Do you have a "main.py" located anywhere else in your document tree?

There are some issues with using the same named file with the publisher
extensions in more than one directory. This may or may not be related:

  http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-9
  http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-10
  http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-11

  http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-12
