If you wish to run TiddlyWeb with Apache it is best mounted with the mod_wsgi module. To do so:

1. Install mod_wsgi for your apache server if it not already there. Instructions on how to do this are out of scope for TiddlyWeb. See http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/ for more information.
   
2. Get apache.py and put it in your instance directory. That file includes information in the comments on how to modify your apache configuration and your tiddlywebconfig.py.
   
   

Comparing to mod_python

• mod_wsgi is faster and lighter than mod_python
  
• mod_wsgi can run in its own daemon process that can run as a user you specify, which can avoid lots of file permission confusion
  
  

Common Problems

• Make sure any files paths you create or edit in the apache config are correct.
  
• Make sure you have set server_prefix and server_host correctly in tiddlywebconfig.py.
  
• If you wish to use the http_basic extractor with mod_wsgi you must configure     WSGIPassAuthorization On in your apache config where you have configured other WSGI settings.
  
  

TiddlySpace, TiddlyHoster and WikiData all run on mod wsgi setups.
