Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated mod_wsgi packages that fix one bug and add one enhancement are now
available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

The mod_wsgi packages provide a Apache httpd module, which implements a WSGI
compliant interface for hosting Python based web applications.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Prior to this update, a misleading warning message from the mod_wsgi utilities
  was logged during startup of the Apache httpd daemon. This update removes this
  message from the mod_wsgi module. (BZ#670577)
  

This update also adds the following enhancement:

• With this update, access to the SSL connection state is now available in WSGI
  scripts using the methods "mod_ssl.is_https" and "mod_ssl.var_lookup".
  (BZ#719409)
  

All users of mod_wsgi are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
fix this bug and add this enhancement.
