But you are launching the Python script as yourself aren't you?

Apache does not run as you but a distinct user which will have
different access permissions.

And how did you do that? Was the page access in same 'apache'
subdirectory.

Change:

WSGIScriptAlias / C:/wsgi-django-app/testing/apache/django.wsgi

to:

Alias / C:/wsgi-django-app/testing/apache/django.wsgi

This will cause exact same file to be served as static file rather
than interpreted as WSGI script file. If you can't access it either,
then it is a permissions problem.
