Description

I get 404 Not Found after Netbox setup with Apache 2 and Debian 8 and 9 following the official documentation: https://netbox.readthedocs.io/en/stable/installation/
The test with python3 manage.py run ... works.

I had to install libapache2-mod-wsgi-py3 for Apache 2 to restart correctly with "WSGIPassAuthorization on" in the config.

This happens also on a clean Debian 9 install. What do I do wrong? How can I debug this reasonably?

I found this thread while attempting to install NetBox on a fresh Debian 9 server. The docs still do not indicate the requirement for "libapache2-mod-wsgi-py3" on Debian (and I seeing what has been reported here) so I created an edit that would have helped me while following the installation docs.
