Question

EDIT: I’m slightly further along now, but the new issue is around rendering templates. When I go to any URL I get the following error message in the log:

server:666/ gives this error

[error] [client 192.168.100.109] client denied by server configuration: C:/I4/importicusindex.html

and server:666/export gives this error

error] [client 192.168.100.109] client denied by server configuration: C:/I4/importicusexport

It must be reading the .py file as it knows to look for index.html when accessing “/” or is that just default behaviour?

I’m struggling to get my application running in APACHE on Windows using MOD_WSGI. I’ve browsed a few answers on here already and tried following the documentation but to no avail.

The app itself runs fine using flask’s inbuilt server.

c:\i4\importicus\wsgi\importicus.WSGI

import sys
sys.path.append('c:/i4/importicus/')
activate_this = 'c:/i4/importicus/importicus.py'
execfile(activate_this, dict(__file__=activate_this))
import importicus as importicus

vhosts file

<VirtualHost *:666>
    ServerAdmin [e-mail]
    DocumentRoot "c:/i4/importicus"

    ErrorLog c:/i4/importicus/logs/engine-error_log
    CustomLog c:/i4/importicus/logs/engine-access_log common



    Alias /media c:/i4/importicus/static
    <Directory c:/i4/importicus>

        Order deny,allow
        Allow from all
    </Directory>



    WSGIScriptAlias /wsgi z:\i4\importicus\wsgi\importicus.wsgi

    <Directory c:/i4/importicus/wsgi>

        Order deny,allow
        Allow from all
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

c:\i4\importicus\importicus.py

from flask import Flask, render_template,jsonify, request
from werkzeug import secure_filename
import importicus_functions
import ast, os, sys
importicus_main = Flask(__name__)

UPLOAD_FOLDER = 'uploads'
importicus_main.config['UPLOAD_FOLDER'] = UPLOAD_FOLDER

#print importicus_main.config.keys()#['ROOT_PATH']='C:/IMATS-Project/legacy import scripts/importicus/'
importicus_main.debug=True


@importicus_main.route('/')
def importicus():

    return render_template('splash.html')

The only error I get is:

Forbidden

You don’t have permission to access / on this server.

so apache is obviously finding the WSGI file, but my suspicion is that I’m not running the flask application correctly.

Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

WSGIScriptAlias /wsgi z:\i4\importicus\wsgi\importicus.wsgi is the problem, you will note that all other paths are on c:, not z:

Infuriating!
