Are you all sorted out? Looks like its just a misconfigured WSGIPythonPath.. should be easy to fix.

It looks like you don't have '/usr/src/wikipbx' on your python path and you have '/usr/src/wikipbx/wikipbx/wikipbxweb' that I don't think is needed, although the latter shouldn't be relevant here. So what's your WSGIPythonPath in apache mod_wsgi config?

Traun is talking about WSGIPythonPath directive in apache config. It's describe in apache configuration docs.

Also note that python 2.4 is not an officially supported version, so you should upgrade to python 2.5 or higher if you get messages with SyntaxError exceptions later.

Here is the result from error_log after adding the print line:

[error] sys.path: ['/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.4-linux-i686.egg', '/usr/lib/python2.4', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/wsgiproxy', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/wsgiref', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/wsgiref-0.1.2-py2.4.egg-info', '/usr/src/wikipbx/wikipbx', '/usr/src/wikipbx/wikipbx/wikipbxweb', '/usr/lib/python24.zip', '/usr/lib/python2.4/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib/python2.4/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Numeric', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/PIL', '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/gtk-2.0']

Any clues ?

Thanks very much for this.

Excuse my ignorance of both python and wsgi, but I couldn't locate WSGIPythonPath anywhere in the scripts installed.

My install has the following hierarchy:

/usr/src/wikipbx: this is where the wikipbx tree is installed
/usr/lib/python2.4: this is where python 2.4 is installed
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-pakages

What is your recommendation for setting this path and in which file should that definition go ?

Thanks again.

Thanks for this.

Already copied and customised.

If you did indeed copy settings_template.py -> settings.py, double check your WSGIPythonPath variable for typo's. That's happened to me a few times .. got that same error because it couldn't find the settings.py module.

Essentially what's happening is that the python interpreter running in apache simply cannot find a python module called "settings", which it expects to find in a package called "wikipbx".

If you can't get it working it shouldn't be too hard to debug, just print out the sys.path from the wikipbx.wsgi file using:

 print >> sys.stderr, "sys.path: %s" % sys.path

.. something like that at least, and you would see output in the /var/log/apache2/error.log file

As described in installation manual, you should copy wikipbx/settings_template.py flie to wikipbx/settings.py and customize it as necessary.

Gents,

Perhaps a FAQ, but I couldn't find it anywhere on the FAQ list.

I've installed and configured all the pre-requisites for 0.8 on my CentOS 5.4 install, and all's well. That is until I open a page to wikipbx.mydomein.com.

All I get is an Error 500 page, and an error in the web server logs as follows:

There is a reference to wikipbx.settings in a number of files under the install directory, but I could not locate such a module anywhere.

Can anyone shed some light on this ?

Thanks in advance.
