I have a Django application using django-mssql to communicate w/ SQL Server.
This works just fine in the dev server (runserver) but under Apache/mod-wsgi, I get a error related to it trying to find a .dll which does exist:
Exception Type: ImportError
Exception Value: No system module 'pywintypes' (pywintypes27.dll)
Exception Location: C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\win32\lib\pywintypes.py in __import_pywin32_system_module__, line 98
Python Executable: C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\bin\httpd.exe
I used ActivePython2.7.2, mod_wsgi, pywin32 Build 216 and Django1.3.1, all of 32 bits
pywintypes27.dll exists in C:\Windows\SysWOW64 instead of C:\Windows\System32 as expected in my 64 bit windows 7
Thanks in advance
This is the same question as django-mssql not working in Apache w/ mod-wsgi, but works fine in dev server but that answer didn't help me cause I have installed 32 bits pywin32, I am new to stackoverflow and hope it is right to ask as a new question rather than hijack people's thread.
Move files:
- pythoncom27.dll
- pythoncomloader27.dll
- pywintypes27.dll
from "C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\pywin32_system32"
to
"C:\Python27"
Hope it helps.
Install pywin32-218.win32-py2.7.exe in machines of 32 or 64 bits.
For those who installed pywin32 via pip : check that you have done it outside a virtualenv.
If you've done it inside virtualenv, we can get this kind of error.
Prefer binarie installation : See Mark Amery response here
