Invalid command WSGIDaemonProcess Deploy Django application on CentOS 6.7

I am using Django 1.8 on CentOS 6.7 with Apache Server version: Apache/2.2.15 (Unix).

I have followed the steps in How To Serve Django Applications with Apache and mod_wsgi on CentOS 7. But at last step when I start the Apache server with command : service httpd start instead of systemctl start httpd beacuse I have Centos 6.7 not CentOS 7 according to tutorial.

It is giving the following error:

Starting httpd: Syntax error on line 10 of /etc/httpd/conf.d/django.conf:
Invalid command 'WSGIDaemonProcess', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module ot included in the server configuration

you can check the django.conf here:

Alias /static /home/ftpispy/ispy/static
<Directory /home/ftpispy/ispy/static>
    Require all granted
</Directory>
<Directory /home/ftpispy/ispy/ispy>
    <Files wsgi.py>
        Require all granted
    </Files>
</Directory>
WSGIDaemonProcess ispy python-path=/home/ftpispy/ispy:/home/ftpispy/ispy/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages
WSGIProcessGroup ispy
WSGIScriptAlias / /home/ftpispy/ispy/ispy/wsgi.py

Thanks in advance.Please suggest any other option to deploy on CentOS 6.7 with djnago 1.8.
