1. Start with the following script called hello.py containing this code
#! /usr/bin/python print "Content-type: text/html\n\n" print "<html>Hello world!</html>"
2. Create the file hello.py in /home/username/public_html/cgi-bin (replace username with your cpanel username)
3. Correct the permissions with the following commands:
chmod +x /home/username/public_html/cgi-bin/hello.py
At that point, the script should work using http://domain.com/cgi-bin/hello.py
4. If you would like the script to run outside the cgi-bin, place the following content into /home/username/public_html/.htaccess file:
Options +ExecCGI AddHandler cgi-script .py
