Hi

Hope someone can help me here - I have a dashboard that works fine on my computer and I’m trying to deploy it to pythonanywhere.

My WGSI file on python anywhere looks like this:

```
import sys

# add your project directory to the sys.path
project_home = u'/home/chris369/mysite'
if project_home not in sys.path:
sys.path = [project_home] + sys.path

# import flask app but need to call it "application" for WSGI to work
from dashboard1 import app
application = app.server

```

And what I think are the relevant bits from dashboard1.py are:

```
app = dash.Dash()
server = app.server

<<<<< dash stuff >>>>>

if __name__ == ' __main__':
app.run_server()

```

I have done a fair amount of Googling and see similar issues but I’ve tried multiple suggestions and just not getting it?

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Chris

Hi @Asifkhan

The WGSI file looks correct in the OP.

Do you see any errors in the log files?
