Hi Robert, I had quite the same problem, it's been solved by setting DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE to "settings" instead of "syslog.settings" in <Location>.
My current apache2.conf file sets handler to "python-program" instead of "mod_python", you can also try it that way. Hope this helps, Anthony. stereoit wrote: > Hi, I'm having problem with mod_python. > > EnvironmentError: Could not import settings 'syslog.settings' (Is it > on sys.path?
