Setup for Django development system
OS Debian Linux 8 (jessie) using systemd, not init.d
Python 3.4.2
Django 1.8.5
Apache2 2.4.10 Debian (mmm-worker)
mod_wsgi 4.3.0
Postgresql 9.4.5
Two virtual environments: archive (actual project) and mysite (django
tutorial). Setup done with python3 -m venv <project name>. There seems
to be some variation between this setup and the one using virtualenv.
Confusing.
pip3 install mod_wsgi in each environment
Run mod_wsgi-express with install-module and setup-server for each.
In /etc/apache2/envvars the following environmental variables are set.
export APACHE_RUN_USER=www-data
export APACHE_RUN_GROUP=www-data
In /etc/apache2/apache2.conf the following environmental variables are
used to set user and group.
User ${APACHE_RUN_USER}
Group ${APACHE_RUN_GROUP}
But starting from within the project with mod_wsgi-express start-server
gives:
WARNING: When running as the 'root' user, it is required that the
options '--user' and '--group' be specified to mod_wsgi-express.
Starting with apachectl start or python manage.py runserver give no
errors. Both servers work.
Questions:
What user is apache running as if started with apachectl?
What user is apache running as if started with python manage.py
runserver?
How do I assure that Apache is running as www-data?
Do I need to start Apache with mod_wsgi-express --user www-data --group
www-data or is python manage.py runserver good enough?
Answers to these questions would be very very helpful
