Hello World

If the next script is saved as hello.py in the /dir/path directory under the document root then we can execute it with:

http://my_site.tld/dir/path/hello.py or
http://my_site.tld/dir/path/hello

def index():
   s = """\
<html>
<body>
<h2>Hello World!</h2>
</body>
</html>
"""
   return s

The document root is the default directory where Apache looks for the requested files. Find out what it is looking for the DocumentRoot directive in the httpd.conf file.

The /dir/path is the path to the directory configured to be handled by the Publisher.
