All: As it turns out, it was the URL I was using that made the difference - and the URL that worked was http://localhost/cgi-bin/helloworld.py/handler Note the /handler at the end of the URL --- this made all the difference. I found the answer here: http://mohitsuley.wordpress.com/2008/07/31/my-mod_python-101/ So, in summary, to have mod_python work: 1. Add the following to your httpd.conf file: #Start of section pasted in by YOURNAME LoadModule python_module modules/mod_python.so <Directory "C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\cgi- bin/"> AddHandler mod_python .py PythonHandler mod_python.publisher PythonDebug On </Directory> #End of section pasted in by YOURNAME I put this at the end of the other LoadModule entries in the httpd.conf file. 2. Save your httpd.conf file. 3. Restart Apache (either close/restart or restart the Windows service, depending on your configuration). 4. Ensure the URL to your .py files in your cgi-bin directory (or whatever directory you've configured, see above) end in /handler I hope this helps someone...
