Steps: see http://www.webwareforpython.org/WebKit/Docs/InstallGuide.html#id8

1. Install Apache 2. The built in package installer will install the cgi-bin directory under usr/lib.
2. Download and install Webware 1.0
3. In ../Webware/WebKit/Adapters/wkcgi run make (I use /home/Webware/Webkit/...)
4. copy wkcgi to usr/lib/cgi-bin/wkcgi.cgi
5. copy WebKit.cfg to usr/lib/cgi-bin directory
6. Install webit from webkit directory $python install.py
7. start apache
8. start WebKit app server by invoking WebKit/AppServer
9. test by opening http://127.0.0.1/
10. test by opening http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/wkcgi.cgi

You can stop the server by typing ^Z at the terminal.
