Webware for Python

Hi Kevin,

I would take a look at the traceback, but the site is not responding.
Can you restart Webware?

Thanks,
Sean

Subject: [Webware-discuss] problems with psp pages...


Hello, 
I have a client who has some psp pages that they need to be able to run
on their Apache web server.  I searched around on the web, and came
across the Webware Webkit, and I believe this is the proper product that
I need to get these pages working.

Here's my configuration:
RedHat 7.3
Apache 1.3.27-2
Python 2.2.2

I have followed the install instructions, and I am able to access the
webkit thru the /cgi-bin/wkcgi location.  I can view the PSPTest pages
and it all seems to be working.

However, I need to configure the server so that I can run .psp pages
from anyplace on the server, similar to how .php pages work.  I found
the information in the docs about this, and have added the following
lines to my apache httpd.conf:

# attempting to get .psp files to run anywhere, using the webware
webkit..
<Location /WK>
        WKServer localhost 8086
        SetHandler webkit-handler
</Location>

AddHandler psp-handler .psp
Action py-serverpages /WK/
AddType py-serverpages .py


Now, when I try to run .psp pages, I get an error page with the
traceback window.  Since I have no knowledge of python, this is hard for
me to diagnose.

I'm not sure if there's a problem with the script or not, so I tried the
PSPTests.psp script to see if I could get that working in a different
directory.  I copied everything from the /var/www/Webware/PSP/Examples
directory into /var/www/html/PSPTest, but when I go to
PSPTest/PSPTests.psp, I am presented with an error page again.  It
doesn't seem like I have .psp pages working outside of the wkcgi
interface... but I'm lost as to why not.

Here's some links to the server pages... maybe someone with a little
more knowledge than myself can look at them quickly and find out where
I've gone wrong:

PSP Examples page:
http://pegasus.brophy.com/PSPTest/PSPTests.psp

and the page that started it all:
http://pegasus.brophy.com/gorey_folder/welcome.psp

I'm at a loss as to what to try next, so any help is _greatly_
appreciated.

Thanx!

Kevin

I would not automatically assume that the PSP pages your client wants to 
run were for Webware/WebKit. There are actually quite a few completely 
unrelated efforts out there to implement some kind of PSP style 
solution. This could be your problem.

I tried to go to your links to take a look, but can't get to them at all.
