I'm not an expert in the subject, but I have experienced many troubles in the past while installing and configuring apache and mod_python... It is important to know that each version of apache may match or not a given version of mod_python, so make sure to install the correct versions of each component. Right now, I'm running on windows the following versions: Apache/2.0.55 (Win32) mod_python/3.2.8 Python/2.4.2 I installed "xampp" which is a single application that installs all at once (Apache, php, mysql, etc...) except mod_python, which should be installed separately. I suggest you search the download files on Xampp's sourceforge site and look for an older version with Apache 2.0.55 . I'm not sure, but I think xampp version 1.5.1 will be ok (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=61776) Then, get the mod_python installer (version 3.2.8) http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/modpython/win/3.2.8/ After that, all you have to do is a few modifications in Apache httpd.config file. Uncomment (or add) the following line: LoadModule python_module modules/mod_python.so And finally, if you want, you can set the configurations of the handler's you want to use with mod_python (they can be publisher, psp, or any other custom one). These configurations can be set on this file, or separately on each web folder as .htaccess files. Hope it helps... Luis -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
