Hi Lucas,
if's possible try Centos 6.
I just tried. Installed Apache with 'yum groupinstall "Web Server"',
disabled selinux (or configure it), unzipped web2py.zip src file,
configured Apache and 'apachectl start'.
Voila it works.

CentOS 5 uses an old ver of python I believe but I stopped after 5.6.
The only way I got it to work was under virtualenv and that was after
compiling separate version of python (best not to dump the old version
as yum depends on python 2.4). As Peter states it will require great
manual labor on your part to get it up and running.
CentOS 6 has python 2.6.5 or something. web2py is cake on 6.x. Or if
you're in a bind, virtualenv.
Regards,
David

hello one and all,
i have tried to run the web2py install script on a centos 5.7 server.
it seems to install ok with the addition of adding python 2.6 from
source and compiling it as well. after the install script runs,
apache doesn't restart properly giving the warning "NameVirtualHost *:
80 has no VirtualHosts" which leads to an "500 Internal Server Error"
if you access the http interface.
after reading a bunch of posts under this group for an install on
centos 5, i am wondering, has anyone gotten web2py to successfully
work under centos 5.7 or centos 5 and if so, please direct me to the
thread or solution?
thank you in advance and have a great day. lucas
