I have a Flask app with a Mongo backend working perfectly in my local dev environment. I moved it to an AWS-hosted RHEL instance and got the Flask app working via httpd/mod_wsgi. However, connecting to a DB on MongoHQ continues to fail.
The code for the connection is this:
from flask import Flask
from flask.ext.pymongo import PyMongo
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config["MONGO_URI"] = 'mongodb://myusername:mypasswd@myhost.mongohq.com:myport/mydb'
mongo = PyMongo(app)
A sample query:
@app.route('/books')
def books()
all_books = mongo.db.listings.distinct("bookinfo")
return all_books
The error message from Apache (edited for readability):
mod_wsgi (pid=5116, process='myProcess', application=''): Loading WSGI script '/route/to/myapp.wsgi'.
mod_wsgi (pid=5116): Target WSGI script '/route/to/myapp.wsgi' cannot be loaded as Python module.
mod_wsgi (pid=5116): Exception occurred processing WSGI script '/route/to/myapp.wsgi'.
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/route/to/myapp.py", line 8, in <module>
mongo = PyMongo(app)

raise ConnectionFailure(str(e))

My thoughts/investigation:
Any help/hints/possibilities would be appreciated.
SELinux was the root cause for this. I'd disabled the firewall but never turned off SELinux by editing the /etc/sysconfig/selinux file. After doing so, the app still had issues, but this logging code helped tremendously:
import logging
file_handler = logging.FileHandler(filename='/var/www/myapp/flaskerror.log')
file_handler.setLevel(logging.WARNING)
app.logger.addHandler(file_handler)
