Try adding the following after the SetHandler for mod_python.

  <Files *.php>
  SetHandler None
  </Files>

For example, in my .htaccess file I have put:

  SetHandler python-program
  PythonHandler vampire

  <Files *.php>
  SetHandler None
  </Files>

Just for .php files, it should undo the SetHandler directive used above that point.
 his appears to now allow me to dump PHP files in the same directory as that
managed by mod_python using a SetHandler directive.

In respect of mod_autoindex, is the problem you have that with Apache 1.3, a
reference against the directory would still honour setting of DirectoryIndex and
thus redirect to index.html as an example, but with Apache 2.0 it doesn't?

I found this problem with Apache 2.0 as well, although I note that in Apache 1.3
it only worked for the top level directory managed by mod_python. If there were
subdirectories under that, it wouldn't work for them anyway.

In Vampire 1.1 I specifically have a setting, eg:

  PythonOption VampireDirectoryIndex index.html

to get around this problem. That is, I handle the redirection with Vampire when a
directory access occurs. With Apache 1.3, I use a HTTP redirect, but with Apache 2.0
I use an internal redirect.

I have an actual note about this issue on updated web page I put up for Vampire 1.1.

Hope this helps.
