That pretty much looks like it’s the answer. I took the advice in the link in your original email about rebuilding pycrypto using MinGW, and so far it all works perfectly. I guess mod_fastcgi and mod_fcgid are no longer viable options on windows. Thanks for your help!

Just found this Django ticket, which could be relevant: http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/8742 Ideally, you'd go back to mod_wsgi, as it'll be better supported in general. What broke with Python 2.7?

Shame you can't use Linux (in a VM or something) instead, but I get that some places are strict about OS choice for servers. So the latter error looks to be a file path formatting issue. Can you show me the config file? Is it using "/" or "\"? It could be that it's generated wrong (I've seen Python do that on Windows when part of cygwin, though it could be our fault). People have posted about the "DLL load failed" error on Windows.

I am attempting a clean install of the latest reviewboard on Apache 2.2 on Windows XP (sadly, I have no choice over the operating system). In the past, we had no trouble using python 2.6 and wsgi, but we are trying to upgrade everything to python 2.7, and for some reason wsgi stopped working. Naturally, I decided to try both mod_fcgid AND mod_fastcgi, but I can't seem to get either of those working either, and I was hoping that you might be able to help me out.

Reviewboard claims to be sleeping, which, by the way, made coffee shoot from my nose. The fcgid fails silently... it just refuses to serve anything but 403. FastCGI fails more violently: [crit] (OS 123)The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect. : FastCGI: can't exec server "C:/mars/reviews/htdocs/ reviewboard.fcgi", CreateNamedPipe() failed [crit] (OS 123)The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect. : FastCGI: can't start server "C:/mars/reviews/htdocs/ reviewboard.fcgi": spawn_fs_process() failed This did *not* make coffee shoot from my nose. I am pretty much at a loss here, and I'm hoping there's something that can be done to help me. Pretty please! -- Want to help the Review Board project?
