Cannot run mod_wsgi on Apache 2.4 x64 Windows

[Shrike]

I have a Apache 2.2 installation with a site on Django. I load mod_wsgi.so module in my Apache config. Now I'm trying to migrate onto Apache 2.4 and have difficulties with mod_wsgi.

First of all: my server is on Windows 2008R2 (x64).

I setup Apache 2.4 x64 (httpd-2.4.10-win64-VC11.zip from Apache Lounge).

Then I downloaded mod_wsgi binary from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#mod_wsgi - I took mod_wsgi‑3.5.ap24.win‑amd64‑py2.6.zip as my Apache is x64 and my Python is 2.6.

In conf/httpd.conf I have

LoadModule mod_wsgi modules/mod_wsgi.so
 

I'm getting error when run httpd.exe:

httpd.exe: Syntax error on line 179 of C:/Prog/Apache24/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load modules/mod_wsgi.so into server : The specified module could not be found.

If I replace mod_wsgi.so with x86 version then I'll get other error about incorrect bitness, so the module seems to try be loaded. I have all vsredist (2008/9,20010/10,2012/11) installed.

What's wrong?

Did you unzip the .zip file?

What was the name of the .so file that was in it?

What is the full path of the directory you put the .so file in?

Sure :)
I put mod_wsgi.so file into the modules folder: C:\Prog\Apache24\modules\mod_wsgi.so

What was the name of the .so file that was in it?

mod_wsgi.so
 

What is the full path of the directory you put the .so file in?

I put mod_wsgi.so into C:\Prog\Apache24\modules\
And I load mod_wsgi in the same way as others:

LoadModule ssl_module modules/mod_ssl.so
LoadModule mod_wsgi modules/mod_wsgi.so

Was the Python 2.6 installation installed for all users or just the user that installed it?

If not installed for all users it will not be able to be found by the user that Apache runs as.

How to check it?
 

If not installed for all users it will not be able to be found by the user that Apache runs as.

Anyway, I run Apache httpd.exe from command line under a user and that user does have access to Python:

C:\Prog\Apache24\bin>httpd.exe            
httpd.exe: Syntax error on line 179 of C:/Prog/Apache24/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load modules/mod_wsgi.so into server

: The specified module could not be found.

                                                                       
C:\Prog\Apache24\conf>python --version
Python 2.6.5

Probably the problem is in Python - it's x86.

So I trying to switch to x86 version of all:
- Apache httpd-2.4.10-win32-VC11.zip
- mod_wsgi-3.5.ap24.win32-py2.6.zip
- the same Python 2.6

Now running httpd.exe says:
httpd.exe: Syntax error on line 179 of C:/Prog/Apache24/conf/httpd.conf: Can't locate API module structure `mod_wsgi
' in file C:/Prog/Apache24/modules/mod_wsgi.so: No error

Oh, found answer:  http://serverfault.com/questions/435926/cant-locate-api-module-structure-mod-wsgi

LoadModule mod_wsgi modules/mod_wsgi.so

is wrong. It should have been:

LoadModule wsgi_module modules/mod_wsgi.so
