Folks,
I was trying to get mod_python to provide PSP on Python. It took a while for me to figure out that although apt-get nicely installed mod_python, it installed an older version (2.7), that doesn't have PSP support.
I don't know Debian, and specifically I don't know how to get the mod_python 3.1 package (in unstable) installed. A few questions:
1) If I add the 'unstable' distributions to the list of sources, and attempt to upgrade from there, am I doing a risky thing?
Can't you just install apache2 (separate package from apache)? Nevermind, it is still only in unstable.
mod_python 3.1 does only work on Apache 2. I usually take apache out and build it myself, along with mod_python and svn. I think the major 'reconfiguration' either way you go is just copying out the revelant bits of httpd.conf into the new httd.conf
2) It seems apache is 1.3.31, but PSP requires Apache 2. Could such an upgrade be done without risking a lot? Would we need to reconfigure everything?
3) Is 'unstable' before 'testing'? I assume so. Would we be risking too much to allow it? We don't push the envelope too far w/ what we do on Brutus, would it be an acceptable risk?
Yes, unstable is before testing. I think it is an acceptable risk, assuming that brutus is what we say it is: an unstable box :)
BTW: I want PSP so we can query the RDBMS from it and remove a bunch of static pages and make them dynamic. Ought speed Gump up, and simplify it, and we'll get better reports.
No Cheetah? :)
