Not sure how the Sharing Preferences starts apache but I suspect it uses something similar to sudo. At any rate I tried starting it the way you described and mod_python still worked as expected. I then removed /usr/local/bin from my personal account's path and logged back in, confirmed that the path lacked /usr/local/bin, used sudo -H to start apache again and mod_python still worked. I then renamed /usr/local/bin to /usr/local/bin2, restarted apache and mod_python still worked. It seems mod_python only needs to find the executable at the time you compile mod_python. Though I have my setup working, the question of where mod_python got the path in the error log in my original message remains. Neither interpreter on my computer yields that result via sys.path (although some of the items in that list correspond, via symlinks, to locations on the path from the interpreter that came with Leopard). --S.
