This is interesting. I mean clearly I am missing something fundamental, due to the lack of understanding the basics. Because, just for the heck of it, I executed wsgi.py in the environment where I have InvenTree running just fine with gunicorn. And I got the exact same error, as in the apache2 error log. Where is that InvenTree module? I only have an inventree (all lowercase) module in my virtual environmenmt. Perhaps there is a parameter somewhere else, telling python to be case insensitive? Apologies if I am talking complete rubbish. |

You cannot call wsgi.py directly from python like that, it's a config file for your Apache server |

I couldn't figure out (yet) how to implement the auth_forward in apache2, but I noticed another problem I have to solve. Namely, the API stopped working. I suppose it is yet another apache2 configuration I have to figure out. |

If I run inventree with gunicorn, the API works, if I run it through apache2, I always get HTTP 401, and "Authentication credentials were not provided." as response. Please, see below the debug from the server error log. |

After hours and hours of reverse engineering the code, I came to the conclusion, that the "forward_auth" in the Caddyfile has got nothing to do with the API. And I tend to think my apache configuration should be good too, since I can see successful API calls during normal browser "operation". Except how authentication is handled, apparently. Why do I get 401 unauthorized? I tried comparing successful calls to the API through the gunicorn server (with tcpdump), but there saw no difference in any header. I need help, please. |

I found the missing piece! :-) I had to add Now, the api works, too. Here's the site configuration again, in full. |

@galmiklos glad to hear that you got it working :) Sorry I don't have any experience with Apache |

With reference to this issue, I was trying to find those links under the Bare Metal documentation, but I couldn't.
Needless to say, I am having difficulties setting it up, and I know this forum is not about wsgi and apache2, but if someone can spare some time to look at it, I would greatly appreciate it.
This is my apache2 site configuration.
And this is the error I get in apache's error log.
I thought I had the right python virtual environment configured (WSGIPythonHome), and the application is in the path (WSGIPythonPath), still, the InvenTree module is not found.
