I have developed a Django 1.8 application using Python 3.3. I am trying to deploy the application on a university dedicated server with Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.2 (Maipo). (Note: RHEL does not let me install newer versions of Django and Python)
I had difficulty with installing mod_wsgi using the RHEL Apache and I ended up installing:
pip install -U mod_wsgi-httpd
pip install mod_wsgi
Everything works perfectly when I use the following setup:
python manage.py runmodwsgi --setup-only --port=80 --user=iman --group=root --server-root=/etc/mod_wsgi-express-80
However, when I want to setup HTTPS, using the following setup does not return any error message, but the website does not show up neither with http:// nor with https:// prefixes.
python manage.py runmodwsgi --setup-only --port=80 --user=iman --group=root --server-root=/etc/mod_wsgi-express-80 --https-only --https-port=443 --ssl-certificate-file=/etc/sslcert/iman.crt --ssl-certificate-key-file=/etc/sslcert/private/iman.key --ssl-ca-certificate-file=/etc/sslcert/certs/ca-bundle.crt --server-name=iman123.university.edu
Here are helpful resources that I found about mod_wsgi:
Running HTTPS and client authentication with mod_wsgi-express
pip install mod_wsgi-express left out mod_ssl.so
Thank you so much for your time and concern and apologies in advance if I am doing something wrong.
