[mod_python] another beginners question: problem with <Location> directive

Mod_python adds the directory to sys.path for you, this is how Python
finds the script. But when you <Location> there is no way for mod_python
to know what to add to sys.path, so you have to do it explicitely, using
the PythonPath directive, try this:

<Location /python>
  AddHandler python-program .py
  PythonHandler mptest
  PythonPath "['/var/www/html/python']+sys.path"
  PythonDebug On
</Location>
