How to import modules in cgi applications?

[Gillou]

1/ Look at your web server log file or error file to see the python
traceback
2/ Try this simple CGI script:

import cgi
cgi.test()

And look if you already got the PYTHONPATH environment variable in the CGI
process.
If not, look at your web server doc for setting/passing environment
variables to the CGI scripts
If U use Apache, take a look at this...

http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_env.html

You're 2 or 3 Apache directives away from the solution...
