To get Apache to be able to serve files statically, the handler (mod-wsgi,
or uWSGI) must be disabled for those folders. So, you need another
directive under the ones you list, that looks like this:
{{{
<Location /static>
SetHandler default-handler
</Location>
}}}
I believe the /static location directive must occur after the / Location
directive to turn the handler off correctly.
This allows the request to be caught by Apache rather than uWSGI, and
redirected to the static file folder.
Also, the line:
{{{
Alias /static/ /usr/local/wsgi/static/
}}}
Should actually look like this:
{{{
Alias /static /usr/local/wsgi/static/
}}}
Without the trailing slash on the alias.
