So what did you change? :-)

This line implies that you want your document root to be a CGI
directory. Do you?

If so, you should have;

ScriptAlias / /home/exarch/www

rather than:

> ScriptAlias /www_exarch.py /home/exarch/www/www_exarch.py

Which is odd - why do you have ScriptAlias pointing to a file? Normally,
it is used to define a directory which contains several CGI programs.

Try sorting out the config and repost if you still have problems - the
behaviour may be clearer tehn.
