hi..

i am also a php/mysql user, and i have till date used PHP only in this regard. Now, i want to learn and use Python/Perl with WAMP.

1. Is this possible?
2. If so, what additional softwares would i need to install to run Python/Perl (i already have WAMP server installed and working)
3. Where can i get these additional softwares from?

any help will be highly appreciated...

thx...

I use WAMP to develop my PHP/MySQL applications locally before moving them to a production server. I want to start teaching myself Python and wish to add Python to my installation. I have downloaded and installed Python 2.5 and also installed mod_python. Unfortunately getting Apache to recognize that Python is installed and run Python web pages isn't working. I either get a Python error or the contents of the Python file display on the screen.

Has anyone had any luck getting Python to work with WAMP specifically? If not any experience getting it to work with Apache on Windows would be appreciated.

Here is the error message I get:



Here is the code in index.py

Python Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)

from mod_python import apache
 
def handler(req):
 
    req.content_type = "text/plain"
    req.write("Hello World!")
 
    return apache.OK

from mod_python import apache def handler(req): req.content_type = "text/plain" req.write("Hello World!") return apache.OK
