Around your code with a try/except clause and catch the
traceback in the except clause. You can get the traceback
by using the traceback module. Logging can be achieved by
writing the traceback to a file.

I not sure if this is really neccessary because the traceback
of Python CGI scripts should be logged to the script or
error logfile of Apache.

Happy Easter,
