Question

I’ve got a Python script that is executing functions asynchronously by using PEST wsgi library. However, when I try to import another module it simply results in a 500 error.

The way I try to reference it is:

from foo import * 
from foo import Foo

where foo is a file .py in which I have the object that I want to reference to.

Tried to monitor the calls through Chrome’s Inspect Element Control but couldn’t find a thing.

Also tried to debug using Apache’s error log, but nothing there.
Any hints appreciated.

Update:
I’ve tried the following which resulted in the same 500 error:

–make use of

import site 

and

site.addsitedir("path/to/my/py/files/folder")

–modify the Apache2 httpd.conf file by inserting the following:

WSGIPythonPath /path/to/my/py/files/folder

–modify the application conf file in /etc/apache2/sites-available/myapp.conf, by inserting the above WSGIPythonPath

Answer 1

Adding

WSGIPythonPath /path/to/my/py/files/folder

before any other alias or directory in the application conf file really makes the difference.
Problem solved!
