Trouble configuring trac to work with Apache2 [closed]

Question

I've been trying to set up trac to be deployed with apache for a little while now and I'm running into a wall.

I can get it to work via tracd but I'm probably going to have multiple projects and I might want to use TSL for connections to trac.

This is the response I'm receiving from my server

Apache/2.2.14 (Ubuntu) Server at ***.***.***.*** Port 80

This is my apache v-host file: (Comments removed)

<VirtualHost *:80>

And this is my server's error log:

Does anyone know what might be going on and what I should do to fix it? Thanks!

Answer 1

Is this on Windows? As noted in this question, running Python with FastCGI on Windows is bound to fail.

I recommend switching to mod_wsgi which is the recommended approach anyway.
