[A]

Hello,
I have a webhosting account with one company.
I can use python from command line through Telnet(SSH) but can not run successfully
Python program from a browser.(They use Apache web server.)
What must I do?
What permission must I set on directory and the python file?
Here is a simple program I would like to run
########
#!/usr/bin/python
print "Content-Type: text/html" print
print"AAA"
########
Thanks for help

It is actually 'Options' not 'Option'

Try:
echo 'Options +ExecCGI' >.htaccess
in the console and see.

I would ask if they have mod_python setup, and if not, I would request
it. This keeps python loaded into memory so there is much less load
put on the server than having to load python every time your page got
a hit.
