Error running WSGI application, within pythonanywhere

Question

Good day to all,

I was having some issues trying to host my django webapp within pythonanywhere and I keep getting the following errors within the server. Sorry in advance I'm a beginner when it comes to programming

WSGI File:

# +++++++++++ DJANGO +++++++++++
# To use your own Django app use code like this:
import os
import sys

# assuming your Django settings file is at '/home/myusername/mysite/mysite/settings.py'

path = '/home/HumBen/AMC_Inventory/venv/src/src/settings.py'

if path not in sys.path:
    sys.path.insert(0, path)

os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'src.settings'

## Uncomment the lines below depending on your Django version
###### then, for Django >=1.5:
from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application
stockmgmt = get_wsgi_application()
###### or, for older Django <=1.4
#import django.core.handlers.wsgi
#application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler()

Server error:

Assuming that manage.py is in /home/HumBen/AMC_Inventory/venv/src, you should add this path to PYTHONPATH (here: via sys.path.insert call). Then, assuming that settings.py is in /home/HumBen/AMC_Inventory/venv/src/src your current DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE config should work. You need to change stockmgmt to application, as well. Also -- remember to edit the wsgi file that is linked to in your Web page on PythonAnywhere and reload the web app.
