I have a python script (web service with query postgresql/postgis). Up to now, i did several test on my local laptop station (windows).

Now i want to execute this python script on our remote server (Web server : Apache;OS : Linux).

How to write a CGI template please? Can someone help me?

While you can run Python as a CGI, the recommended pattern is to use WSGI. I suggest starting here:

Do I really need a web framework?

I want to set up a very simple website, and I need to know if it is necessary to use a web framework (e.g. Django) to do basic interactive operations such as receiving input from the user, looking up a database and returning some data to the user.

I know that this is exactly the purpose of web frameworks, and that they work fine. However, I read somewhere that for small projects such operations can be managed without a web framework, just by using Python with mod_python or with the CGI module. Is this correct?

Any suggestions?
