When using mod_wsgi it will not look in the directory where the WSGI script file is, by default, for other modules to import. When you run from command line, python will look in current working directory.
You there need to tell mod_wsgi how to find your application and modules. I can't easily check right now, but thought Flask deployment guide for mod_wsgi explained that. Ways to do it are to update sys.path in WSGI script file. If using embedded mode use WSGIPythonPath directive and if using daemon mode use python-path option to WSGIDaemonProcess directive. Knowing what to look for, check back the Flask docs for mod_wsgi deployment, I can't get to them right now. Graham > On 27 Apr 2016, at 10:41, Jaqen Nki <[email protected]> wrote: > > Good question.
