Note that I haven’t done that in a while, and can’t remember if I got python support at the time, but: There are different ways to install a custom CloudFoundry, thanks to the automated script called “dev_setup” ( https://github.com/cloudfoundry/vcap/tree/master/dev_setup).

This is what is explained here ( https://github.com/cloudfoundry/vcap) and I suspect this is what you have been following, given your previous comments.

Now, here is the thing: There are different options related to what should be deployed (the “-c” command line switch) so you may want to have a look at https://github.com/cloudfoundry/vcap/tree/master/dev_setup/deployments. In particular, there is a “all” deployment model that brings in the whole kitchen sink, so you can try this and confirm that you get python support. Also, have a look at the custom_runtimes thing in samples, this may be of interest to you.

As stated above, I haven’t done this in a while, so I hope I’m on the right track here.
