Version 1.2 of mod_wsgi is now available.
Version 1.2 of mod_wsgi is now available. The software and documentation are both available from: http://www.modwsgi.org The mod_wsgi package consists of an Apache web server module designed and implemented specifically for hosting Python based web applications that support the WSGI interface specification. Examples of major Python web frameworks and applications which are known to work in conjunction with mod_wsgi include CherryPy, Django, MoinMoin, Pylons, Trac and TurboGears. Version 1.2 of mod_wsgi is a bug fix only release, addressing issues with WSGI specification compliance, sub process invocation from Python in a mod_wsgi daemon process and most importantly of all, an issue whereby a second sub interpreter instance could be created for each WSGI application group when targeted by a specifically formed URL. This latter issue of a second sub interpreter being created only affects users of Apache 1.3 and 2.0. Because it can have the affect of doubling the memory in use by the application, it is highly recommended that users of these Apache versions upgrade to mod_wsgi 1.2, given that in a memory constrained environment the bug could be exploited as a form of remote denial of service attack. A description of all changes in this version can be found in the change notes at: http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/ChangesInVersion0102 If you have any questions about mod_wsgi or wish to provide feedback, use the Google group for mod_wsgi found at: http://groups.google.com/group/modwsgi Enjoy Graham Dumpleton
