PHP configuration issue with Apache2

Hi, I currently have an Apache 2.2 server running in Linux, and I have phpBB (forum software) at directory /srv/http/forum (my document root is /srv/http). Doing this, the forum works fine. Now, when I enable mod_python in apache and set the document root (/srv/http) to use the mod_python handler, my forum breaks. Sometimes the page will just show an error, or sometimes it will just show the PHP source code of the forum software (phpBB). In my document root (/srv/http), I have the following .htaccess file: #---------------------------------------------------------- Options All -Indexes DirectoryIndex index.py AddHandler mod_python .py PythonHandler mod_python.publisher PythonDebug on AddType text/html;qs=1.0 .py AddType text/html;qs=0.9 .html AddType text/plain;qs=0.8 .txt <Files ~ "\.(gif|html|jpg|png|swf)$"> SetHandler default-handler </Files> #---------------------------------------------------------- This sets up mod_python and it works just great. Now, when I visit my forum (at /srv/http/forum), it is inheriting the properties specified in the root .htaccess, and somehow interfering with PHP handling the .php script files. How can I set up the /srv/http/forum/.htaccess file to make my forum work? Help is appreciated. Thank you.
