[Moin-user] Installation problem

Hi,

I tried to install MoinMoin 1.0 on a RedHat 7.3 Linux system. All the
installation instructions were followed carefully (I successfully
installed MoinMoin on SuSE 8.0 systems).

However, I can not get it to work when I try to access the front page. I
get server error 500 and the following error message from Apache:

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/local/share/moin/genwiki/moin.cgi", line 2, in ?
    from MoinMoin import cgimain
ImportError: No module named MoinMoin
[Sun Aug 11 23:57:37 2002] [error] [client 217.3.224.152] Premature end
of script headers: /usr/local/share/moin/genwiki/moin.cgi

Interestingly, when I start python from the command line on this machine
(as user root) I can import the MoinMoin module and even get html output
(as text, of course...):

[root at kiwi genwiki]# python

>>> import MoinMoin
>>> from MoinMoin import cgimain
>>> cgimain.run()
<html><head>

<meta name="KEYWORDS" content="Front, Page">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/wiki/css/moinmoin.css">
<link rel="Start" href="FrontPage">

Any idea what I could do to solve the problem? Maybe I am missing
something obvious here...
