   In order to set up a subdomain served by an apache virtual host I simply specify "ServerName" and the appropriate "DocumentRoot" within a *.conf file in the vhosts directory.

   I am running a mediacore instance with mediacore.wsgi and cannot figure out the right way to define those variables in "mediacore.conf" (for a virtual server with a URL pointing to a subdomain).

   Can someone help? Thank's,

   What's 'mediacore.conf'? By default MediaCore uses configuration files named 'development.ini'/'deployment.in'. Assuming that 'mediacore.conf' is actually a 'deployment.ini' with a different name, then there is nothing you have to do there.

   MediaCore will detect the hostname itself, you don't have to specify it.

   Oops! I have the usual "deployment.ini" in the mediacore directory and I thought that I need a "mediacore.conf" configuration file in the vhost directory of the apache server to define a subdomain:

   WSGIDaemonProcess mcore \
   threads=10 \
   display-name=%{GROUP} \
   python-path=/xxx/xxx/mediacore/mediacore_env/lib/python2.6/site-packages \
   python-eggs=/xxx/xxx/MediaCore-0.9.0/data/python-egg-cache

   WSGIProcessGroup mcore

   # Intercept all requests to /my_media/* and pass them to mediacore.wsgi
   WSGIScriptAlias /mediacore /xxxx/xxx/MediaCore-0.9.0/deployment-scripts/mod_wsgi/mediacore.wsgi
   #WSGIScriptAlias /mediacore /xxxx/xxxx/MediaCore-0.9.0/deployment-scripts/mod_wsgi/mediacore.wsgi

   #Make the url accessible (just in case it's not already)
   <Location "/mediacore">
   Allow from all
   RedirectMatch ^/mediacore$ /mediacore/
   </Location>

   # Make the wsgi script accessible
   <Directory /xxxx/xxxx/MediaCore-0.9.0/deployment-scripts/mod_wsgi>
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
   </Directory>

   # Create an exception for media and podcast image from your data directory
   AliasMatch /mediacore/images/(media|podcasts)(.*) /xxxx/xxxx/MediaCore-0.9.0/data/images/$1$2

   # Create an exception for all static mediacore content
   AliasMatch /mediacore/(admin/)?(images|scripts|styles)(.*) /xxxx/x/MediaCore-0.9.0/mediacore/public/$1$2$3

   # Create an exception for your custom appearance css and images
   Alias /mediacore/appearance /xxxx/xxxx/MediaCore-0.9.0/data/appearance

   # Make all the static content accessible
   <Directory /xxxx/xxxx/MediaCore-0.9.0/mediacore/public/*>
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all
   Options -Indexes
   </Directory>

   Follow an Apache's VirtualHost file, with subdomain tv.youdomain.com, fully functional in Ubuntu Lucid - Apache 2.2 (adjust with your mediacore system settings):

   <VirtualHost *:80>
   ServerAlias tv.yourdomain.com
   ServerAdmin webmaster@yourdomain.com
   ServerSignature On

   CustomLog /var/log/apache2/tv-access.log combined
   ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/tv-error.log
   LogLevel warn

   #BandwidthModule On
   #ForceBandWidthModule On
   #BandWidth all 400000
   #MinBandWidth all -1

   # You can tweak the WSGIDaemonProcess directive for performance, but this
   # will work for now.
   # Relevant doc pages:
   # http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/ProcessesAndThreading

   # Hint: pay attention to issues surrounding worker-mpm and prefork-mpm.

   WSGIDaemonProcess mcore \
   threads=10 \
   display-name=%{GROUP} \
   python-path=/opt/mediacore_env/lib/python2.6/site-packages \
   python-eggs=/media/data/python-egg-cache
