virtual host, currently just showing the list of / var / www directories. The problem I am facing is that the server does not seem to see the directory "/ var / www / mysite". Browsing www.mysite.com/ gives me a list as expected in the / var / www directory, but shows only files, not directories.
Please someone tell me if there is something obvious that I'm not here.
Thank you in advance
