mercurial is not known from apache2

[soloturn]

as i'm not sure if apache2 or python is responsible for this, excuse
if i try to ask here too.

our problem is that mercurial does not work from apache, but from
python command-line it does. what could be a reason for this
behaviour?

-----------------------------------------------
from the command line it works:
-----------------------------------------------
www-data@myserver ~
$ which python
/usr/local/bin/python
www-data@myserver ~
$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib:/opt/sfw/lib
www-data@myserver ~
$ python
Python 2.5 (r25:51908, Feb 22 2007, 11:38:23)
[GCC 3.4.2] on sunos5
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.www-data@myserver ~

-----------------------------------------------
from apache-2.2.4 it does not work:
-----------------------------------------------

environment, output via:
def print_env():
print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n";
for name, value in os.environ.items():
print "%s\t= %s <br/>" % (name, value)
print sys.path

-----------------------------------------------
try to manipulate LD_LIBRARY_PATH
-----------------------------------------------
if we try to set the ld_library_path in the hgwebdir.cgi via:
os.environ["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"] = "/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/lib:/opt/
sfw/lib"
the error mentioned above happens.
if we enter LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the apache2 envvars file, it seems not
to take it (it is not shown in the environment printet above). so
therefor the question if there is anything strange with apache-2.2.4.
just to check i entered a echo statement in apachectl to see if it
finds it and print the path
# apachectl restart
load envvars
/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/lib:/opt/sfw/lib

# nm /usr/local/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload/zlib.so | grep inflate

-----------------------------------------------
q&na (questions and no answers ..)
-----------------------------------------------
why it does work from the commandline, and not from apache-2.2.4 cgi?
seems to be same ld_library_path, same path, same python, same
mercurial.

Apache having a different "PYTHONPATH" from what your personal
account runs with?
