Hi,
I'm trying to understand the httpd.conf file created for a Django project when I use runmodwsgi. My goal was to follow that file and use it to write my own smaller config file and store it in /etc/httpd/conf.d so it would load with the system Apache on startup. 

Following along with several tutorials, I expected to find a WSGIScriptAlias tag somewhere in the file, but it's not there. Instead, there are WSGIHandlerScript and WSGIImportScript tags, which load a handler.wsgi file that does some extra processing. I tried putting those tags in a VirtualHost setup in my config file, along with the usual WSGIDaemonProcess and WSGIProcessGroup tags, with the appropriate python path, python home, etc. I made sure that apache could read the handler file (Require all granted). When I start the Apache server it just serves some default page (it has the title "Index of /").

So my question is, how does the config file use the handler.wsgi script and not need WSGIScriptAlias? What other pieces need to be in place to make this setup work?

Thanks,
Paul

Perhaps better to watch:


it distills some of the keys things need to know.
