Comments on How to run Python Scripts with Apache and mod_wsgi on Ubuntu 20.04

Does tis work for Debian 10 ?

Thanks a lot Hitesh,

It worked as expected!

My setup: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Thanks a lot Hitesh, a good guide.

Just, I suggest addition 2 steps:

1.- After change ownership to wsgy.py, I changed file permission to 775 too

   $ sudo chmod -R 775 /var/www/html/wsgy.py

2.- After enable mod-wsgi configuration, I created a simlink of wsgi.conf to conf-enabled directory:

   $ sudo ln -s /etc/apache2/conf-available/wsgi.conf /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/wsgi.conf

Then, I restarted apache and voula, running perfect.

The symlink you added manually gets added by the command "a2enconf wsgi", you might have missed executing this command from the tutorial.

hi how to do this with my own flask application

i really strugling this would be really helpful!

Hello,

During the setup I was facing a little issue: Apache Server threw an error because of the type of response returned by the application function.

Here is the trace:

TypeError: sequence of byte string values expected, value of type str found

So I had to change the return statement by adding encode("utf-8") to the html variable.
