Starting uWsgi with launch daemon help.

[Karl McHugh]

While logged in and using the terminal I can start uwasgi with a config file with no issue.

However, when it's started as a launch daemon, I can only get the default uwsgi to start. There is a line in the config file that trips it up:

module = wsgihandler:application 

In the system.log i get the error:

[strict mode] unknown config directive: module

I don't have much experience with launch daemon so any help and guidance would be greatly appreciated!
