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.
This was corrected by fixing httpd to export the correct run-time path. mod_wsgi now uses "/run/httpd/wsgi" as the default hard-coded prefix. mod_wsgi-3.4-6.fc18.x86_64
Sorry, wrong bug page! It would be better to fix this by "correcting" the definition of DEFAULT_REL_RUNTIMEDIR in mod_wsgi.c in EPEL, there shouldn't be a need to fix the default config. Arguably it is a RHEL httpd bug anyway, but it's unlikely we'd change the exported DEFAULT_REL_RUNTIMEDIR in an update.
