[mod_python] mod_python.so: undefined symbol: ap_loaded_modules

have no clue what's wrong.

It is a symbolic link.

This is what my log says:

based on 20 max processes and 0 max threads.

Same thing here:

# ldd /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_python.so |grep python

libpython2.3.so.1.0 => /usr/lib/libpython2.3.so.1.0 (0xb7e27000)
