I didn't try any others seriously, no. My experience is with Apache and IIS, and I try to stay away from Windows. I should mention, given Dieter Maurer's comment, that Bottle is a (fairly thin) layer built over WSGI. I've built applications directly over WSGI as well; that's another way to go, it's quite straightforward. mod_python is no longer supported: http://blog.dscpl.com.au/2010/05/mod...fficially.html. |

Based on Dieter's comment I'm using Bottle as a framework, with gunicorn (behind nginx) as the webserver. Even Bottle is probably overkill for my use case, but my time is rather limited, so I'm happy to use an off the shelf solution. And I must say, configuring gunicorn and nginx contrasted pleasantly with my memories of struggling with httpd.conf  |
