Activating the Flask debugger when running under mod_wsgi

Question

How can I activate the Flask debugger when running under mod_wsgi?

I have DEBUG, PROPAGATE_EXCEPTION and PRESERVE_CONTEXT_ON_EXCEPTIO

As described in the Flask documentation at:

http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/quickstart/#debug-mode

use:

app.debug = True

Under mod_wsgi you aren't doing the app.run() though.

Ensure you are setting 'app.debug' at global scope and not in a conditional section where checking whether __name__ is __main__.
