CentOSなどRHEL系Linuxで「RuntimeError: The ‘apxs’ command appears not to be installed or is not executable」

2024年4月26日

今回はCentOSやFedoraなどRHEL系Linuxディストリビューションを使っていて、Pythonのmod-wsgiをインストールしようとしたときに下記のエラーが出たときの対処法についてご紹介しようと思います。

私はDockerを使っていてAlmaLinux9.3のイメージを使用していたときに上記のエラーが起きました。

結論から言うとhttpd-develをインストールすればエラーが出なくなります。
dnfを使ってインストールする場合は下記のコマンドとなるでしょう。

dnf install httpd-devel -y

1	dnf install httpd-devel -y

上記を解決したあとは、今度は「ERROR: Could not build wheels for mod-wsgi, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects」のようなエラーが出るかもしれません。
