Re: Django + Godaddy

[Nanopino]

I just got off the phone with godaddy for the last time. I've canceled
my hosting with them as they are reluctant to install python-sqlite2.
Something as simple as database libraries that can be yum installed
and they wouldn't budge. They really wanted me to switch to VPS with
them. It took me 2 weeks to get django up and running and when i tried
to build something with it is when i found out i couldn't hook it up
to a database because pysqlite or the mysql libraries aren't
installed. Tried to install pysqlite from source in my local directory
just like I did with django, using --prefix but pysqlite needs gcc to
compile some portions of the code and gcc is unavailable in their
jailed ssh. ARG, so angry!

Justin's correct save yourself the headache, unfortunately my head's
already throbbing.

Re: Django + Godaddy

[Nanopino]

i've actually have semi success in getting django to work on godaddy.
It displays the "Congratulations on your first Django-powered page."
You will have to be signed up for the linux shared hosting Deluxe or
higher plan in order for fastcgi to be enabled. I can show you how to
get it up and running but the only problem is that once it is up and
running you can't do anything with it because the pysqlite2 and python
bindings for mysql aren't installed making django useless. I'm trying
to see if godaddy tech support will "yum install python-sqlite2" but i
really doubt it. They keep trying to upsell me to a VPS. I've been at
them for 2 weeks now... :-/
