Django Deployment Problem

[DoktorSoosMann]

In on of my Django view´s I am making a request to another webserver via requests, this code works perfect when I run the it with the development server. It looks like that:

import requests
r = requests.post('http://www.example.org')
return r.text

But when I Deploy this with the apaches server it throws this error:

Error:
ConnectionError
HTTPConnectionPool(host='www.example.com', port=80): Max retries exceeded 
with url: / (Caused by NewConnectionError('<urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection 
object at 0x7f23e917ba58>:Failed to establish a new connection:[Errno -2] 
Name or Service not known'))

But I can run the code as root user on the Deployment server without a problem this is why i think it is a permission problem. But i have no Idea how to solve this.
Thanks in advance!
