Hi there,

I assume this has been asked before quite often, but after having digged
for some time in the archives I still have no clue how to configure Apache
to run an app with mod_python and quixote.

Actually, I do know how I _could_ make it, but I don't like the way it's
done :)
I've read[1] and must admit that I don't like this solution. What I need
as a
setup that reads something like [2]. Obviously the stuff in [2] doesn't
work.
If I understood the idea behind quixote correctly, I need a driver script
for an app to be run. The code in quixote/demo/__init__.py was the point
I started from, with no success though: I created
/var/www/quixoteBasedApp/__init__.py and added a simple _q_index
just for testing purposes:

def _q_index(request):
     return "My first QUIXOTE app\n."

Now if I access http://foo.bar.com, I get a directory listing (the one
from apache)
instead of the message above.

Any thoughts?

TIA,
Igor
