@doug

Have you enabled “mod_python.load” in mods-enabled? You can do this by just creating a symlink to the same file in mods-available:
cd /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/ && ln -s ../mods-avaible/mod_python.load

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

I am a python newbie. After adding your code:PythonHandler mod_python.publisher to site-available/default, when I try to restart apache2, I get the following error:
Invalid command ‘PythonHandler’, perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration. any idea why? thanks, doug

@Bruce
Sorry I can’t help you with that.

@Adil
I’m not sure you can actually do this.
It could be done on 2 different virtual hosts, but you cannot specify 2 different values of PythonHandler for one vhost.

Other than this, I’m glad this post helped! :)

Thanks for the great post.
Now i’m asking if it is possible to embed both .psp and .py files at the same time within apache?
I tried to add instructions of .psp & .py in httpd.con file but it does not work :( .

Cheers for the examples, they helped clear a few things up for me.

Once thing I can’t workout and have not been able to find any working examples is “form based user authentication” using sessions. I’m able to implement sessions and query postgres etc……but I can’t find a “this is how you do it in python” example of user auth using sessions.

Any ideas?

Thanks again!!!!!
