[mod_python] Errors with Apache 1.3.12 and mod_python

[Michael Schwager]

Hi,
Yes- I am a newbie.  I just installed apache 1.3.12 with mod_python 2.4.1 
on my Solaris 2.6 box.  Everything went ok, except I am getting an error 
when I try to run the test.py as instructed in the install docs (see 
below).  Notice that, strangely, I get no errors- indeed the script works 
fine- if I run httpd with the -X option.  I note that I must be in the 
htdocs directory for that to work (thus, httpd sees the test subdir, which 
contains the test.py file).  So I'm not sure how the directories and 
filenames are related to PythonHandler, and how they are found by httpd 
and/or python.  But I think the problem is path-related.

Any useful help will be appreciated.  I do not have a .htaccess file; I put 
the appropriate lines in the httpd.conf file:
AddHandler python-program .py
PythonHandler test
PythonDebug On

Here is the error:
[Mon Jul 24 02:17:20 2000] [error] PythonHandler test: Traceback (most
