I see you asked another question about the best django host, and got a
lot of replies to that one. Not so many here.

If dreamhost doesn't support django and you don't have unix skills,
try webfaction. I'm not sure you understood this before: you will not
have to manually install django on webfaction. You will select the
django setup you want from a dropdown menu. And it will no doubt be a
lot easier for others to help you out, both here and on the webfaction
forums.

Just friendly advice, of course. If anyone has experience with (or
represents) any host that has an even easier setup than webfaction,
hopefully they will come forward :).

At the bash command line.

Dreamhost runs Debian GNU/Linux, which offers a bash shell as standard. In
order to access a Dreamhost bash shell account from a Windows PC, you first
need to make sure your Dreamhost user account has shell access (you can set
this up in the Dreamhost Panel - look under "Users"). Then you need an SSH
("Secure SHell") client for your Windows PC, to let you access the bash
shell on the Dreamhost server (much as you need an FTP client in order to
FTP files to a remote server). The standard SSH client for windows is called
PuTTY and can be downloaded from
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html

Use PuTTY to log into Dreamhost using your Dreamhost user account details,
and you should find yourself at the bash command line, within your user's
home directory. You can then run the commands above.

Do you mean .bash_profile? If so, it should be present in your home
directory (see above). Use the command "ls -la" to list the files there
(leave out the quotes). If it's there, fine. If not, you may need to create
it yourself.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Installing django


Thanks for all the replies.

@sdc, yeah I plan to try webfaction. The only thing is I just quickly
checked out their demo video to setup django and itès 21 mins. I am
blown away to see how complicated just setting this up, and I am an
experienced windows programmer. Just expected a lot less steps.

Have you checked out www.djangohosting.ch? They claim their django is
one click solution. I wonder how that one compares both for features
and the ease of installations.

@Sam, thanks for the detailed reply. I will try those out, just worry
that there will be more steps or undocumented stuff to write.



Thanks again.

I meant for webfaction - I use webfaction, but do not use their django set up 
method. I set it up like I would set up django on my own box - using the 
latest svn trunk and configuring apache. It certainly doesn't take 21 minutes.

just follow the django install docs for apache/mod_python. There is an apache

the key thing is to set it up on your own home box - once you know how to do 
that, you are never dependent on any 'third-party' deployment and you will be 
all set to move to a VPS which is the next step up the food chain.

With the attitude you are displaying, ie., not wanting to watch a 20
minute video even though you have probably spent almost as much time
as that here complaining about the length of the video, and also
possibly not even wanting to spend the time to properly research
yourself what documentation exists which may answer your questions,
I'd suggest people aren't going to want to help you.

If you want people to help you when you actually get to coding your
Django application, you have to show that you are yourself making an
effort to actually work things out for yourself first. There is lots
of documentation out there which people have spent a lot of time on
exactly so you can be self sufficient and not need to be spoon fed by
others.

As to your specific question about source code reloading, it actually
depends on how you are hosting your Django application. If you are
using Apache/mod_wsgi then read:

  http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/ReloadingSourceCode

As much as you seem to want to avoid the details about how your
application may be hosted, reality is that how Python works and the
quality of Python web hosting available out there, means you can't
avoid knowing about it completely.

Sorry if this seems harsh, but we aren't ticket monkeys manning a help
desk. ;-)

+1, I say use VPS and learn unix.  However, if we are talking
webfaction you will have to go the web dashboard and click things.
(yuck)

and then you will have some sort of virtual environment that is unlike
a VPS or your home machine and doesn't really jive with the django
docs that are geared towards having control of your machine.

The instructions on the site are incorrect. You only use django-admin.py to

You *can* use django-admin.py as long as you make sure
DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE is defined in your environment to poing to your
settings module (e.g., "some_project.settings") -- which is exactly

Re: Installing django

2010-04-15 Thread backdoc

manage.py is not in your path.  If it's not in your path, you have to give
the full path with the command, like /path/to/my/executable.  However, if
you are in the same directory as the executable, your full path becomes
"./executable".  So, the bottom line is, cd to the location of manage.py and
execute it with "./manage.py".  You could also do "python manage.py".
 Either will work.

Re: installing django

2011-05-24 Thread Stuart MacKay

Without any more information on what problems you are experiencing it is 
very dificult to know where to start. I would recommend reading the 
First Steps section of the Django Documentation, 
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.3/


That will help in two ways, first it is a good guide for installing 
Django and second it will give everybody on this list who can help you 
with a good reference point for the steps you carried out. So when you 
say "I am having trouble with X" then it will be a lot easier to 
identify what the problem might be.

could be wrong; but i think the hard part is not because of the OS,
but because of IIS, which doesn't support any standard webapp
protocol.

if you use another webserver, things should be almost as easy as on
*nix, except for being somewhat more limited (no nginx, no uWSGI), but
i think at least Apache and FastCGI or mod_wsgi work as intended

Most likely, you installed a 3.x version of Python. Django does not
support Python versions 3 and up yet; for Django 1.3, you need a
Python 2.x installation, minimum Python 2.4 For Django 1.4, you need
minimum Python 2.5.

I've seen quite a few people now with this problem of corrupt Django

Perhaps someone could shed some light as to why this keeps happening.

