www/mod_python support in apache22?

[Chris Shenton]

FWIW, I've been converting my python webapps under apache22 from
mod_python to mod_wsgi.   I've found mod_python to be a real pain to get
working on some Solaris installs and mod_wsgi to be much easier to
configure and tweak.   This includes Trac and Pylons-based webapps.

Here's a blurb from the Trac folks:

http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracModWSGI

and here's the author's docs on mod_wsgi integration with Trac:

http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/IntegrationWithTrac

The latter is filled with good info on variations you can use.


Having said that, here's my config from a box I haven't yet converted
from mod_python; I used ports for Apache, Trac, Python, SVN, ...
