hi all, how you must configure Apache 2.2 or mod_python?, to avoid the following error:

MOD_PYTHON ERROR
ProcessId: 5399
Interpreter: '127.0.1.1'
ServerName: '127.0.1.1'
DocumentRoot: '/var/www'
URI: '/cgi-bin/wps/'
Location: None
Directory: '/usr/lib/cgi-bin/'
Filename: '/usr/lib/cgi-bin/wps/'
PathInfo: ''
Phase: 'PythonHandler'
Handler: 'pywps'
Traceback (most recent call last):

AttributeError: module '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/pywps/init.pyc' contains no 'handler'

this is for a configuration (ubuntu (10.4)) for AMD64. thanks for your answers

it looks like you're missing some of the end of the error message. – Wayne Werner
Aside: I believe mod_python is no longer maintained. Last update listed here modpython.org was in January 2008. Perhaps mod_wsgi would suit your purposes. – mechanical_meat
Adam is right, mod_python is officially no longer maintained (the open-source-equivalent-of-EOL kind of "no longer maintained") and its creator has been recommending that people switch to mod_wsgi for some time now. – David Z

In my case, changing

PythonHandler pywps

to

PythonHandler wps

in the .htaccess (or the apache configuration file) fixed the problem.

I think that the file pywps.py has been renamed to wps.py, and this gives problems, since the sample configuration file has been left with the old name.
