Hi I'm traying tu run web2py in www.powweb.com hosting they say the
can run python 2.5 and I found a forum message that says web2py should
run. (http://forum.powweb.com/showthread.php?t=85385)
I tryied tu set it up with the "Shared Hosting with mod_python"
instruction from chater 11 en the web2py book but it did not work. I
think to be be doing some thing wrong since i haven set up any ip
adress or admin password... ¿Have any one here manage to install
web2py powweb? or can help me doing it?

mod_python is deprecated. Do they have mod_wsgi?

Sry but I don't know how to check if they have mod_wsgi. They just say that can run pyhton 2.5 scrip and that they should better be put into a folder named cgi-bin. this the info they give about python:

How Python works at PowWeb

PowWeb's PowerPack allows you to write scripts using Python. To ensure that your Python scripts work smoothly, please refer to the following information before you get started:
  • Path to your Web directory:/home/users/web/b1821/pow.techwaresolutionscom/htdocs
    This is important, as most of your scripts will need to specify this location. For example, this is required if uploading files was a function that you'd like your Python script to do.

  • Path to Python: /usr/bin/python
    Note that PowWeb's CGI servers automatically direct your scripts to this path. You do not need to change the "#!" line at the top of your scripts.

  • Version of Python: 2.5
    This is the version of Python that PowWeb runs on its servers. Newer versions may be installed as they become available.

  • Required filename extensions: .py
    These are the extensions that your Python files must have or they will not work. For example, they would be yourscript.py

  • Recommended path: http://yourcompanyname.com/cgi-bin/yourscript.py 
    If you do not have a domain name, point to: http://yourusername.powweb.com/cgi-bin/yourscript.py.
    Note: PowWeb recommends that you use your cgi-bin as the default folder for all your cgi scripts. We cannot guarantee that they will work outside of this folder.
