Hi there,

It looks like that the wsgi module is not enabled.

You could do that by using the following commands:

  • Install the module if it is missing:
sudo apt install libapache2-mod-wsgi python-dev
  • Enable the module
sudo a2enmod wsgi

Finally run a config test:

sudo apachectl -t

And if you get Syntax OK message, restart Apache.

Regards, Bobby

I have only this file

apache2-graphite.conf

and here is the content of this file

<VirtualHost *:80>

        WSGIDaemonProcess _graphite processes=5 threads=5 display-name='%{GROUP}' inactivity-timeout=1$
        WSGIProcessGroup _graphite
        WSGIImportScript /usr/share/graphite-web/graphite.wsgi process-group=_graphite application-gro$
        WSGIScriptAlias / /usr/share/graphite-web/graphite.wsgi

        Alias /static/ /usr/share/graphite-web/static/
        <Location "/static/">
                SetHandler None
        </Location>

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/graphite-web_error.log

        # Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
        # alert, emerg.
