I followed the 'How To Serve Django Applications with Apache and mod_wsgi on Ubuntu 14.04' tutorial to set up the University at Buffalo server. Note that the UB server is Centos 6 REHL, not Ubuntu 14.04.

Contact Dave Yearke at yearke@buffalo.edu if you need admin / UB server technical support, he is very familiar with the CrowdHydrology work.
