Description Till Maas 2013-06-17 10:35:51 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #611182 +++

Currently mod_wsgi does not declare WSGISocketPrefix so mod_wsgi in daemon mode tries to create a socket in /etc/httpd/logs/ which will fail.

I propose to add these lines to /etc/httpd/conf.d/wsgi.conf:

<IfModule mod_wsgi.c>
   WSGISocketPrefix /var/run/mod_wsgi
</IfModule>

Therefore new users don't have to set it explicitely and mod_wsgi on EPEL will be a bit easier to use.

Noticed in mod_wsgi-3.2-3.el6

Thanks for the report.

It looks like the best fix for this is to have the internal (hard-coded) default correct, rather than configuring an over-ride for that internal default.
