Any suggestions on how to run apache2.4+ mod_wsgi with python3.5 on CentOS 7 are very welcome!
I tried following Carl's answer, but it didn't solve the problem. It turns out that the version I installed required some extra configuration steps after installation.
I looked at Apache's modules
folder before I installed the mod_wsgi
upgrade:
$ ls -l /lib64/httpd/modules
[...]
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 172800 Oct 30 22:44 mod_wsgi.so
Then I installed the SCL repository, and looked to see which versions of mod_wsgi
are available.
$ sudo yum install -q -y centos-release-scl
[...]
$ yum search mod_wsgi
[...]

I'm using Python 3.6, so I installed the matching version and restarted Apache.
$ sudo yum install -q -y rh-python36-mod_wsgi
[...]
$ sudo systemctl restart httpd
Sadly, that didn't solve the problem. When I looked in Apache's modules
folder, nothing had changed. Weird!
$ ls -l /lib64/httpd/modules
[...]
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 172800 Oct 30 22:44 mod_wsgi.so
So what did get installed?
$ rpm -ql rh-python36-mod_wsgi
/opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/10-rh-python36-wsgi.conf
/opt/rh/httpd24/root/usr/lib64/httpd/modules/mod_rh-python36-wsgi.so
/opt/rh/rh-python36/root/usr/share/doc/rh-python36-mod_wsgi-4.5.18
/opt/rh/rh-python36/root/usr/share/doc/rh-python36-mod_wsgi-4.5.18/CREDITS.rst
/opt/rh/rh-python36/root/usr/share/doc/rh-python36-mod_wsgi-4.5.18/LICENSE
/opt/rh/rh-python36/root/usr/share/doc/rh-python36-mod_wsgi-4.5.18/README.rst
It installed the files I need, but it didn't put them anywhere useful. With some hints from the README.rst
file, I copied them into the right place.
sudo cp /opt/rh/httpd24/root/usr/lib64/httpd/modules/mod_rh-python36-wsgi.so /lib64/httpd/modules
sudo cp /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/10-rh-python36-wsgi.conf /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d
sudo systemctl restart httpd
Now I have the right version of mod_wsgi
, and my Django app will run under Apache.
I see you already have the IUS repo enabled. Rather than jumping through SCL hoops, you can just install a normal package.
yum install python35u-mod_wsgi
This will use standard filesystem locations to work with stock Apache HTTPD 2.4.
/etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/10-wsgi-python3.5.conf
/usr/lib64/httpd/modules/mod_wsgi_python3.5.so
Have you check the rh-python35 Software Collection which provides a rh-python35-mod_wsgi package ?
More information about SCL, see:
I would use the SCL packages for python 3.6 (though feel free to substitute 3.5 below).
To start:
yum install centos-release-scl
yum install rh-python36 rh-python36-mod_wsgi
Note that will bring in the SCL package httpd24-httpd
and put the mod_wsgi file in that installation. I would recommend you use that installation and not install the base CentOS httpd
package. At time of writing, for CentOS 7, the httpd
package is 2.4.6 and the httpd24-httpd
package is 2.4.37.
Then you create a virtualenv with:
/opt/rh/rh-python36/root/usr/bin/python -m venv /path/to/venv36
source /path/to/venv36/bin/activate
pip install ...
Now you can put the config for your site in /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/conf.d/mysite.conf
, which could contain something like:
<VirtualHost *:80>
LoadModule wsgi_module modules/mod_wsgi.so
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd24/mysite-err.log
CustomLog /var/log/httpd24/mysite.log combined
# recommended way of setting DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE http://stackoverflow.com/a/25496668/3189
WSGIProcessGroup mysite.settings.production
WSGIDaemonProcess mysite.settings.production python-path=/path/to/mysite/:/path/to/venv36/lib/python3.6/site-packages
WSGIScriptAlias / /path/to/mysite/wsgi.py process-group=mysite application-group=%{GLOBAL}
</VirtualHost>
Now you start the SCL apache with:
systemctl start httpd24-httpd
And your site should be working.
