Flask - WSGI - No module named 'flask'

Question

I\'ve been following Sentdex\' Flask tutorial. He\'s using a Venv to set up his Flask, but didn\'t set his Python up to work with a Venv. I\'ve tried installing Flask globally -

Answer 1

As is polite behaviour when finding the solution, I googled around a bit more, and somehow managed to find a solution from a YouTube commment by Nathan Nichols here:

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-run-django-with-mod_wsgi-and-apache-with-a-virtualenv-python-environment-on-a-debian-vps

1. Edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/FlaskApp.conf

2. Add the following two lines before the "WSGIScriptAlias" line:

   WSGIDaemonProcess FlaskApp python-path=/var/www/FlaskApp:/var/www/FlaskApp/FlaskApp/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages
   WSGIProcessGroup FlaskApp
   

3. Restart Apache with "service apache2 restart"

I of course replaced the Python version with python3.5, which is what I'm running.
