Python/Django - Starting apache with mod_wsgi

Question

Trying to get mod_wsgi started. Getting an fmod related reference error.

[root@host]# mod_wsgi-express start-server wsgi.py --port=80 \
>     --user www-data --group www-data
Server URL         : http://localhost/
Server Root        : /tmp/mod_wsgi-localhost:80:0

httpd (mod_wsgi-express):

Syntax error on line 151 of /tmp/mod_wsgi-localhost:80:0/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/mod_wsgi/server/mod_wsgi-py35.cpython-35m-i386-linux-gnu.so into server: /usr/local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/mod_wsgi/server/mod_wsgi-py35.cpython-35m-i386-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbol: fmod

Suggests that the maths library -lm is not present in the library flags definition of the Python installation. This has come up before a long time ago but can't remember the solution/outcome. You can try uninstalling using pip uninstall mod_wsgi and then reinstalling using LDFLAGS=-lm pip install -U mod_wsgi and see if that works. — Graham Dumpleton

I don't know if this will work for you but give it a shot since you are using python3

sudo apt-get remove libapache2-mod-python libapache2-mod-wsgi 
sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-wsgi-py3

I think Mr Graham Dumpleton is referring to the solution he posted almost a year ago on https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/modwsgi/L1iJeUpPTks
