Hi, I'm having problems building mod_python on Mac OS10.5. Here's how the problem arose: 1) I got source for the 3.3.1 release. I built the source following the directions on the website ( http://www.modpython.org/live/current/doc-html/inst-compiling.html). The build seemed to have gone fine. 2) Then, I tried to configure apache. At the end of the make install process, it told me to add the following line to my httpd.conf file: LoadModule python_module libexec/apache2/mod_python.so I did this, and then restarted apache. 3) At this point, I began to get the message "Firefox can't establish connection to server..." for all the servers served by apache on my machine. 4) So, I ran the command apachectl -t . This produced the following output: "syntax error on line 116 of /private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/libexec/apache2/mod_python.so into server: dlopen(/usr/libexec/apache2/mod_python.so, 10): no suitable image found. Did find:\n\t/usr/libexec/apache2/mod_python.so: no matching architecture in universal wrapper" 5) So I looked up this error on google. Apparently this is a known problem (see e.g. http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/quetz-mod_python-dev/200807.mbox/%3C569803375.1216130972521.JavaMail.jira@brutus%3E). It was suggested that the the problem is that "the compiler is not creating a full fat version of the Apache module for mod_wsgi and when it is loaded into Apache, it can't find correct version for the architecture." I followed these instructions here: http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/InstallationOnMacOSX (-- albeit they're for wsgi, but shold be similar for mod_python). After modifying the Makefile and redoing make && sudo make install, it still does not work. I still get the same error from apachectl, and running "file /usr/libexec/apache2/mod_python.so" shows that I still don't have 64bit binaries: "/usr/libexec/apache2/mod_python.so: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures /usr/libexec/apache2/mod_python.so (for architecture i386): Mach-O bundle i386 /usr/libexec/apache2/mod_python.so (for architecture ppc): Mach-O bundle ppc" 6) So, what do I do?
