I have a server with FreeBSD 10.1 installed. I want to deploy a Django site on it using uwsgi+nginx+python3 and got some problems.

The site was written for python3, I installed python3.4 then python3 and python from ports, configured nginx and wrote uwsgi ini-file and sock-file. I then tried to start the project. It works perfecttly in virtualenv.

Then I installed uwsgi globally using pip3. But when I try to start the project globally I get the error

no module named site

which means that uwsgi uses python2 instead of 3. What I tried to resolve this problem:

  • set DEFAULT_VERSIONS=python=3.4 in make.conf;
  • set $PYTHONHOME and $PYTHONPATH to /usr/local/bin/python3;
  • change link /usr/local/bin/python from python2 to python3;

It didn't help. How to force uwsgi to use python3 instead of python2?

  • It looks like uwsgi sets PythonPath when it runs, presumably for its own bundled version of Python. I don't use uwsgi so I don't know for sure, but there should be either a) a setting to change that or b) manually replace their Python 2 executable with a symlink to your Python 3 executable.

    When setting DEFAULT_VERSIONS=python=3.4 in make.conf what exactly did you do? Did you rebuild the port?

  • This ^^ ... it should help set a compile-time option; something akin to 'CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include/python3.4" make PYTHON=python3.4 asyncio' ... if the port hasn't been rebuilt, that's the first thing to try. make.conf should take over and set the flags for you.

  • @Raphael You're right, I forgot to rebuilt the port after changing make.conf. Foolishly, but I'm new in UNIX. Add you comment to answers and I'll commit it.

Reset to default

When setting

DEFAULT_VERSIONS=python=3.5 python2=2.7 python3=3.5

in /etc/make.conf you have to rebuild the ports that use the default version of Python.

You can use virtualenv to handle different Python versions on one server, and use completely separate Python installations for whatever you need.

See http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/dev/virtualenvs/
