You need to set your server up to actually process python files. Doing so varies widely depending upon OS, server software and versions. You might want to Google for it or ask around on a forum dedicated to server configuration.
Wow! I've been a CGI programmer for 17 years and using python for CGI for 10 of that. Most certainly my server - I.E. apache, running on port 80 *is* configured to process python.
However the server in question in this case is drupal itself, running on port 8080.
Therefore, the question should be : How can I configure drupal to process python files?
thanks
Drupal is NOT a server, but a bunch of PHP scripts executed by your web server (possibly apache). It appears that you have configured your web server to listen on port 8080 and serve this port from a directory you have loaded Drupal into. THAT instance of the web server needs to be configured to run the CGI programs you want.
