It's actually the switch to mod_python that's going to benefit you the
most: but starting with CGI is a good first step.

Do you have the TileCache directory under
/var/www/cgi-bin/tilecache/TileCache/ ? It looks like it's not. If it

already exists:

import sys
sys.path.append(".")

And see if that fixes things.
