Mod_wsgi Cannot Load my Python Server module on Amazon Ec2

Good day everyone, I am trying to deploy a test Flask project onto an Httpd (Apache) server running an Amazon Linux 2(centos rhel fedora) on Amazon Ec2. From My Apache Log I keep getting"

Target WSGI script '/home/ssm-user/Test_Wan/FlaskApp/lado.wsgi' cannot be loaded as Python module." and ImportError: No module named server

This is the error message I get on my Httpd server homepage

enter image description here

Here is the tree of my FlaskApp Directory

Flask Appp Tree View

This is the files in my flask app and the permisions of file and folders in it

Flask App file permissions

This is my lado.wsgi script

import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '/home/ssm- 
user/Test_Wan/FlaskApp/server.py')

from server import app as application

if __name__ == "__main__":
    application.run()

This is my server.py file

from flask import Flask,render_template

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def index():
    return render_template(f"index.html")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run(debug=True)

This is the files in my templates folder located in my FlaskAPP directory and there permissions

Solution

  • Try removing server.py from sys.path and retry. sys.path should be a directory.
