Please help with creating gunicorn systemd Service File

Question

I developed simple web page using django and for second week struggling trying to launch it. I have no background in server managing so everything I do is new to me. During my trials I have read countless tutorials and did not managed to get my website up and running (and it drives me insane). For now I am trying to follow this tutorial. I am at the part there I need to create Gunicorn systemd Service File, but because my project structure is little bit different I can't figure way how to do it correctly.

My project structure would be like this: user: gdmin

Everything held in parent folder named skdir and in subfolders within in it. Below I tried to visualize it in tree view structure (not all files shown, just the ones i thought important):

skdir/
     myenv/
          bin/
             gunicorn    
     STV_skaiciuokle/
                    skaiciuokle_web/
                                   manage.py
                                   skaiciuokle_web/
                                                  settings.py
                                   static/
                                         js
                                         css
                                         img
                                   media

To make everything more clear my manage.py file is in skdir/STV_skaiciuokle/skaiciuokle_web directory.

My current gunicorn.service configured like this (not working):

[Unit]
Description=gunicorn daemon
After=network.target

[Service]
User=gdmin
Group=www-data
WorkingDirectory=/home/gdmin/skdir
ExecStart=/home/gdmin/skdir/myenv/bin/gunicorn --access-logfile - --workers 3 --bind unix:/home/gdmin/skdir/STV_skaiciuokle/skaiciuokle_web/skaiciuokle_web.sock skaiciuokle_web.wsgi:application

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

How should I correct it?

Also can somebody recommend good tutorial on this, something like "deploy Django for dummies" level?

Answer 1

Finally got it running myself.

Problem was that socket file was not being created. During my research I noticed that init.py files were not present since then I uploaded my project to github it discarded them as empty and unnecessary. I fixed this and it seems that was the root of my problem in the first place. After this I finally got site up and running.

To think about it, probably this was a problem all along and other tutorials probably would had worked also...
