Im getting this in the logs

Any more information you might need let me know... what might be wrong here?

Thank you all.

There should be an error.log file that gives you more info — Pekka

You need to add an Alias to your static folder in your apache conf (https://gist.github.com/d838c1923729afddf24a) so that your static files get delivered by apache and not mod_wsgi

like so:

<VirtualHost *:80>
WSGIDaemonProcess maumercado user=maumercado group=maumercado processes=1 threads=10 python-path=/home/maumercado/venvs/maublog/lib/python2.6/site-packages
ServerName www.maumercado.com
ServerAdmin [email protected]

Alias /static/  /path/to/folder/static/

WSGIScriptAlias / /home/maumercado/code/django/maublog/mingus/deploy/maublog.wsgi
WSGIProcessGroup maumercado

<Directory "/home/maumercado/code/django/maublog/mingus/deploy/">
    Allow from all
</Directory>

ErrorLog /var/log/maublog/apache_error.log
LogLevel warn
CustomLog /var/log/maublog/apache_access.log common
ServerSignature On
