    66These instructions are for Apache 2; if you are still using Apache 1.3, you may have some luck with [trac:wiki:TracModPython2.7 TracModPython2.7].

     8== A Word of Warning ==
     9
     10As of 16^th^ June 2010, the mod_python project is officially dead.  If you are considering using mod_python for a new installation, '''please don't'''!  There are known issues which will not be fixed and there are now better alternatives.  Check out the main TracInstall pages for your target version for more information.

    812== Simple configuration ==
    913
     
    2125(Still on Debian) after you have installed mod_python, you must enable the modules in apache2 (equivalent of the above Load Module directive):
    2226{{{
    23 a2enmod mod_python
     27a2enmod python
    2428}}}
    2529On Fedora use, using yum:
     
    3438   PythonInterpreter main_interpreter
    3539   PythonHandler mod_python.testhandler
     40   Order allow,deny
     41   Allow from all
    3642</Location>
    3743}}}
     
    4652   PythonOption TracEnv /var/trac/myproject
    4753   PythonOption TracUriRoot /projects/myproject
     54   Order allow,deny
     55   Allow from all
    4856</Location>
    4957}}}
     
    281289Using <Location /> together with `SetHandler` resulted in having everything handled by mod_python, which leads to not being able download any CSS or images/icons. I used <Location /trac> `SetHandler None` </Location> to circumvent the problem, though I do not know if this is the most elegant solution.

     291=== Problem with zipped egg ===
     292
     293It's possible that your version of mod_python will not import modules from zipped eggs. If you encounter an `ImportError: No module named trac` in your Apache logs but you think everything is where it should be, this might be your problem. Look in your site-packages directory; if the Trac module appears as a ''file'' rather than a ''directory'', then this might be your problem. To rectify, try installing Trac using the `--always-unzip` option, like this:
     294
     295{{{
     296easy_install --always-unzip Trac-0.12b1.zip
     297}}}
     298
    283299=== Using .htaccess ===
    284300
     
    367383
    368384Note: For the above configuration to have any effect it must be put after the configuration of your project root location, i.e. {{{<Location /myproject />}}}.
     385
     386Also, setting `PythonOptimize On` seems to mess up the page headers and footers, in addition to hiding the documentation for macros and plugins (see #Trac8956). Considering how little effect the option has, it is probably a good idea to leave it `Off`.

    370388=== HTTPS issues ===
