[Python-modules-team] Bug#598143: Downgrade to libapache2-mod-wsgi from lenny helped

[Pieter Ennes]

We're seeing a similar thing, but using libapache2-mod-wsgi with plain
Python scripts without Django.

Forward-porting version 2.5 from Lenny made it work here as well. The
info below is from the non-working squeeze version.

This is from the local host, client side:
$ curl --trace - http://localhost/live/wsgi-bin/uagents.py

Looking on the server side, Apache error log, using LogLevel=debug, the
only messages are these:

[Wed Mar 02 14:33:39 2011] [info] mod_wsgi (pid=32275): Create
interpreter 'rs.watchmouse.net|/live/wsgi-bin/browser.py'.
[Wed Mar 02 14:33:39 2011] [info] mod_wsgi (pid=32275): Adding
'/home/wmc/sites/cp/live/wsgi' to path.

The virtual host has a WSGI directive like this:

WSGIDaemonProcess wsgi-live processes=6 threads=1 maximum-requests=1
stack-size=4096000 home=/somepath/ python-path=/somepath/
WSGIScriptAlias /live/wsgi-bin/ /somepath/
