[mod_python] Apache startup error using mod_python under Windows 2000 (have msvcr70.dll)

Hi all,

Apologies if I've missed the answer to this question somewhere, but I've
searched to no avail.

Whilst attempting to start, Apache fails with:

Syntax error on line 175 of C:/Program Files/Apache
Group/Apache2/conf/httpd.conf:
Cannot load C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/modules/mod_python.so into
server: The specified module could not be found.

I've checked that I've specified the correct path to mod_python.so.

I saw in another post that msvcr70.dll is required, and duly downloaded and
copied it into winnt\system32, believing I had solved the problem.  Alas, no
such luck.  Same error.

OS = Windows 2000 5.00.2195, Service pack 4
Python = 2.3
Apache = 2.0.47
msvcr70.dll = 7.00.9064.0

This is the relevent part of httpd.conf:

LoadModule python_module modules/mod_python.so

<Directory C:/data/webroot/htdocs>
  AddHandler python-program .py
  PythonHandler mptest
  PythonDebug On
</Directory>

As an aside, I am also running mod_perl and php4apache2 - but I don't
imagine they would affect anything.

I'm new to python - haven't even written a single line of code yet, however
I have run the interpreter to verify that it installed properly.

I have added C:\python23 to my path but haven't set any other environment
variables.

Thanks in advance,

Laird
