If I ever come across a production system where a python app is not installed in a virtualenv, I consider that a bug. virtualenv is the basis of all of our python production systems (our dev systems too). > They insist that I cannot use mod_wsgi (it annoys me intensely, but hey > that's life) and HAVE to use mod_python. mod_python is old, insecure, unmaintained, unmanaged - and most importantly - not supported for django. > Is there any other way to get this working without virtualenv? Find the right person to talk to your in your org, tell them that mod_python is dangerous, and that virtualenv is the industry standard way of deploying a python application, and that wsgi is the industry standard way of connecting a python web application to a web server.
