Using iRedMail with a django site on the same server - django

Question

I am trying to create a small django site and use iRedMail for e-mail. I installed iRedMail first, and ensured that it worked. I could go to both www.domain.com/iredadmin and www.domain.com/mail and have it work perfectly. My next step was to install my django site and configure Apache. Unfortunately, this caused my django site to try and handle /mail/ and /iredadmin/. I've been fidgeting with the config for a few hours now and have no idea what to do. Here are the settings:
apache2.conf:
# Defaults...
WSGIPythonPath /path/to/website.com/website
sites-enabled/website.com:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName website.in
ServerAlias www.website.in
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
Alias /static /path/to/website.com/website/static
Alias /media /path/to/website.com/website/media
Alias /mail /usr/share/apache2/roundcubemail/
Alias /admin /usr/share/apache2/iredadmin/
<Directory /usr/share/apache2/roundcubemail/>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
WSGIScriptAlias / /path/to/website.com/website/website.wsgi
<Location "/">
SetHandler python-program
PythonHandler django.core.handlers.modpython
SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE website.settings
PythonDebug Off
PythonPath "['/path/to/website.com/website/']+sys.path"
</Location>
<Directory /path/to/website.com/website>
<Files wsgi.py>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Files>
</Directory>
<Directory /path/to/website.com/website/static>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
<Location /static/>
SetHandler None
</Location>
<Directory /path/to/website.com/website/media>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
<Location /media/>
SetHandler None
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
The django website displays fine, although I have been getting internal server errors.

You are trying to use both mod_wsgi and mod_python to handle the Django site at the same time, with mod_python overriding mod_wsgi. Choose one of the other. Since mod_python is no longer developed or supported and support for it in Django deprecated, probably not a good option to keep using it.
The next thing which is wrong is:
Alias /mail /usr/share/apache2/roundcubemail/
Alias /admin /usr/share/apache2/iredadmin/
Remove the trailing slashes:
Alias /mail /usr/share/apache2/roundcubemail
Alias /admin /usr/share/apache2/iredadmin
Even then it will still not work, because when using mod_python you have to tell mod_python not to handle those paths.
<Location /mail/>
SetHandler None
</Location>
<Location /admin/>
SetHandler None
</Location>
A further problem you may have is that /admin is usually used for the Django admin interface and you are overriding that.
