Hi Folks: I figured it out. The idea is NOT to use CGI. It is not needed. Simply use a Django WSGI URL to access the python module (in a view) and everything it works fine. It as blindingly obvious once I figured it out.
Here is what I did to get it to work: 1. Added a new URL called '/status/sync' in urls.py: url(r'^sync/status/$','status'), 2. Added status to my views.py: from django.http import HttpResponse import datetime def sync_status(request): now = datetime.datetime.now() html = 'now = %s' % (now) return HttpResponse(html) 3. Changed my index.html javascript as follows: $('#status').load('/employees/sync/status'); And everything worked perfectly in both environments. I have now removed the CGI stuff.
