Django (IIS) deployed, logging issue - django

Question

I deployed django app on IIS, however my logging code that was working perfectly on local host, caused server 500 error...
Can I get any help please?
LOGGING = {
'version': 1,
'loggers': {
'django': {
'handlers': ['debuglog'],
'level': 'DEBUG'
},
'django.server': {
'handlers': ['errorlog'],
'level': 'ERROR'
}
},
'handlers': {
'debuglog': {
'level': 'DEBUG',
'class': 'logging.FileHandler',
'filename': './logs/debug.log',
'formatter': 'simple',
},
'errorlog': {
'level': 'ERROR',
'class': 'logging.FileHandler',
'filename': './logs/error.log',
'formatter': 'simple',
}
},
'formatters': {
'simple': {
'format': '{levelname} {message}',
'style': '{',
}
}
}
Maybe IIS does not allow django to create log files and it needs permission to do so? If this is the case, how would I do that?

Answer 1

you can follow the below steps to deploy the Django site in iis:
1)Add the site with your project root path in iis.
2)Select site-> Doble clcik handler mappings. Click “Add Module Mapping…” from the actions selection on the right.
3)Set request path to * and Module to FastCgiModule.
set executable:
C:\Python39\Scripts\python.exeC:\Python39\Lib\site-packages\wfastcgi.py
4)Now back to the server node and select the fast cgi module.
add below environment variable:
DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE = “path to your settings”
WSGI_HANDLER = django.core.wsgi.get_wsgi_application()
PYTHONPATH = “path to your repo-root e.g. C:\inetpub\wwwroot\djangosite”
Do not forget to assign iis_iusrs and iusr permission to the site root folder and python folder.
check the log folder permission too.
