Description

I'm trying to set up a root wiki with mod-python and unable to make it work.

Steps to reproduce

Web server config:

<VirtualHost *>
  ServerName wiki.xxx.org

  Alias /wiki/ "/usr/share/moin/htdocs/"
  Alias /favicon.ico "/var/moin/wiki/favicon.ico"
  Alias /icone.png "/var/moin/wiki/icone.png"

  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/(wiki)/
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /var/moin/wiki/moinmodpy.py$1

  <Directory "/var/moin/wiki/">
    AddHandler python-program .py
    PythonPath "['/var/moin/wiki'] + sys.path"
    PythonHandler moinmodpy
  </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

I get the following log from the Apache error.log file:

[Wed Nov 30 23:30:37 2005] [error] PythonHandler moinmodpy: Traceback (most recent call last):

Discussion

   1 23:57:24 < xorAxAx> J-PGuerard: can you modify line 1721 in request.py to raise Exception(repr(self.mpyreq.get_options()))?
   2 23:57:36 < xorAxAx> J-PGuerard: simply add it in the line before
   3 00:06:16 < J-PGuerard> moinmodpy: Exception: {'Location': '/'}
   4 00:06:55 < xorAxAx> now try "raise Exception(type(self.mpyreq.get_options()))"
   5 00:08:00 < J-PGuerard> Exception: <type 'mp_table'>
   6 00:08:47 < xorAxAx> ah :)
   7 00:08:58 < xorAxAx> so mp_table is somehow broken
   8 00:09:17 < xorAxAx> now remove the new raise line and edit the location = line like this:
   9 00:09:32 < xorAxAx> .... get_options()['Location']
  10 00:09:43 < xorAxAx> (this eliminates the get)
  11 00:11:07 < J-PGuerard> "data_underlay_dir" does not exists at "./underlay/", or has incorrect  ownership and permissions.
  12 00:12:36 < xorAxAx> very nice, so this fixed the bug

Plan

• Priority:
• Assigned to:

• Status: the mod_python code needs some active maintainer. I am not personally using mod_python (nor do I have a test setup), so I am not doing any change needing tests. Any change needs a test, except if a patch tested by multiple people is given that is based on current code. -- ThomasWaldmann 2006-04-10 21:12:06

• Status Update: fixed in 1.5 -- NickPhillips
