[mod_python] attribute snacks

Whenever I hear "it works on the command line but not in mod_python" I 
recall the problem I had, which was similar, but with different 
symptoms. Problem resulted from *library incompatibility* issues. I 
don't know if this is what is causing this problem or not, but make sure 
that there is only *one* version for each library you are using compiled 
into apache - especially if these libraries are for db's like mysql. See 
the mod_python faq, as I believe this is addressed there.

Hope this helps.
