Hello,

We're considering migrating from mod_wsgi to FastCGI (Apache) because we'll need to use versions of Python compiled by ourselves.

In addition to the research I've done and the pre-deployment tests we'll carry out, I'd love to know if any of you has done the same migration. If so, how was this experience? I suspect there's nothing to worry about (that's what WSGI is for), but just in case...

Thanks,

 - Gustavo.

Note that you can simply recompile mod_wsgi to use your custom Python.

We may need to use different versions of Python. :/

We've migrated a couple applications from mod_wsgi to mod_fcgid
(http://httpd.apache.org/mod_fcgid/) without any problems, and it's
now our default deployment strategy.

Regards,

Nathan
