Hi indivC,

This is the script I use to set up python for httpd:

#!/bin/sh
#
# Enable Python3 to operate in a chrooted environment (for httpd)
#
export CHROOT=/var/www
rm -rf ${CHROOT}/usr ${CHROOT}/var ${CHROOT}/etc ${CHROOT}/sbin \
       ${CHROOT}/run ${CHROOT}/logs
mkdir -p ${CHROOT}/usr/local/bin ${CHROOT}/usr/lib ${CHROOT}/usr/libexec \
         ${CHROOT}/sbin ${CHROOT}/var/run ${CHROOT}/etc \
         ${CHROOT}/usr/local/lib ${CHROOT}/run ${CHROOT}/logs
chown www  ${CHROOT}/usr/local/bin ${CHROOT}/usr/lib ${CHROOT}/usr/libexec \
         ${CHROOT}/sbin ${CHROOT}/var/run ${CHROOT}/etc \
         ${CHROOT}/usr/local/lib ${CHROOT}/run ${CHROOT}/logs
cp -p /sbin/ldconfig ${CHROOT}/sbin
cp -p /usr/local/bin/python3.9 ${CHROOT}/usr/local/bin/python
cp -pr /usr/local/lib/python3.9 ${CHROOT}/usr/local/lib
cp -p /usr/local/lib/libpython3.9.so.*  ${CHROOT}/usr/local/lib
cp -p /usr/local/lib/libintl.so.7.0 ${CHROOT}/usr/local/lib
cp -p /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so.7.0 ${CHROOT}/usr/local/lib
cp -p /usr/lib/libpthread.so.* ${CHROOT}/usr/lib
cp -p /usr/lib/libutil.so.* ${CHROOT}/usr/lib
cp -p /usr/lib/libm.so.* ${CHROOT}/usr/lib
cp -p /usr/lib/libc.so.* ${CHROOT}/usr/lib
cp -p /usr/libexec/ld.so ${CHROOT}/usr/libexec
cp -p /usr/lib/libz.so.* ${CHROOT}/usr/lib
cp -p /usr/lib/libpthread.so.* ${CHROOT}/usr/lib
cp -p /usr/lib/libutil.so.* ${CHROOT}/usr/lib
cp -p /usr/lib/libm.so.* ${CHROOT}/usr/lib
cp -p /usr/lib/libssl.so* ${CHROOT}/usr/lib
cp -p /usr/lib/libcrypto.so* ${CHROOT}/usr/lib
cp -p /etc/pwd.db ${CHROOT}/etc
# build ld.hints.so file so python can find its libraries
chroot ${CHROOT} /sbin/ldconfig /usr/local/lib

Hope it helps.
