If you've got the Apache web server software working under OS X El Capitan, but want to use Python scripts with Apache, the following steps will allow you to run Python scripts from a cgi-bin directory.
First, ensure that the hash sign (#) is removed from the
LoadModule cgi_module libexec/apache2/mod_cgi.so
in
/etc/apache2/httpd.conf
. If you need to remove the hash/pound sign,
restart Apache after modifying the file, which you can do with
sudo apachectl restart
. You will also need to use the
sudo command
to edit the file, if you edit it with a text editor such as
GNU nano or
vi.
