In my mods-enabled directory under /etc/apache2, I have a symbolic link 
to file mod_python.load which exists in directory mods-available.  The 
single line in mod_python.load is: LoadModule python_module 
/usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_python.so.

Even in my apache error log it says Apache/2.0.48 mod_python/3.0.4 
Python/2.3.3 configured - resuming normal operations when I restart 
apache. 

I think as far as apache knows, it's running mod_python, just not 
executing my .py file!

Any more suggestions?

Thanks in advance!!
