From Installing mod_wsgi for django we know we have to

ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['student.com']
WSGI_APPLICATION = 'student_als.wsgi.application'

Now we have to

TIME_ZONE = 'Asia/Singapore'

Switch from SQlite to mysql with this

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql', 
        'NAME': 'dbblog',
        'USER': 'tidak',
        'PASSWORD': 't35nang12',
        'HOST': 'localhost',   
        'PORT': '3306',
    }    
}

You can add another database too perhaps a read only one.

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql', 
        'NAME': 'student',
        'USER': 'anoneh',
        'PASSWORD': 'MrsLKY1',
        'HOST': 'localhost',   
        'PORT': '3306',
        }
    },
    'eauthor': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
        'NAME': 'LMS_contents',
        'USER': 'anoneh',
        'PASSWORD': 'MrsLKY1',
        'HOST': 'localhost',
        'PORT': '3306',
        'OPTIONS': {
            'init_command': "SET sql_mode='STRICT_TRANS_TABLES'"
        }
    }
}

For any new app created. Take note the case for the Config, it is
'polls.apps.PollsConfig' and not 'polls.apps.pollsConfig'.

INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
'rest_framework',
'polls.apps.PollsConfig',
'napi.apps.NapiConfig',
]

LOGIN_URL = 'login'
LOGIN_REDIRECT_URL = 'innerpage'

EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend'
EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.office365.com'
EMAIL_PORT = 587
EMAIL_USE_TLS = True
EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'bill@gates.edu.sg'
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'MrLK1sUgly'
DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = 'Mr. Softee <whgates@gates.edu.sg>'

STATIC_ROOT = "/var/www/dblog/static/"
