I want to install Apache server module mod_wsgi on (Server version: Apache/2.4.56) Amazon Linux 2023 a Lightsail Instance. I have python3.9 and I tried with rpm it's showing error - Problem: conflicting requests nothing provides libpython2.7.so.1.0()(64bit) needed by mod_wsgi-3.4-12.amzn2.0.2.x86_64

Yum install command is unable to find package. pip install is also not working.

Tried with Source Code (mod_wsgi) but it showing error for - apxs2, perhaps it will require to install httpd-devel and I am supposed that it may affect my already installed httpd on which sites are published.

Upgrades are available - releasever=2023.2.20231018 & releasever=2023.2.20231026 Can upgrades fix it?

So please help me, how to install it?

Try the following:

  1. RPM Error - Python 2.7 Dependency: The RPM is for an older version of mod_wsgi that requires Python 2.7. Find an RPM compatible with Python 3.9, or compile mod_wsgi from source using Python 3.9.

  2. Yum Can't Find Package: mod_wsgi may not be in the default repositories. Enable EPEL and try again:

    sudo amazon-linux-extras install epel
sudo yum install mod_wsgi

  3. Pip Install Not Working: mod_wsgi is an Apache module, not a Python package, so it can't be installed with pip.

  4. Source Code Compilation Errors: Install httpd-devel to get the apxs tool without affecting the current httpd:

    sudo yum install httpd-devel

  5. System Upgrades: While updating may not directly fix mod_wsgi issues, it's a good practice:

    sudo yum update

After the update, try installing mod_wsgi again via yum.

  • Thanks for help! It is Amazon 2023 AMI so as I know it does not support EPEL. I will try to find RPM compatible with Python 3.9.
