Macos – How to get mod_wsgi working on Mac

apachemacosmercurialversion control

I have been trying to install the latest version of mod_wsgi (3.3) since hours on my Mac. I'm on Snow Leopard and I have the versions of Apache (Apache/2.2.15) and Python 2.6.1 (r261:67515) that come with the system.

I downloaded mod_wsgi-3.3.tar.gz from http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/downloads/detail?name=mod_wsgi-3.3.tar.gz
Extracted the file and executed the following through terminal:

./configure make sudo make install
I added LoadModule wsgi_module modules/mod_wsgi.so to my httpd.conf.
Restarted Apache by disabling and enabling Web Sharing from the control panel.
localhost stops working until I remove the line I added httpd.conf 🙁

Please help. Thanks in advance.

I use the homebrew installed version of mod_wsgi. That gives me a universal version of mod_wsgi that works with the vanilla apache.

➔  file `brew list mod_wsgi`
/usr/local/Cellar/mod_wsgi/3.2/libexec/mod_wsgi.so: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
/usr/local/Cellar/mod_wsgi/3.2/libexec/mod_wsgi.so (for architecture x86_64):   Mach-O 64-bit bundle x86_64
/usr/local/Cellar/mod_wsgi/3.2/libexec/mod_wsgi.so (for architecture i386): Mach-O bundle i386

Git – How to discard unstaged changes in Git

For all unstaged files in current working directory use:

git checkout -- .

For a specific file use:

git checkout -- path/to/file/to/revert

-- here to remove ambiguity (this is known as argument disambiguation).

For Git 2.23 onwards, one may want to use the more specific

git restore .

resp.

git restore path/to/file/to/revert

that together with git switch replaces the overloaded git checkout (see here), and thus removes the argument disambiguation.

Git – I ran into a merge conflict. How to abort the merge

Since your pull was unsuccessful then HEAD (not HEAD^) is the last "valid" commit on your branch:

git reset --hard HEAD

The other piece you want is to let their changes over-ride your changes.

Older versions of git allowed you to use the "theirs" merge strategy:

git pull --strategy=theirs remote_branch

But this has since been removed, as explained in this message by Junio Hamano (the Git maintainer). As noted in the link, instead you would do this:

git fetch origin
git reset --hard origin
