mod-wsgi

What to use for a medium to large python WSGI application, Apache + mod_wsgi or Nginx + mod_wsgi? Which combination will need more memory and CPU time? Which one is faster? Which is known for being more stable than the other? I am also thinking to use CherryPy's WSGI server but I hear it's not very suitable for a very high-load application, what do you know about this? Note : I didn't use any Python Web Framework, I just wrote the whole thing from scratch. Note' : Other suggestions are also welcome. For nginx/mod_wsgi, ensure you read: http://blog.dscpl.com.au/2009/05/blocking-requests-and

I had apache 2.4 already installed with xampp.I tried adding mod_wsgi using the steps mentioned here But when I add the line LoadModule wsgi_module modules/mod_wsgi-py34-vc10.so Apache does not start. Graham Dumpleton It is better to build mod_wsgi yourself from code rather than use an arbitrary binary off the net. The steps are as follows. Ensure you have a decent Apache installation which includes header files, e.g. Apache 2.4.37 Win64 from Apache Lounge . Preferably installed at location of C:/Apache24 . Ensure your Python installation is set up so that you can pip install modules. This

I'm using Apache 2.2.15 on CentOS 6.5. I'm trying to set up a Django app using mod_wsgi. I'm using a virtual environment, and mod_wsgi was configured with --with-python=/path/to/virtualenv/bin/python3.4 . I've added this to my httpd.conf : WSGIPythonPath /srv/myproject:/path/to/virtualenv/lib/python3.4/site-packages WSGIPythonHome /path/to/virtualenv <VirtualHost *:80> WSGIScriptAlias / /srv/myproject/myproject/wsgi.py ... </VirtualHost> In wsgi.py , I added sys.path.insert(1, "/path/to/virtualenv/lib/python3.4/site-packages") The problem is that when I try to open the app in my browser, it

I'm trying to get WSGI to run with a virtualenv setup. I have the virtualenv all working right: (virtualenv)dev:/var/www/app$ which python /var/www/virtualenv/bin/python (virtualenv)dev:/var/www/app$ python Python 2.6.1 (r261:67515, Dec 5 2008, 22:09:34) [GCC 4.1.2] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import importlib >>> And in my httpd.conf, I have the following, as described here : WSGIPythonHome /var/www/virtualenv WSGIPythonPath /var/www/virtualenv/lib/python2.6/site-packages But when I try to load the app via apache, i get the following

This is kind of a continuation of this question, but it has deviated so I started a new one. I'd like to use Python 2.5 instead of OS X's default 2.6. I've set this up for my terminal and whatnot, but whenever apache runs it gives me the following error output: [Thu Jun 23 00:01:42 2011] [warn] Init: Session Cache is not configured [hint: SSLSessionCache] [Thu Jun 23 00:01:42 2011] [warn] mod_wsgi: Compiled for Python/2.5.4.

I've got a basic "hello world" Flask app running. I'm on Ubuntu 14.04, using Apache 2.4. I've installed mod_wsgi. I've created a ~/web/piFlask/venv/ to hold a virtualenv-created Python2 with flask installed. However, I wish to have my flaskapp import a Python3.x module I have written. What do I need to do to make this happen? I tried creating a ~/web/piFlask/venv3/ and modifying ~/web/piFlask/piFlask.wsgi : import os, sys PROJECT_DIR = '/home/pi/web/piFlask' activate_this = os.path.join(PROJECT_DIR, 'venv3/bin', 'activate_this.py') execfile(activate_this, dict(__file__=activate_this)) sys.path

Disclaimer : I do know that there are several similar questions on SO. I think I've read most if not all of them, but did not find an answer to my real question (see later). I also do know that using celery or other asynchronous queue systems is the best way to achieve long running tasks - or at least use a cron-managed script. There's also mod_wsgi doc about processes and threads but I'm not sure I got it all correct. The question is: what are the exact risks/issues involved with using the solutions listed down there? Is any of them viable for long running tasks (ok, even though celery is
