How can I tell Phusion Passenger which python to use?

问题

I'm using Phusion Passenger with a ruby app and I'd also like to set it up to work with an django appengine app I'm working on.

Googling for "passenger_wsgi.py" I was able to get the following very simple non-django app working on passenger:

passenger_wsgi.py:

def application(environ, start_response):
   response_headers = [('Content-type','text/plain')]
   start_response('200 OK', response_headers)
   return ['Hello World!\n']

However, if I add the line import django.core.handlers.wsgi into the mix, I get 'An error occurred importing your passenger_wsgi.py'. By printing out the sys.path I've discovered that at least part of the reason is because Passenger is using the wrong python installation on my machine.

How can I configure Passenger (on apache) to use /opt/local/bin/python2.5 instead of the system default python?

回答1:

I discovered that if I changed the hashbang at the first line of passenger's request_handler.py file to #!/opt/local/bin/python2.5, passenger used the correct python. But surely there must be a better way than modifying passenger's distribution?

回答2:

One trick is to include a line like this in your passenger_wsgi.py file:

if sys.version < "2.4":  
     os.execl("/usr/bin/python2.4", "python2.4", *sys.argv)

INTERP = "/usr/local/bin/python"  
    if sys.executable != INTERP:  
        os.execl(INTERP, INTERP, *sys.argv)

Each of these basically tells the environment to use your preferred python.

You can specify the python interpreter via the PassengerPython variable in the server config, virtual host, directory, or .htaccess file.

apache: PassengerPython

nginx: passenger_python

standalone: --python
