Can anyone help me to set up Python to run on Wampserver. From what I've read so far you would need to use a combination of Wampser, Python, mod_pyhton, and adjustment to the Apache http.conf file. I've tried it but i belive i am having conflict when it comes to versions. Does anyone know of a cobination of versions that can work so that i can do some local python development using my wampserver? Links to the download would be greatly appreciated.

My current config: Wampserver 2.0c => Apache Version : 2.2.8 , PHP Version : 5.2.6 , MySQL Version : 5.0.51b

Do not use mod_python; it does not do what most people think it does. Use mod_wsgi instead.
