mod_python woes

[rcholbert]

We're looking to utilize python webscripting for apache via the mod_python package, but the one included with Plesk is horribly outdated and lacks several key features that we have been utilizing on our test servers.

Upgrading python, then mod_python and getting everything to play nice together seems to be an unsurmountable task right now; nothing we do seems to get it to work right.

So basically we're looking for help with the following:

1. Up-to-date version of mod_python (3.1.4).
2. Steps to compile our own version of mod_python 3.1.4.

If anyone has anything like something like what ART does for mod_python that would also be awesome.

Thanks in advance.

Just for anyone else.

mod_python 3.1 requires at least python 2.3 to be installed to work correctly. Plesk 7.5.4 comes with 2.2.3.