Bob - why are you using version 1.0, and is there any particular reason you
are using it within a Windows environment?

Some (apparently popular) unzip utility on Windows (quietly) fails to

Re: Installing Django

2011-10-10 Thread Bob Peene

Kejun/Cal/Karen: Thank you very much for the info!!

I did rerun setup.py, but given this info, it probably didn't improve
anything.  I'll wipe the directory and start again.

Cal;  The 'Django 1.0' is the title of the book by Ayman Hourieh (not
my install version) - from reviews I've read this seems like a good
beginner tutorial but not so much a comprehensive reference.
I'm not a computer scientist nor programmer - I'm an engineering
project manager who wants a better web sol'n for my work.
If you have any other good books for beginners, I'd love to hear them.

After some research, Python/Django seemed like a good sol'n to bring
up a web app without having to become an expert.  I loaded Python 2.7
( I understand the best version to work with Django), then Django
1.3.1.
Windows - just happens to be what I use on my machine.  I could use
Mac OS X as I have a dual boot MacBook.

Will post a response with the results of my reinstall.

-Bob

Nice :)

Karen, do you think it's worth updating the Django windows documentation to
mention this?

Re: Installing Django

2017-01-30 Thread Jani Tiainen

Hi,

First you seem to be installing Django to Windows, it adds certain
complexity all together, it's not impossible though.

By given paths for some strange reason easy_install seems to thing that
you have installed your Python to "C:\program files (x86)\" directory
(not subdirectory there or anything, to root of that folder), that is
quite wrong, first it requires allways adminstrative access to install
anything there, and second it's not standard place, which would be
something like C:\PythonXX\ (to avoid permission problems).

First thing to you is now to figure out did you managed to mess up
Python installation by putting it to incorrect path and fix by removing
all components and then installing it to more proper location.

Depending on Python modules you want to use some may require compiling
which is not simple under Windows, so if you can use some Linux (or some
other unix variant) box or something like virtual machine setting up
environment is much easier.

Hello,

depending on what you mean with "build a website", you may be looking at the
wrong thing. Have you tried, for example, to build a web site at wordpress.com?
If yes, why is this not sufficient for you and you want to learn Django?

Re: Installing Django

2017-01-30 Thread Antonis Christofides

If you want to just make a web site, Django is the wrong thing for you. Django
is not for building web sites, it's for building web applications. You might
instead want to look at Mezzanine or Django-CMS or Wagtail (these are all
software for building web sites and they're based on Django), or, if being based
on Django is not a requirement, you can use Wordpress or Drupal. There are
really many more, there must be tens. I believe the most popular is Wordpress.

If you use any of these and install it on a server, you will only need to pay
for the domain and hosting (and spend considerable time setting it up).

If you use wordpress.com, they set it up for you, so you don't need to install
it yourself, and the cost is probably less than getting a virtual server to
install stuff yourself.

I don't want to discourage you from using Django if it's for you. I just don't
want you to get the impression that "Django is bad/complicated/painful" when you
just might be using it for the wrong purpose.

Regards,

Antonis

Re: Installing Django

I will consider your professional advise Antonis. However, what I would 
like to build is a (1st) freelancer website (upwork or like), I know that 
there are hundreds of these right now, but with a subtle twist and to offer 
both client and contractor something more, it may be feasible. (2nd) I fail 
to find Angel Investor so I have to cut cost everything to the rock bottom, 
I have a lot of time available to study and (plus motivation of course) and 
(3nd) I've done number of websites with blogspot (but plugins are paid 
monthly). So, I was thinking to do it myself the backbone with Django. 
Please tell me more what I should have know to bring this project to life. 

Thanks for your support,
Danny

I have no experience with Windows installations, but for other platforms
virtualenv and pip are a real help for getting repeatable, consistent
installations with a minimum of effort. I believe that is the case for
Windows boxes too.

If you use virtualenv, then you will have a complete python and django
installation in a location of your choosing, independent of the system
installation areas.

Re: Installing Django

2013-12-12 Thread Mike Dewhirst

Frederick

On Windows, the easiest (decision-less) way to install Django is using pip 
or easy-install. Get pip first if you haven't done so already. Django will 
then end up in exactly the right place and work faultlessly. I recommend it.

Virtualenv becomes important when you want to run multiple separate Python 
projects (such as Django projects) but it is a complication you can do 
without if you are just starting. For example, you might have different 
projects which absolutely require different versions of (say) Python while 
you are migrating a project from Python 2.7 to 3.x. Or you might be 
committed to maintaining multiple versions of the same software and they 
have different 3rd party app requirements between versions.

VirtualenvWrapper makes manipulating Virtualenv easier but it doesn't 
appear to be available for Windows.

So, Django will end up in the right place if you use pip. If you install 
Virtualenv and activate it *then* use pip to install Django, it will also 
end up in the right place but only for the activated (virtual) environment. 
This is how you can install different versions of software in different 
virtual environments.

The real answer to your question is "you shouldn't care".

Mike

Frederick,

Python installer on windows by default install in c:\python 2.x\

And all package like django and others will be under python folder install in 
libs\site-package\

Better look to use virtenv so you can create a different environment for 
different project.

Thanks
