Hi, Ok thanks for that info.
I didn't get into detail earlier, but among the attempts that I tried to build mod-wsgi earlier, I actually DID get the "mod_wsgi-express start-server" to work, but then when I tried to add the LoadModule to my Apache 2.4.25, the Apache still failed again, for the same error (the one with "mech" in the error message). The configuration is now gone (I restored a snapshot). I have to think about this some more :(...
