[mod_python] mod_python startup error

Graham,

Here the relevant details:

in httpd2.conf one line:

LoadModule python_module        extramodules/mod_python.so


In 16_mod_python.conf:

<Location /python>
    SetHandler python-program
    PythonHandler mod_python.publisher
</Location>

After dinner I'm going to look into this more! This is the current
setup.

Wouter.
