I want to deploy my flask-restx application on a shared hosting. Since I am beginner in deployment, I followed a video tutorial from youtube. I did step by step by following this tutorial. For those who do not want to go through the tutorial, I am writing the steps:
- I created an application from the Python cPanel Initial set up in Cpanel
- Then I opened terminal and changed my venv and installed flask by "pip install flask"
- Project Structure
filas_folder/
├──public
├──tmp
│ └──restart.txt
├──app.py
└──passenger_wsgi.py
app.py looks like
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route("/")
def main_():
return "flask is running"
@app.route("/user")
def main_2():
return "user is running"
if __name__ == "__main__": app.run()
- Restart app from cpanel
passenger.py looks like
import imp
import os
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, os.path.dirname(__file__))
wsgi = imp.load_source('wsgi', 'app.py')
application = wsgi.app
when I open www.example.com
flask is running
But when I open www.example.com/user

My system has cloudlinux and uses apache server. This is not the first deployment. Many wordpress and static websites are running on the server. I opened apache logs at /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log I get the error "Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace., referer" http://example.com/user"
