How can I rebuild mod_wsgi to use python 2.7.3?

Question

I use mod_wsgi to serve the django site, but I have an internal server error. Here's the apache log:

[Fri May 31 10:11:25 2013] [error] python_init: Python version mismatch, expected '2.7.2+', found '2.7.3'. [Fri May 31 10:11:25 2013] [error] python_init: Python executable found '/usr/bin/python'. [Fri May 31 10:11:25 2013] [error] python_init: Python path being used '/usr/lib/python2.7/:/usr/lib/python2.7/plat-linux2:/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-tk:/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-old:/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload'. [Fri May 31 10:11:25 2013] [warn] mod_wsgi: Compiled for Python/2.7.2+. [Fri May 31 10:11:25 2013] [warn] mod_wsgi: Runtime using Python/2.7.3. [Fri May 31 10:11:25 2013] [notice] Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu) DAV/2 mod_fcgid/2.3.6 mod_python/3.3.1 Python/2.7.3 mod_ssl/2.2.22 OpenSSL/1.0.1 mod_wsgi/3.3 mod_perl/2.0.5 Perl/v5.14.2 configured -- resuming normal operations 

So it seems that there is a mismatch between the mod_wsgi version and the python version at runtime. How can I update this?

Answer 1

You must compile mod_wsgi from the source and reinstall.

Most likely simple:

 $ ./configure $ make $ sudo make install 

The mod_wsgi documentation details this.

Answer 2

I did not have to compile from the source, this helped me:

 $ apt-get remove libapache2-mod-python libapache2-mod-wsgi $ apt-get build-dep libapache2-mod-python libapache2-mod-wsgi 

Answer 3

Remember to check that the wsgi.load and wsgi.conf files are still listed in the apache2 configuration. For Ubuntu (and probably Debian), this means that there is a symlink from / etc / apache 2 / mods available for / etc / apache2 / mods-enabled.

Had the same problem that was solved by using virtual environments.

To configure: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-run-django-with-mod_wsgi-and-apache-with-a-virtualenv-python-environment-on-a-debian-vps Just follow the same steps, configure virtualenv in the same folder as in my django application.

The following virtual host configuration is completed:

 <Directory /storage/sandbox/www/django/sampleapp/static> Allow from all Order deny,allow </Directory> <Directory /storage/sandbox/www/django/sampleapp/media> Allow from all Order deny,allow </Directory> WSGIScriptAlias / /storage/sandbox/www/django/sampleapp/sampleapp/wsgi.py WSGIPythonPath /storage/sandbox/www/django/sampleapp/:/storage/sandbox/www/django/env/lib/python2.7/site-packages <Directory /storage/sandbox/www/django/sampleapp/sampleapp> <Files wsgi.py> Allow from all Order deny,allow </Files> </Directory>
