Upgrade from Python 2.4 to 2.5

2007-05-07 Thread RollyF 

I am using fedora 6 distribution which comes with Python 2.4.3. I then
installed Python 2.5.1 and re-installed the  packages I needed for my
application. I verified that at the terminal, when I typed in
"python", what's loaded is Python 2.5. I am runnign apache2 and
mod_python. I recompiled and installed mod_python to python 2.5. When
I run my application, it's coming back with:

>>>
Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mod_python/importer.py", line
1537, in HandlerDispatch
default=default_handler, arg=req, silent=hlist.silent)

  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mod_python/importer.py", line
1202, in _process_target
module = import_module(module_name, path=path)

  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mod_python/importer.py", line
304, in import_module
return __import__(module_name, {}, {}, ['*'])

ImportError: No module named django.core.handlers.modpython
>>>

How do I configure Apache2 or mod_python to use Python 2.5?

TIA,
Rolly

Adjust your paths so the place where you installed your new Python 2.5
is ahead of your old Python's path.

Greg,

Thank you for the quick reply. I got the following while checking the
path:

I am a linux and python newbie so I appreciate this hand-holding for
now. I am a bit confused. The sys.path is showing no signs of
python2.4, the $PATH is fist listing /usr/local/bin where python2.5 is
located; but whereis is definitely showing python2.4 first. Where
should I go to adjust this?

Thanks,

Seems like the correct Python is in your path already.

echo $PATH is probably what you want.

> [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ whereis python

whereis just consults the locate database.  Try `which python`
instead, it searches your PATH.

If you want to rely on whereis you have to make sure your locate
database is up to date.  Run `updatedb` when in doubt.

Some other things to check:

Did you restart Apache?

Are you compiling a new Python from source?  If so did you add the
Python libs path to your ld.so.config?  Did you run ldconfig?

Is apache running as the same user as you, and if not, is it locating
your 2.5 on the path?

Re: Upgrade from Python 2.4 to 2.5

2007-05-07 Thread RollyF 

Greg,

Thank you again. This is very informative.

"which python" returns

/usr/local/bin/python

which is the location of python2.5

I restarted Apache several times using "/etc/init.d/httpd restart",
including a hard reboot of the server.

I originally recompiled Python from source using:
  ./configure
  make
  make install

I run "/sbin/ldconfig -v" and restarted Apache again. Still showing
the same python2.4 exception when I run the application.
I am not sure what to put in ld.so.config. I saw a couple of
references to python2.4 libs while in verbose mode of running
ldconfig.

Thanks,
rolly

You wanna put the libs path of your new python install in there,
something like /usr/local/python2.5/lib or whatever yours is exactly.
After that run ldconfig so your system knows to look there for shared
libraries from now on.

The packages that Fedora provide will use the system's python 2.4 
libraries and modules. To change this, you will need to rebuild 
mod_python against your python2.5 installation. There are many ways to go 
about this, someone more familiar with Fedora might be able to help you 
with the specifics, but broadly:

 1. Remove the existing package of mod_python that is installed
 2. Grab the mod_python sources from 
 3. Follow the installation instructions at . Make sure you tell mod_python's 
configure script where to find your local installation of python2.5 by 
using an option like: --with-python=/usr/local/bin/python.
