Simple, don't use mod_python as it hasn't been patched to build cleanly on a 64bit Intel MacOSX Leopard machine. Use instead mod_wsgi 2.0 (RC) as it will build out of the box on MacOSX. See: http://www.modwsgi.org http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/IntegrationWithDjango http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/InstallationOnMacOSX Graham > Thanks > > John > > On Jan 18, 12:08 pm, Christian Joergensen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > John M wrote: > > > OK, > > > > So I know Linux / Apache pretty well, never really done any hard-core > > > stuff with it.
