lxml has been a cause of hanging in the server in the past. Try uninstalling it, and then the server will fall back to using etree from other sources:
http://trac.mapnik.org/browser/tags/release-0.7.1/bindings/python/mapnik/ogcserver/wms130.py#L30 To find if lxml is installed and where it lives do: $ python >>> import lxml >>> print lxml.__file__ If this fixes things then I would recommend installing lxml from source, as lxml is required for proper GetCapabilities response.
