Ubuntu defines apache2-worker when installing mod-wsgi, but don't uninstall when you change to prefork.
So you can use the setup_web2py.sh script in ubuntu and after install php. 2010/1/22 Graham Dumpleton <graham.dumple...@gmail.com> > Apache/mod_wsgi can work with prefork, although daemon mode should be > used to avoid problems due to PHP requirement of prefork causing > adverse performance issues of Python web application.
