[python-win32] Hello World Problem :: Apache/2.0.48 (Win32) mod_python/3.0.4 Python/2.3

[python-forums at claytonbrown.net]

Hi I am trying to teach myself a bit of mod_python + apache2.0 as I've
not worked with either as yet
However the 'hello world' is not exactly what I was hoping for
In the example:
http://www.modpython.org/live/current/doc-html/inst-testing.html

Can anyone point me in the right direction, as far as I can see it all
looks good, apache starts without any errors was config and install is
all OK, the "Apache/2.0.48 (Win32) mod_python/3.0.4 Python/2.3 Server at
localhost Port 8080" footer kinda implies everything is groovy, however
it's not really doing the hello world part...

Could it be absolute paths need to be specified && perhps in local OS
form in the <Directory c:\folder\folder\folder> ??
Therefore the request is not being handed to mod_python as not a
directory configured for this behaviour?

Further detail:

httpd.conf:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------
Added:
LoadModule python_module modules/mod_python.so

Changed:
#<Directory />
#    Options FollowSymLinks
#    AllowOverride None
#</Directory>

To:
#CB :: Test MOD-ython-Directive 
<Directory /htdocs/test> 
  AddHandler python-program .py
  PythonHandler mptest 
  PythonDebug On 
</Directory>


Mptest.py
----------------
from mod_python import apache

def handler(req):
    req.write("Hello World!")
    return apache.OK


OUTPUT: (http://localhost:8080/test/)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
