Python, FastCGI and FreeBSD

[henk_p at my-deja.com]

Hi,

I am experiencing this strange problem with a Python script running as a
fastCGI application under FreeBSD 3.2.
For some reason when the fastcgi process manager in Apache starts the
script, it (or the Python interpreter) immediately crashes. It does not
matter what the script contains, it always crashes upon initialization.
('Uncaught signal 11, Segmentation Fault' as it says in the apache error
log)

The strange thing is that the same script runs perfectly OK on a Redhat
linux box (5.2).

Are there any known bugs that could cause Python interpreter to crash on
initialization?, maybe due to the user privilege level it is running, or
the layout of the python libs on the platform (FreeBSD3.2).

The script runs perfectly fine when invoked from a shell. It just seems
like the python interpreter does not like to be forked by the FastCGI
process manager...

Well anyway, thanx in advance,


Henk.
