nano /var/www/pyscada/PyScadaServer/PyScadaServer/urls.py
...
from django.conf.urls import url, include
from django.contrib import admin

urlpatterns = [
    url(r'^admin/', admin.site.urls),
    url(r'^', include('pyscada.core.urls')),
]
...

settings.py

Open the django settings file and make the following modifications. See also the django documentation for more Information.

nano /var/www/pyscada/PyScadaServer/PyScadaServer/settings.py

First deactivate the debugging, if debugging is active django will keep all SQL queries in the ram, the data-acquisition runs a massive amount of queries so your system will run fast out of memory. Keep in mind to restart gunicorn and the pysada daemons after you change the debugging state.

DEBUG = False

Add the host/domain of your machine, in this case every url that point to a ip of the machine is allowed.

ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['*']

Add PyScada and the PyScada sub-apps to the installed apps list of Django.

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...
    'pyscada',
    'pyscada.modbus',
    'pyscada.phant',
    'pyscada.visa',
    'pyscada.hmi',
    'pyscada.systemstat',
    'pyscada.export',
    'pyscada.onewire',
    'pyscada.smbus',
]

To use the MySQL Database, fill in the database, the user and password as selected in the create Database section.

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE':   'django.db.backends.mysql',
        'NAME':     'PyScada_db',
        'USER':     'PyScada-user',
        'PASSWORD': 'PyScada-user-password',
        'OPTIONS': {
            'init_command': "SET sql_mode='STRICT_TRANS_TABLES'",
        }
    }
}

Set the static file and media dir as follows.

...
STATIC_URL = '/static/'

STATIC_ROOT = '/var/www/pyscada/http/static/'

MEDIA_URL = '/media/'

MEDIA_ROOT = '/var/www/pyscada/http/media/'

Add all PyScada specific settings, keep in mind to set the file right file encoding in the settings.py file header (see also https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0263/).

# -*- coding: <encoding name> -*-
