I am trying to set up graphite-web on a freshly installed ubuntu 18.04 system. I used the apt packet manager, so I got the 1.0.2 version of graphite-web. I finished the configuration als usual, however I got an "Internal Server Error" when trying to open graphite-web in the browser. The apache error log of graphite web says:

At first I thought that the dirctory that contains the wsgi script was not owned by the right user, but it turned out that this was not the case. (It is owned by the web-servers user)
Currently I am using python 2.7 but I was able to replicate the problem using python3.
I am running out of ideas. Can anyone help?
Thanks!
