As I mentioned in a previous post, I'm attempting to convert an application 
from mod_python to mod_wsgi.  One thing I need to replace is authenticated 
downloads via apache.  Basically GET requests with headers set that can be 
picked out by python code and used to check against a database or other 
means.  The checking code already exists, but it's just the apache->python 
plumbing that's needed.  It seems like WSGIAccessScript would be the 
directive to use for this, but I'm not getting any of the results I 
expect.  I have essentially the following in my apache config...

  Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
  Alias /my/download/path /my/local/download/dir
  <Directory /my/local/download/dir>
    WSGIAccessScript /my/script/dir/somescript.py
  </Directory>

  SetEnv CONFIG_FILE myconfigfile.conf
  WSGIDaemonProcess my-process processes=2 threads=15 display-name=%{GROUP} 
python-path='/my/script/dir/' processes=1 threads=5
  WSGIProcessGroup my-process-group
  WSGIScriptAliasMatch ^/(apiurl1|apiurl2$) /my/script/dir/somescript.py
  <Directory /my/script/dir>
    Require all granted
  </Directory>

The APIs served by the WSGIScriptAlias script directive seem to work just 
fine.  I stubbed out the allow_access function to just return false to test 
out that it was working (to deny all) but when I attempt to download 
http://myserver.com/my/download/path/myfile, I get the file just fine 
without an error.  I'm not even sure if the allow_access call is being made 
or not.  Am I missing something?
