EDIT: I had installed django with non-root user, now I reinstall it as root user and It works. Thanks everyone

If you think you have already installed Django, how did you install it? If you used pip, did you use the pip in /home/user/.local/lib/python3.4/? — Alasdair

It seems like you are missing django. This error is returned by wsgi not django. You can check using pip freeze. Make sure django is listed in the output of pip freeze. Else install django with pip using command

pip install django

It is always recommended to use virtual environment to avoid messing up with global dependencies. If working in a virtual environment does not create any problems for you, then go for virtual environment.

In my guess, adding path to wsgi.py may help:

import os import sys from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application path = '/path/to/your/project' if path not in sys.path: sys.path.append(path) os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "project.settings") application = get_wsgi_application()
