configuring apache for python

If you have basic understanding of apache, then this article is highly recommended for setup: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/howto/cgi.html I did setup this in my mac/OSx, was not easy to find info on web, hence I am briefing out the flow: 1) uncomment "LoadModule cgi_module libexec/apache2/mod_cgi.so" ( for me it exists in httpd.conf ) 2) edit virtual hosts file to look like this: ( for mac, it is in httpd-vhosts.conf ) Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks ExecCGI AllowOverride All Order allow,deny Allow from all NOTE: "/www" is where my project resides "ExecCGI" is the option that has to be there 3) Below the directory closing, add this line: ( for mac, it is in httpd-vhosts.conf ) AddHandler cgi-script cgi py 4) Restart apache: "sudo apachectl restart" Now running your project should give "End of script output before headers" error in
