Hi David, I also first tried installing those as the root user.  Not sure
if that's exactly what you mean by root privileges, or if you just mean
with sudo, but when I did so as the root user (su root), the installation
worked but I also had to run later commands from the root user account, and
felt that that was not a great precedence to set.  It seemed more prudent
to do everything as the ubuntu user, hence the addition of the sudo
commands to the ubuntu_trusty_setup.sh script.

As for setting up with Apache, here are the steps that I recorded when I
made a successful test of that process:

1. get apache2 and the mod
 -- $: sudo apt-get install apache2
 -- $: sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-wsgi

2. edit main apache2 config file
 -- $: sudo nano /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

add the top arches app directory ("crip" is the name of my app):

<Directory /home/ubuntu/Projects/crip/>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride None
        Require all granted
</Directory>

3. edit the sites-enabled conf file:
 -- $: sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default

under <VirtualHost *:80> add:

#create daemon process: make path to app and to virtualenv python
WSGIDaemonProcess arches
python-path=/home/ubuntu/Projects/crip:/home/ubuntu/Projects/ENV/lib/python2.7/site-packages

#make group for app
WSGIProcessGroup arches

#path to app wsgi.py file
WSGIScriptAlias / /home/ubuntu/Projects/crip/wsgi.py

4. restart apache
 -- $: sudo service apache2 restart

Hope that works for you!

I'm also hoping to set up elasticsearch as a daemon process so that it will
run without having a terminal open, but have not attempted that yet.  This
is where I'm going to start with that once I'm able to get to it:
