apache2/httpd configuration for the app

Based on the flask mod_wsgi documentation:

Install required httpd/apache and wsgi module

In RHEL:

sudo dnf install mod_wsgi httpd

In Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-wsgi-py3
sudo a2enconf mod-wsgi
sudo a2enmod rewrite

Configuration

Add the configuration, adapting it to your system, from these files:

• apache.config - Replace the values in brackets and add to your apache/httpd config
  • In RHEL:
    • Config in: /etc/httpd/conf.d/[site].conf
    • Restart httpd: sudo systemctl restart httpd
  • In Ubuntu:
    • Config in: /etc/apache2/sites-available/[site].conf
    • Enable site: sudo a2ensite [site]
    • Restart apache2: sudo service apache2 restart
• app.wsgi - the WSGI script to place in the path specified in the config file that runs the Flask app

Check the web server documentation for details.

Note: The files use /var/www/app as the root of the app.
