Hello!
I need an advice from guru who understands shared libraries issues.
I have Python 1.5.1, Apache 1.3.4 and PyApache 4.14.
Initially I ran all this on Sun, Solaris 2.5.1. All worked pretty good.
Then I tried to move things to linux, but I experienced many troubles.
First time I started apache with pyapache, I did few simple things -
this worked, - and then ran
import cgi
cgi.test()
This failed. I looked into apache's error_log and found an error message
from PyApache error handler: unhandled exception - _Py_SOMETHING not found
(I do not remember exact symbol, but I expected this symbol to be exported
from libpython.a, linked with pyapache).
I looked into pyapache mailing list and found I am not alone:
http://www.egroups.com/group/pyapache-devel/132.html
His have got almost the same configuration (and he, like me, runs
postgres).
I started experiment and removed mod_auth_pgsql from apache. PyApache
worked! This was on Debian 2.1; I tried to move recompile pyapache on
RedHat 5.1. Compiled, but refused to work. Apache's error_log shows:
segmentation fault.
Then I recompiled apache on debian adding mod_auth_pgsql back. PyApache
worked for some time, but then started to do the same segmentation fault.
This time I've got yet another linux - RH 5.2. I am not a sysadmin
there, so instructed a sysadmin how to compile python and pyapache.
PyApache worked on that computer... until I looked into error_log. I found
segmentation faults there. But all my scripts worked, so I think
segmentation fault occurred after a script.
For some reasons apache on the computer was recompiled few times - added
mod_perl, then mod_auth_mysql. PyApache always worked; sometimes there are
segmentation faults, sometimes there are not.
Recently I upgraded my sun and 2 linux systems to python 1.5.2 and
apache 1.3.6. Nothing changed - pyapache worked on sun without minor
trouble, but on Linux _Py_NoneStruct not found or segmentation fault.
"_Py_NoneStruct not found" usually appeared when I am trying to import time
or socket (via urllib or cgi) - python tried to load timemodule.so or
socketmodule.so - and failed. :(
Anyone understand what is going on? Any advice how to fix this?
Oleg.

Programmers don't die, they just GOSUB without RETURN.
