Hi @trenta! Thanks for reporting.

Please provide more info about your setup. In particular:

  • what's your distro and version?
  • how do you install the app?

For example it works for me on:

I see the same issue trying to install puppetboard 4.0.1 with either v8.2.0 or voxpupuli/puppet-puppetboard@f9f1919.
I used the vcsrepo install method on RHEL 8 with the python38* packages including mod_wsgi.

Switching to the pip install method made it work but that prevents me from easily doing customizations with my own fork of puppetboard.

Thanks for more info @tgc

The fix has been released in v4.0.2.
