Hello there,
I have this weird problem with a mod_python application.
Recently I installed ElementTree and cElementTree through ez_setup.py,
even though they were already installed normally (this might not be too
smart, but I don't think it's related to my actual problem).
I have a web application written on top of mod_python that uses
cElementTree for several things. After installing cElementTree through
ez_setup.py, it turns out that I got this Exception on the site:
(most relevant info at the end, obviously, it's quite lengthy)
Mod_python error: "PythonHandler equilex"

ExtractionError: Can't extract file(s) to egg cache
The following error occurred while trying to extract file(s) to the
Python egg
cache:
[Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/www/.python-eggs'
The Python egg cache directory is currently set to:
/var/www/.python-eggs
Perhaps your account does not have write access to this directory? You can
change the cache directory by setting the PYTHON_EGG_CACHE environment
variable to point to an accessible directory.
Now, I already had a /tmp/eggs dir for eggs, and I had a SetEnv
directive in my vhost config for my Trac vhost (which uses eggs). So I
moved the SetEnv directive from the vhost config to my global
httpd.conf. Curious enough, after restarting apache2, I still got the
same error!! Is there any reason why it may not be picking up the env
variable that points it to the other directory?
Regards,
Manuzhai
