I'm learning web2py, have been having success with the new version of the book, and tried to get it working with apache today. Thanks for your efforts. I like it so far.

In the book in http://web2py.com/book/default/section/11/5 (Setup Apache and mod_wsgi on Windows), near the end of the page where the Virtual Host is specified:

(1) This line gives a "Regex could not be compiled" error:

<LocationMatch "^(/[ /static/.)"> [ I get past the error if I change: /[ / to //. ]

(2) What should be used for the following?

WSGIScriptAlias / "C:/web2py/wsgihandler.py"

There is no file in the release I have (Version 1.75.2) by that name. There is one in the mercurial repository which I cut-and-pasted and put into "C:/web2py/wsgihandler.py", but now I see in web2py-error.log:

[Wed Feb 24 14:56:47 2010] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] mod_wsgi (pid=188): Target WSGI script 'C:/web2py/wsgihandler.py' cannot be loaded as Python module.

I'm chasing down my problems with (2) above. It appears the windows installer does not include wsgihandler.py, but it is in the sources.

I've got to build mod_wsgi from sources because, for Windows, there are only Python 2.6 versions available. That was messing things up, too.

Was this fixed? The book file in question was thought for Unix not windows. Please look for help on the google mailing list ( http://groups.google.com/group/web2py ). I will close this issue since it is about the book, not the code.
