Which Webware version are you using? Webware normally connects to Apache =

via mod_webkit; only the last beta supports mod_wsgi.

------------------------------------------

I have been running Webware 1.1b1 with the mod_wsgi adapter since May, 2010=
 on Ubuntu 10.04 and Ubuntu 11.04.=A0 The Python version is 2.7.1 on Webfac=
tion.=A0 =


I will start over with a clean installation of Webware and give the mod_web=
kit adapter a try if the problems with wsgi continue.

Chuck and Christof, thanks for your thoughts.
