how to set up python web dev environment

Question

the set the i have so far is: windows 7 64bit Apache 2.2.14/mysql/php 5.3.1

i installed python 2.7. not configured.

i tried installing mod_python but it kept telling python 2.5 is required

I'd highly recommend using mod_wsgi instead of mod_python. The latter is deprecated and probably will be unmaintained before long; WSGI is the standard way to run a Python script in a web server. — David Z

WSGI, and a linux box too. The closer you are to the production environment, the less surprises you will have when deploying. — Luper Rouch

@Luper: His production environment might not be Linux. WAMP (Windows, Apache, MySQL, Perl/Python/PHP/etc.) isn't as common as LAMP, but it's far from unheard of. — Nicholas Knight

Dump mod_python. It's dead, Jim.
