is this the section of docs you wanted me to review? "If req.filename is empty, the module name defaults to 'index'.Once module is imported, the remaining part of the URI up to the beginning of any query data (a.k.a. PATH INFO) is used to find an object within the module. The Publisher handler traverses the path, one element at a time from left to right, mapping the elements to Python object within the module. <-this sentence is lost on me If no path info was given in the URL, the Publisher handler will use the default value of 'index'. If the last element is an object inside a module, and the one immediately preceding it is a directory (i.e. no module name is given), then the module name will also default to 'index'." as for the versions of python that work with mod_python: os:winXP loading (win32 pre-compiled modules, not compiling apache. mod_python gives error during windows installation if it can not find registry entry for python 2.5. i was unable to find a binary mod_python MSI installer that would work for python 2.6. if there is a binary ready to download, please advise on download location. regarding 2.5.2 versus 2.5, i rolled back to 2.5.0 when i saw this in the error.log [Tue Dec 23 11:51:00 2008] [error] python_init: Python version mismatch, expected '2.5', found '2.5.2'. b/c of this, i was not sure how well it would work , especially with my being new to mod_python.you answered that this error message means nothing. thanks!
