The situation with some Linux distributions is absolutely pathetic. The version of mod_wsgi they supply in their own system packages is ancient and there is zero you can do about it besides uninstall their package for mod_wsgi and install mod_wsgi from source code yourself. If you are just playing around at this point, I would suggest you first use mod_wsgi-express. This can be installed using Python ‘pip’ into a Python virtual environment very easily. You can then run mod_wsgi-express on the command line without having to know anything about how to configure Apache. For more details see: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mod_wsgi <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mod_wsgi> Other instructions for how to build mod_wsgi from source code can be found at: http://modwsgi.readthedocs.org/en/develop/ <http://modwsgi.readthedocs.org/en/develop/> The instructions are showing their age, so if have issues with following them, post a followup. Best though to see if you can use mod_wsgi-express initially if just want something to develop and learn with.
