"Using "eggs" with mod_python¶ If you installed Django from a Python egg or are using eggs in your Django project, some extra configuration is required. Create an extra file in your project (or somewhere else) that contains something like the following: import os os.environ['PYTHON_EGG_CACHE'] = '/some/directory' Here, /some/directory is a directory that the Apache Web server process can write to. It will be used as the location for any unpacking of code the eggs need to do. Then you have to tell mod_python to import this file before doing anything else. This is done using the PythonImport directive to mod_python. You need to ensure that you have specified the PythonInterpreter directive to mod_python as described above (you need to do this even if you aren't serving multiple installations in this case). Then add the PythonImport line in the main server configuration (i.e., outside the Location or VirtualHost sections). For example: PythonInterpreter my_django PythonImport /path/to/my/project/file.py my_django Note that you can use an absolute path here (or a normal dotted import path), as described in the mod_python manual. We use an absolute path in the above example because if any Python path modifications are required to access your project, they will not have been done at the time the PythonImport line is processed. " concerning python eggs, but it is not clear to me the name or location of the file in question.
