I call app.run(debug=True)
in my flask file.
and I have it deployed with uWSGI and nginx (I followed these instructions)
uwsgi -s /tmp/uwsgi.sock -w flask_file_name:app -H /path/to/virtual/env --chmod-socket 666
But when I get an error, I don't get any debug information in the browser or in the uWSGI log.
Any ideas?
flask_file_name.py:
from flask import Flask, make_response, Response, jsonify
import json
app = Flask(__name__)
app.debug = True
@app.route("/")
def hello():
return "Hello World!"
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run()
According to the Flask mailing list you cannot use Flask's debug option with uWSGI
, because it's not to be used in a forking environment.
You see 502 because flask/werkzeug do not send any data to the webserver,
so nginx will returns a 502.
You can emulate the debugger using --catch-exceptions option in uWSGI
(but please do not do it in production)
So, the reason you're seeing 502s will be because of that. The fix would be to add --catch-exceptions
to uWSGI
on execution.
This question is old, but I'll post this for future reference...
If you want to get the werkzeug error page to work with uwsgi, try using werkzeug's DebuggedApplication
middleware:
from werkzeug.debug import DebuggedApplication
app.wsgi_app = DebuggedApplication(app.wsgi_app, True)
That should do the trick but DO NOT FORGET to do this ONLY in development environments.
The problem is uwsgi
does not call app.run()
. It calls app()
. So instead you can do this:
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
app.debug = True
For me it only worked after I combined the two answers above like this:
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
from werkzeug.debug import DebuggedApplication
app.wsgi_app = DebuggedApplication(app.wsgi_app, True)
app.debug = True
