I'm trying to migrate a functional Django application from Webfaction to OpalStack. The app works just fine when I run it using python manage.py runserver. However, once I try to set up the uWSGI server using the uwsgi.ini file provided by OpalStack, it simply cannot find my Django settings module! The really, really bizzarre thing is that if I hack the uwsgi.py file in my Django application, the Django application is properly being added to sys.path. I have the following in the uwsgi.ini file (yes, the dailycues/dailycues is correct based on my project structure):

python-path = /home/bburan/apps/dc_dev/dailycues/dailycues

Then, in the uwsgi.py file I have added the following:

import sys
print(sys.path)

from dailycues.settings import base
print(base)

In the uWSGI log, I see the following output:

added /home/bburan/apps/dc_dev/dailycues/dailycues/ to pythonpath.

# From print(sys.path)
['/home/bburan/apps/dc_dev/dailycues/dailycues/', '.', '', '/usr/lib64/python36.zip', '/usr/lib64/python3.6', '/usr/lib64/python3.6/lib-dynload', '/home/bburan/apps/dc_dev/env/lib64/python3.6/site-packages', '/home/bburan/apps/dc_dev/env/lib/python3.6/site-packages']

# from print(development)
<module 'dailycues.settings.base' from '/home/bburan/apps/dc_dev/dailycues/dailycues/dailycues/settings/base.py'>

But then, I get the following error after all of that has successfully executed (i.e., pythonpath is set properly and my settings module is importable) and Django's get_wsgi_application() is called!

This is pretty perplexing to me. It seems that somehow the python path is getting messed up. Any pointers?
