I'm developing a django website and am currently working on deploying. I'm following this tutorial. And im in the last stage of the tutorial (1:08:00 in the video). After he finished configuration th django-project.conf file he saves and everything is working, but me on the other hand, i get an:

Not Found

The requested URL / was not found on this server.

Apache/2.4.34 (Ubuntu) Server at **** Port 80

This is my projects .conf file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName _
    Redirect 404 /
    Alias /static /home/user/project/static
    <Directory /home/user/project/static>
        Require all granted
    </Directory>
    <Directory /home/user/project/project>
        <Files wsgi.py>
            Require all granted
        </Files>
    </Directory>
    WSGIScriptAlias / /home/user/project/project/wsgi.py
    WSGIDaemonProcess project_app python-path=/home/user/project python-home=/home/user/project/venv
    WSGIProcessGroup project_app
</VirtualHost>

This is my urls.py:

from django.contrib import admin
from django.urls import path, include
from . import views

urlpatterns = [
    path('admin/', admin.site.urls),
    path('', views.homepage),
    path('rh/', views.rh, name="rh"),
    path('gvt/', views.gvt, name="gvt"),
    path('fth/', views.fth, name="fth"),
    path('pages/', include('pages.urls')),
]

This is my wsgi.py

from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application
os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'excelsite.settings')
application = get_wsgi_application()

sys.path.append('/home/alexholst/excelsite')

This is the error.log (Couldnt copy, so i have this screenshot instead) here

alexholstv

why you are using Redirect 404 / ? in conf. file? – bmons Apr 26 '20 at 14:58
its something that was in the file from the beginning – alexholstv Apr 26 '20 at 14:59
I never put that in, should i take it out? – alexholstv Apr 26 '20 at 14:59
remove it and try – bmons Apr 26 '20 at 14:59
it gives a 500 server error now – alexholstv Apr 26 '20 at 15:00
see the error log – bmons Apr 26 '20 at 15:01
it shows the same error log as the pic that i linked in the post – alexholstv Apr 26 '20 at 15:02
change the debug to true and see what is the error – bmons Apr 26 '20 at 15:04
i changed it to true and it doesnt give any more info. Just Server Error (500) – alexholstv Apr 26 '20 at 15:05

sudo tail -100 /var/log/apache2/error.log , check the output – bmons Apr 26 '20 at 15:09
still the same as before – alexholstv Apr 26 '20 at 15:10
we are getting somewhere tho – alexholstv Apr 26 '20 at 15:10
if i type http://example.com/admin it works so i think it might be an error with my urls.py – alexholstv Apr 26 '20 at 15:12
sorry, i didnt save the file when doing debug = true. The error is TemplateDoesNotExist at / – alexholstv Apr 26 '20 at 15:16
ok, add the template – bmons Apr 26 '20 at 15:17
i already have the template – alexholstv Apr 26 '20 at 15:22
