Python 2.7 with mod_wsgi is now installed on your cPanel server.<\/p>\n
You can create a test.wsgi file to test Python scripts<\/p>\n

This is a step by step tutorial which will help you install Python 2.7 with mod_wsgi onto CentOS 5.6 and cPanel. Prerequisites: CentOS 5.6 32 or 64 bit with root access cPanel Note: we are not using cPanel custom modules guide because it only works with built-in Python 2.4.
