Sorry, I suspect that what you are telling him is wrong and you misunderstand what he is telling you about his setup. I don't believe he is saying that that is where Django is installed, but where his Django site is being held. It is known that when using mod_python that you must list the parent directory of where the site is placed. Depending on how you set up stuff in urls.py and other places, you must also list the site directory itself. Thus that they have the two paths in PythonPath is quite valid. See the mod_python documentation on Django site for details. What would help here is if the OP actually said what was meant by 'site doesn't work'. Is there Python exceptions in Apache error logs? What error does the browser show? Graham > If that doesn't work, Django is not in your Python path.
