Couldn't set up mod_wsgi for my Apache and Django

Question

Need guides to set up mod_wsgi on Windows for my XAMPP Apache and Django project. I'm using Python 3.7.3(win32), Django 2.2.3 and Apache 2.4.39(win64). Errors appear when after i set "MOD_WSGI_APACHE_ROOTDIR=C:\xampp\apache\bin" and pip install mod_wsgi. I'm not sure what i did wrong at this step?

Read about Visual Code 14.0. Downloaded it and i still got error.

I need to deploy my Django on Apache web server.

If you are using Apache 64 bit version, you need to compile your mod_wsgi with 64 bit version of python. — dotslash227

is it this python version : Windows x86 executable installer or Windows x86-64 executable installer? — Django Newbie

x86 is the 32 bit version. You need to get this version : python.org/ftp/python/3.7.4/python-3.7.4-amd64.exe It might ask you the version you want to install, so you will have to choose the 64 bit. — dotslash227

okay thanks for your help but do you know what other problems i have got out here? :( — Django Newbie

In windows apache configuration for Django project is slightly different than that of Ubuntu. We cannot find mod_wsgi.so module for windows to include it as LoadModule in apache httpd.conf. Alternatively we can do the following setup for successfully running Django project in apache server.

Install latest version of apache
download mod_wsgi source code from https://github.com/GrahamDumpleton/mod_wsgi
Activate python virtual environment
cd to mod_wsgi folder where it downloaded
Run the following command python setup.py install

mod_wsgi package is installed in python virtual environment
Now some configuration has to be included in httpd.conf file of apache in order to run web app. So, run the following command mod_wsgi-express module-config
output of the command is-

LoadFile "c:/path_to/python37.dll" LoadModule wsgi_module "d:/virtual_environment/lib/site-packages/mod_wsgi-4.7.1-py3.7-win-amd64.egg/mod_wsgi/server/mod_wsgi.cp37-win_amd64.pyd" WSGIPythonHome "d:/virtual_environment" Include the above in apache httpd.conf file.

Now to run web app of django in apache, some more configuration has to be done at apache httpd.conf file. In windows running daemon process is not possible. So alternatively the httpd.conf setup information can be found in official link of django https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/howto/deployment/wsgi/modwsgi/

The set up is done and web app will run successfully in apache!!
