[Moin-user] Fwd: help needed with python mod and apache2 root domain setup

[Peter Colton]

Hello all,

I been trying to setup a apache virtual domain with python mod and no cgi.
 For a root domain but up to now I have had no luck with this task. There is
 no problems with the domain using python mod and RedirectMatch and no cgi,
 all works perfect.

I would prefer the domain's urls is in the form of
 http://domain-name/some-page
Instead as it is now, in the form of
 http://domain-name/MyWiki/some-page

I have been using the apache mod rewrite and I tryed and tryed to get the url
to rewrite but nothing. The moinmoin howtos I been reading on python mod
apache and root domain seem to be using a cgi setup for the moin domain. I
have disable the cgi by not having in use the ScriptAlias  for moin.cgi
" ScriptAlias /MyWiki  /var/www/test-site/MyWiki/moin.cgi"
The cgi apache mod is all so disabled.
The apache  virtual domain config uses the rule
"PythonOption Location /MyWiki/"
So there no need for any cgi apache mod.

The apache mods I do have enabled are :
alias.load  authz_host.load  mime.load  mod_python.load  rewrite.load

Below I am posting my apache config files for my apache virtual host and a
copy of the " MoinMoin Diagnosis " out put for my setup info:

If some one can see where I am going wrong I would be gratefull for some
pointers.

	Regards
