Apache/XAMPP with Python

[matjung]

I know Xampp is mainly about PHP, but it also works with Python.
I found plenty of instructions on the web, that actually don't work.
For the following environment it works for me:

Code: Select all

SERVER_SIGNATURE    <address>Apache/2.4.23 (Win32) OpenSSL/1.0.2h mod_wsgi/4.4.23 Python/3.6.0 PHP/7.0.13 Server at localhost Port 80</address>
SERVER_SOFTWARE    Apache/2.4.23 (Win32) OpenSSL/1.0.2h mod_wsgi/4.4.23 Python/3.6.0 PHP/7.0.13


Code: Select all

httpd-xampp.conf
WSGIScriptAliasMatch /python/ "G:/htdocs/python/"
<Directory "G:/htdocs/python">
       Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
      DirectoryIndex index.py
        AllowOverride all
        Order Deny,Allow
        Allow from all
        Require all granted
</Directory>


Code: Select all

httpd.conf
LoadModule wsgi_module modules/mod_wsgi.so


Code: Select all

def application(environ, start_response):
    status = '200 OK'
    output = b'Greetings from Python to Apache'
    response_headers = [('Content-type', 'text/plain'), ('Content-Length', str(len(output)))]
    start_response(status, response_headers)
    return [output]


http://localhost/python/test1.py -> G:/htdocs/python/test1.py
http://localhost/python/test2.py -> G:/htdocs/python/test2.py
http://localhost/python -> G:/htdocs/python/index.py

First install xampp, then Python.
For getting mod_wsgi.so, follow these instructions or ask Xampp for a new Xampp release
