Dash deployed on apache server failing with “Dash object not callable”

问题

I'm trying to deploy a python dash app to my apache server. I followed the scant amount of information about this configuration that I could find (officials docs; this troubleshooting thread was a bit better). When I visit the website, the page returns a 500 Internal Server Error, which is described as "Dash object not callable" in the server error log. These are the config files:

>> cat /var/www/html/wsgi/dashGAF.wsgi
#!/usr/bin/python
import sys
sys.path.insert(0,"/home/ubuntu/dashboards/")
from dashGAF import app as application

>> cat /etc/apache2/sites-available/dash.conf 
WSGIDaemonProcess dashGAF user=ubuntu group=ubuntu home=/home/ubuntu threads=5
WSGIScriptAlias /dashGAF /var/www/html/wsgi/dashGAF.wsgi
    <Directory /home/ubuntu/dashboards>
        WSGIProcessGroup dashGAF
            WSGIApplicationGroup %{GLOBAL}
            WSGIScriptReloading On
        Require all granted
    </Directory>

>> cat dashGAF.py
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import dash
import dash_core_components as dcc
import dash_html_components as html

external_stylesheets = ['https://codepen.io/chriddyp/pen/bWLwgP.css']

app = dash.Dash(__name__, external_stylesheets=external_stylesheets, routes_pathname_prefix='/dashGAF/')
server = app.server

app.layout = html.Div(children=[
    html.H1(children='Hello Dash'),

    html.Div(children='''
        Dash: A web application framework for Python.
    '''),

    dcc.Graph(
        id='example-graph',
        figure={
            'data': [
                {'x': [1, 2, 3], 'y': [4, 1, 2], 'type': 'bar', 'name': 'SF'},
                {'x': [1, 2, 3], 'y': [2, 4, 5], 'type': 'bar', 'name': u'Montréal'},
            ],
            'layout': {
                'title': 'Dash Data Visualization'
            }
        }
    )
])

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run_server(debug=True, host='0.0.0.0')

When I visit my dash app at the_ip_address/dashGAF, I get a 500 Internal Server Error. Inspecting the error.log I see:

[Sat Jun 20 04:42:59.502528 2020] [wsgi:error] [pid 6064:tid 140622992238336] [client 118.210.193.245:50042] mod_wsgi (pid=6064): Exception occurred processing WSGI script '/var/www/html/wsgi/dashGAF.wsgi'.

Any help in fixing this issue would be GREATLY appreciated! Also any suggestions for changes to the configuration files would be helpful.

Some more details:

I was getting a module import error, such as the below in my /var/log/apache2/error.log:

[Sat Jun 20 03:38:58.556219 2020] [wsgi:error] [pid 583:tid 140297735726848] [client 118.210.193.245:55574]   File "/home/ubuntu/dashboards/dashGAF.py", line 2, in <module>

Which I was able to fix by doing a sudo pip install dash==1.13.2.

I have made all *.py and *.wsgi files -rwxr-xr-x
I enabled the site config with sudo a2ensite dash.conf and reloaded config with udo systemctl reload apache2.
I believe the version of python being run is python2.7 (based on the apache error.log); Not sure exactly how to specify 2.7 or 3.
If I edit the dashGAF.wsgi to have from dashGAF import server as application I get a 500 Internal error, but with the following details in the server log:

[Sun Jun 21 06:33:28.181450 2020] [wsgi:error] [pid 12237:tid 139670549669632] [client 118.210.193.245:52221] mod_wsgi (pid=12237): Target WSGI script '/var/www/html/wsgi/dashGAF.wsgi' cannot be loaded as Python module.

Possibly there is a useful detail in the bit where it says "Target WSGI script '/var/www/html/wsgi/dashGAF.wsgi' cannot be loaded as Python module." ??

If I edit the dashGAF.wsgi to have application = app.server I get a 404 Not Foun:

from dashGAF import app
application = app.server

回答1:

Typically, you would target the Flask server rather than the Dash app in the wsgi script. That is, instead of

from dashGAF import app as application

it should be

from dashGAF import server as application

回答2:

I've hesitated a little bit on whether I should answer my own question. @emher 's answer was part of the problem - but not the whole solution. I needed to fix a few problems, and much of that troubleshooting was guided by @GrahamDumpleton on github. I'm more than happy for him to provide the answer if he wants.

Nevertheless, here are the problems and fixes that needed to occur:

problems and fixes:

Target the Flask server as @emher suggested with from dashGAF import server as application
it is not necessary to include a routes_pathname_prefix, which was resolving the dashboard to https://ip.address/dashGAF/dashGAF`
the /etc/apache2/sites-available/dash.conf could be significantly shortened` (see below)
There was a failed request for _dash-component-suites/dash_renderer/dash_renderer.dev.js, and I had to add requests_pathname_prefix='/dashGAF/' option to my app = dash.Dash line (see link on github)

final setup:

/etc/apache2/sites-available/dash.conf

WSGIDaemonProcess dashGAF user=ubuntu group=ubuntu home=/home/ubuntu threads=5
WSGIScriptAlias /dashGAF /var/www/html/wsgi/dashGAF.wsgi

WSGIProcessGroup dashGAF
WSGIApplicationGroup %{GLOBAL}

/var/www/html/wsgi/dashGAF.wsgi

#!/usr/bin/python
import sys
sys.path.insert(0,"/home/ubuntu/dashboards/")
from dashGAF import server as application

dashboards/dashGAF.py As above, but include:

app = dash.Dash(__name__, external_stylesheets=external_stylesheets, requests_pathname_prefix='/dashGAF/')
server = app.server
