Getting client denied when accessing a wsgi graphite script
- by Dr BDO Adams
I'm trying to set up graphite on my Mac OS X 10.7 lion, i've set up apache to call the python graphite script via WSGI, but when i try to access it, i get a forbiden from apache and in the error log.
"client denied by server configuration: /opt/graphite/webapp/graphite.wsgi"
I've checked that the scripts location is allowed in httpd.conf, and the permissions of the file, but they seem correct. What do i have to do to get access. Below is the httpd.conf, which is nearly the graphite example.
<IfModule !wsgi_module.c>
LoadModule wsgi_module modules/mod_wsgi.so
</IfModule>
WSGISocketPrefix /usr/local/apache/run/wigs
<VirtualHost _default_:*>
ServerName graphite
DocumentRoot "/opt/graphite/webapp"
ErrorLog /opt/graphite/storage/log/webapp/error.log

WSGIProcessGroup graphite
WSGIApplicationGroup %{GLOBAL}
WSGIImportScript /opt/graphite/conf/graphite.wsgi process-group=graphite application-group=%{GLOBAL}
# XXX You will need to create this file! There is a graphite.wsgi.example
# file in this directory that you can safely use, just copy it to graphite.wgsi

Can you help?
