I have following Apache configuration and my application is working fine:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName ig-test.example.com
WSGIScriptAlias / /home/ig-test/src/repository/django.wsgi
WSGIDaemonProcess ig-test user=ig-test
</VirtualHost>
But I want to protect my files from other users, so I do:
chown ig-test /home/ig-test/ -R
chmod og-rwx /home/ig-test/ -R
And application stops working:
(13)Permission denied: /home/ig-test/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable
Is it possible to achieve what i'm doing with wsgi? If I have to give read permissions to some files it will be fine. But there are files I have to protect (like file with DB configuration or business logic of application).
