@#%$$!@@#$! ... webpy, mod_python & apache.

 

config blues

The error above usually means you havent included the apache-devel source. Whoever wrote the makefile for mod_python installer has a sense of humour. I've been re-installing apache2, mod_python, webpy without much luck mainly due to mandriva`s insistance of changing around the packages.

 

mandriva crap

Their current 2006 install mod_python setup uses python2.3 (unless I`m wrong). So its back to source ... or maybe ubantu. This is the trade offs you make using linux as server & desktop. I'll have to correct this. Its a waste of time.

 

its the little things

Aside from that, stacks of little things are also causing annoyances:

 

*kvm switch sending erroronious extra console characters causing the mouse to jump everywhere.

 

*lots of apache,mod_python setup with mandriva changes

 

*webpy stack problems that result in wsgi weirdness (causing errors before I even start coding). I know I got mod_python working becuase I can get your stock standard python examples to work with apache. And why does webpy require trailing slashes?

 

*firefox releases without bloody installers!@#$

 

*crappy groups.google.com which change the layout all the time (next buttons, replies etc)

 

So I see the humour in the mod_python comments & dont take it too seriously :)
