Django mod_wsgi on Apache application works fine in Ubuntu 20.04 and previous versions with the configuration mentioned below, but when I do the same configuration in Ubuntu 22.04 it gets 403 Forbidden error. and Permission denied: mod_wsgi in the error log.
I tried changing permission on all files it's doesn't work,
Apache config:
<VirtualHost *:80>

CodePudding user response:
By default Apache2 run as www-data
user that does not have permission (read/execute) to home directories. So you should set the correct permissions also on the home directory:
sudo chmod 755 /home/ubuntu
Or you can put the project into e.g. /var/www
that is readable/executable by 'others' by default, so Apache2 can run the project from there.
