Apache ‘The specified module could not be found. ‘ error

apache-2.2httpmod-wsgi

I got this message when I started the Apache service


The Apache service named reported the following error:

httpd.exe: Syntax error on line 128 of C:/data/apache/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load C:/data/apache/modules/mod_wsgi.so into server: The specified module could not be found. .


Not sure what went wrong, I do have
"C:/data/apache/modules/mod_wsgi.so"

Thanks for any help.

I already gave suggestions for this when you asked on the mod_wsgi mailing list. If that answer didn't help or you needed more information, then followup in the mod_wsgi mailing list to your original question rather than asking in a completely different forum again. See:

UPDATE 1

For the record, it was determined that issue was that they were using mod_wsgi compiled for Python 2.6 when all they had installed on their system was Python 2.5. The Apache error is misleading and the error about file not found was likely more because required Python DLL couldn't be found and not that mod_wsgi.so file wasn't present.
