Description
01. Download latest Apache 2.4 64bit from https://www.apachelounge.com/download/ 
02. Unzip httpd-2.4.43-win64-VS16.zip to "c:\Apache24" directory
03. Install Apache as a service. Open command prompt as Administrator and type: c:\Apache24\bin\httpd.exe -k install
04. Start Apache service (Windows + type: "services") and press Enter
05. Look at Apache24 service and right click -> Start
06. Open http://localhost
07. When you see "It works!" everithing is ok

08. Download latest Python 3.8 64bit from https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.8.2/python-3.8.2-amd64.exe
09. Install python-3.8.2-amd64.exe to "c:\Python38" directory
10. Download WSGI module for Python from  https://pypi.org/project/mod-wsgi/#files
11. The best option is Downloaded Binaries for Python Extension Pachages from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#mod_wsgi
12. Download "mod_wsgi-4.7.1+ap24vc15-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl" file
13. Run "python pip3 install mod_wsgi-4.7.1+ap24vc15-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl"
14. Now we make WSGI configuration for Python 3.8
15. Run the command and generate a config "c:\Python38\Scripts\mod_wsgi-express.exe module-config > config.txt"
16. Open config.txt and all lines paste to "c:\Apache24\conf\httpd.conf" (at the end of the file)

17. Create sample WSGI aplication
18. Make directory "c:\WSGI"
19. Create a new file "c:\WSGI\web.wsgi" 

#!c:\Python38\python.exe

def application(environ, start_response):
    status = '200 OK'
    output = b'Hello World!\n'
    response_headers = [('Content-type', 'text/plain'),
                        ('Content-Length', str(len(output)))]
    start_response(status, response_headers)
    return [output]

20. Open "c:\Apache24\conf\httpd.conf" and Enable Virtual hosts, line 510
21. Open Apache vHosts file "c:\Apache24\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf" and paste new configuration

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot "C:/Apache24/htdocs"
    ErrorLog "C:/Apache24/logs/wsgi.error.log"
    LogLevel warn
    CustomLog "C:/Apache24/logs/wsgi.access.log" combined
    WSGIScriptAlias /wsgi "C:/WSGI/web.wsgi"
    <Directory "C:/WSGI">
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
        AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .py
     </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

22. Now Restart Apache Service (Windows + type: "services") and press Enter
23. Look at Apache24 service and right click -> Restart
24. Now open http://localhost/ default application
25. And http://localhost/wsgi sample WSGI application
