+++ 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-3.3-2.fc17
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '17'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
> If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. This issue still exists with the most recent version of Fedora and mod_wsgi, so reopening.
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. It works for me with mod_wsgi-3.4-6.fc18.x86_64. What version are you using, Jon?
# strings /usr/lib64/httpd/modules/mod_wsgi.so | grep /run /run/httpd/wsgi # rpm -qf /usr/lib64/httpd/modules/mod_wsgi.so mod_wsgi-3.4-8.fc19.x86_64 Looks fine in f19 too.
