Subject: CherryPy on a shared host with mod_fcgi?

Hello

I'm looking for a simple framework to write Python web apps on a shared
Apache server with mod_fcgi.

So far, I failed finding a solution that will connect mod_fcgi to a basic
"hello, world" example.

For instance, I could only untar Flup but not make it available anywhere in
the user's htdocs directory.

Can CherryPy install and run in a restricted environment?

Thank you.

Certainly.  I always deploy and run cherrpy under a virtualenv in an
unprivileged user home directory.

The exact details of how to get it actually serving documents correctly
will depend on your host, but I'll admit I stopped using shared host
providers a few years ago when VPSs became so cheap.  Getting things
working right on a shared host can be a pain, and if your app is at all
complicated things can break in subtle ways when your provider silently
upgrades or makes changes on the host machine.  Not worth the hassle
unless you have no alternative.

Cheers,
Anders.

Thanks for the tip. I'll read up on virtualenv.
