The fact that you get that far would suggest that mod_python is successfully installed, and you should start attempting to use it from apache. See the documentation for how to set this up, including the necessary changes to apapche.conf or writing a .htaccess file to use mod_python. The documentation also includes a sample "hello world" program that should get you started. Hope this helps -- Tom Wardill
