I'm helping some friends improve a portal website they have created using PHP, but which would be ideal for Django, in the sense that a lot of the work they've already done, and would like to do as they improve the site, would be easy to do in Django. They have a hosting contract with Intermedia (http://www.intermedia.net/) and would very much like to keep it. I've gotten ssh access to their server and went poking around a bit, and, although python is available on the server (version 2.5.2), there doesn't seem to be any support for WSGI, mod_python, FastCGI, or the other deployment options listed in the documentation (at least I didn't see them in /etc/apache2/mods-available/), and it doesn't look like they support other frameworks (Rails, Drupal, Zope) either.
My question: I've always set up my own servers and don't have any experience with web hosting; is there a minimal sort of request that I could make to Intermedia that, if granted, would make it possible for me (and presumably others) to deploy a Django site using their service, or should I just try to convince my friends to find a different hosting service? It seems like there would be many to choose from: http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/DjangoFriendlyWebHosts Thanks, --Todd -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
