how can i resolve the default apache page for django with apache - django

Question

im new at deploying and i've been trying to deploy my django app and i can only seem to get the default :"it works" page to work. i have followed a few tutorials to no luck.
my '/etc/apache2/sites-available/37.***.22.**' Virtual host:
`<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster#37.***.22.**
ServerName 37.***.22.**
DocumentRoot /var/www/37.***.22.**/public_html
<Directory />

allow from all
</Directory>
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/

ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log

WSGI file:
import os
import sys
import site
# Add the site-packages of the chosen virtualenv to work with
site.addsitedir('~/.virtualenvs/myprojectenv/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages')
# Add the app's directory to the PYTHONPATH
sys.path.append('~/MyProject/django-bookmarks')
sys.path.append('~/MyProject/django-bookmarks/django_bookmarks')
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'django_bookmarks.settings'
# Activate your virtual env
activate_env=os.path.expanduser("~/.virtualenvs/myprojectenv/bin/activate_this.$
execfile(activate_env, dict(__file__=activate_env))
import django.core.handlers.wsgi
application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler()
i had SCP'ed my files for my djagno app into the MyProject dir on the server.
i also ran the a2ensite 37.***.22.25 and restarted apache, but even with that i still get the "it works" default page. how can i resolve this?
i had also installed Postfgress. i really want to deploy this app asap and have been struggling, and learning alot also at the same time! any advise would be appreciated.
thanks in advance.

Make sure that you have mod_wsgi installed and enabled for Apache.
You will also want to ensure that you have defined both WSGIProcessGroup and WSGIScriptAlias (configuration directives for mod_wsgi) for the virtual host.
