[mod_python] Problem with Session module with multiple scriptalias not under t he document root

You should start addressing this by removing all reference to CGI. You
don't need (and shouldn't use) any ScriptAlias directives to make
mod_python work, since it has nothing to do with CGI at all.

Once all your directories containing Python code are under DocumentRoot, I
think it will work correctly.
