Python as FastCGI or CGI

[Marcel Ruhf]

Hallo there,


first, my server specs:

=============

Operating System: CentOS 5.6 (64 Bit)
HTTPD version: 2.2.19
PHP version: 5.2.17 (as CGI)
Perl version: 5.8.8
Python version: 2.4
Miva support
Plesk Panel version: 10.3.0

=============

I would like to provide my customers with Python support for their hosting accounts.
On plesk, Python runs as mod_python. What I would like to achieve s to run Python
as CGI or FastCGI. I generally don't like to use mod_python due to the fact that it executes
scripts using the apache user.

Thanks in advance.

Do you have a specific question?

Clarification

Hallo @breun,

what I would like to ask / what I have asked for in the previous post is whether or not it would be posible to run Python scripts as FastCGI or CGI as I have not seen any posts regarding this on the Net yet?

Kind regards,
Marcel Ruhf

I believe it would work just fine. At least I know it does for Perl scripts (I rename scripts to *.fcgi to run them using FastCGI). Have you tried Python scripts? If so and it didn't work, what have you done exactly?
