Hi; I am trying to change the default version of python on my centos 5.7 box and leave the old installation. Frustrated by not finding any help online, I went ahead and installed Python 2.6 from the source. It appears to be my default, but when I fire up mod_wsgi, it complains that it can't import os. Please advise.

hard to tell without error message, but I guess that mod_wsgi is linked to your old python and wont work with another python. Maybe you have to recompile mod_wsgi too?
