Initialise sys.argv to a dummy value.
-------------------------------------

Key: MODPYTHON-88
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-88
Project: mod_python
Type: Improvement
Components: core
Versions: 3.3
Reporter: Graham Dumpleton
Priority: Minor


As mod_python isn't executed as part of a traditional command line program but is embedded into Apache, there is no actual sys.argv array for command line parameters. This though causes problems when certain third party modules are used which want for som
e reason to query sys.argv, eg. numarray:

and pychart:

http://www.modpython.org/pipermail/...ber/019360.html

Simple way of avoiding this would be if apache.init() method executed for each interpreter being created set sys.argv.

sys.argv = ['mod_python']
