[Spyce-users] Re: NameError: global name 'pool' is not defined

[<sp...@ma...>]

Hi Robert,

Are you running Apache in Worker mode or Prefork mode?  
If you're not sure, run this command:

$  httpd  -l

and check to see which setting you are using (you will see either "prefork.c" or "worker.c").  From my experiences, spyce doesn't behave itself well under Worker mode wrt sessions/pools (nor does php for that matter), so you'll want to switch to prefork mode.  

If you're already running prefork mode, then you can ignore the above.  I am using pool and session successfully w/ Apache 2 in Prefork mode using mod_python and have the following lines in my files:

[[.import name=pool]]
[[.import name=session]]

If I recall correctly, Redhat (and related) distros install Apache in Worker mode by default.

Regards,

Phil
