mod_wsgi EasyApache module

[challgren]

Are you tired of having to manually recompile modules when apache is rebuilt. While I made a script to allow you to install mod_wsgi via EasyApache. To install you have to follow the commands on EasyApache Custom Modules

The file can be downloaded at Issue 214 - modwsgi - Add a download so users running cPanel software can install wsgi without having to break their apache conf - Project Hosting on Google Code

if you do not have python26 installed this will not work. If your a CentOS user you can add http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL to your yum repos and run "yum install python26-devel"

I've been meaning to try this for a while and finally had a new server to test on. Unfortunately, I did not see any mention of mod_wsgi in the easy_apache setup screens (not sure whether I was supposed to). easy_apache ran to completion, but there was no mod_wsgi.so in my modules directory, and grepping the easy_apache log for mod_wsgi turned up nothing. It seems not to have seen the module at all.

I've got python2.7 installed in /usr/local/bin - not sure whether that could be related. Since we're not supposed to upgrade the native cPanel version of python, installing a secondary version instead like I've done here, it's not clear how to tell this module where to find the version of python we want it to compile against.

Any more hints or documentation you can offer? Would really like to get this going. Thanks.

Finally figured it out, and documented the process for others who might need it.

Hope someone finds it useful!
