I want to use uWSGI with CGI plugin to process all requests to .py files passed from NGINX.
NGINX server config:
location ~ \.py$ {
include uwsgi_params;
uwsgi_modifier1 9;
uwsgi_pass unix:/var/www/html/cgi-bin/wsgi.sock;
}
uWSGI config:
[uwsgi]
plugin-dir = /usr/lib/uwsgi/plugins
plugins = cgi
cgi = /var/www/html/cgi-bin
cgi-allowed-ext = .py
cgi-helper = .py=python
master = true
processes = 5
socket = wsgi.sock
chmod-socket = 664
vacuum = true
die-on-term = true
uWSGI starting output:
$ sudo -u www-data uwsgi --ini uwsgi.ini
[uWSGI] getting INI configuration from uwsgi.ini

There are 2 files in /var/www/html/cgi-bin/:
info.pysome.py
If I open an URL with any other file name, I get 404 error from uWSGI - that is good. But if I open an URL with either of actual script names, then I get 500 from uWSGI (hence 502 Bad Gateway from NGINX).
URLs:
http://localhost/another.pyhttp://localhost/info.pyhttp://localhost/some.py
Output:
[pid: 9606|app: -1|req: -1/1] 127.0.0.1 () {42 vars in 624 bytes} [Fri Oct 18 15:40:50 2019] GET /another.py => generated 9 bytes in 0 msecs (HTTP/1.1 404) 2 headers in 71 bytes (0 switches on core 0)

So obviously it finds the files (info.py and some.py), but what is the reason of the 500 error from uWSGI? Do I have something wrong in either of configurations?
Here's one of the Python scripts:
def application(environ, start_response):
start_response('200 OK', [('Content-Type', 'text/html')])
return [ "Ololo".encode("utf-8") ]
uWSGI with CGI plugin is installed using instructions from documentaion:
curl http://uwsgi.it/install | bash -s cgi /tmp/uwsgi
sudo mv /tmp/uwsgi /usr/bin
I wrote a blog post with more details on the matter.
