python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000 give someone your ip on port 8000 :) Jeff Anderson escribió: > Keith wrote: >> Is there a way to >> connect with the development server remotely > Absolutely! > By default the development server --only-- runs on localhost.

Re: How do I connect to development server with my browser?
> If I run the dev server briefly, that won't cause any problems, will it? It all depends on your hosting company. When in doubt, ask. It's not that you are port-scanning their accounting machine, but you are creating a "long running process" (i.e. it doesn't just generate a page and exit) that is listening on port . Many of them don't like that. My situation was completely avoidable because (Doh!) I have a Linux server running in the garage. I just happened to be logged in to 1and1.com and I wasn't thinking. Bam! Locked out for 24 hours. I like the suggestion of running this locally on your desktop/laptop, at least until you are doing something more serious than the tutorial. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: How do I connect to development server with my browser?
Wow! Thanks for all the replies. I appreciate all the help. I'll check out the tutorial, and hope all goes well with the new baby. The server is shared. My son doesn't have any problem with me working on it, but I don't want to cause any problems for him. If I run the dev server briefly, that won't cause any problems, will it? I've downloaded the portable django software. Thanks again, all. Keith --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: How do I connect to development server with my browser?
Keith: If you want to take your first steps learning Django without installing it, I work on a tutorial in my spare time called Instant Django: http://www.instantdjango.com It includes a download that contains a portable Django environment that runs under Windows, no installation required, and uses the Django development server and sqlite. It will even from from a USB thumb drive. There is also a simple tutorial, which takes you through the steps in creating a very rudimentary Django project. Of course, part of learning Django is learning how to install and deploy it, but in my opinion installation shouldn't be the first thing you need learn. It needs to be updated, but it should work for your purposes. As soon as I can find the time I will finish the second chapter of the tutorial, but I am now working between 60 and 80 hours a week at my "day job", which has nothing to do with computers or programming, and my wife is pregnant and due in two weeks, so it may be a while before I get to it. Anyway, good luck learning Django! -cjlesh --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: How do I connect to development server with my browser?
> My son gave me some space to play in on an Apache server he rents. Is this a dedicated server or a shared hosting account? Dedicated? Carry on. Shared? Watch out! Many shared hosting providers frown on (or outright forbid) "long running processes." Without thinking about what I was doing, I started working through the Django tutorial on a 1and1.com account. The third time I tried to run the development server (It just wouldn't seem to work) I suddenly found myself locked out of my account (and all of my domains blocked for web and mail) for 24 hours. If you need your own play space for cheap, checkout http://www.webfaction.com/. $10/month with user-configurable Apache. Alternatively, get an old PC, slap on Ubuntu Linux (or the distro of your choice), and run a local server. This has the benefit of letting you pickup some LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, Python) skills while learning Django. Warning: There can be several steepish learning curves involved here, although most distros come with a default LAMP setup installed for you. If you are planning on selling your skills, this might be the right route to take. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/django-admin/#runserver-optional-port-number-or-ipaddr-port "Note that the default IP address, 127.0.0.1, is not accessible from other machines on your network. To make your development server viewable to other machines on the network, use its own IP address (e.g. 192.168.2.1) or 0.0.0.0."

Keith wrote: > Is there a way to > connect with the development server remotely Absolutely! By default the development server --only-- runs on localhost. If you want to make it accessible via another interface (like the internet) run it like this: python manage.py runserver xxx.xxx.xx.x:8000 where the xxx.xxx.xx.x is the external ip address.

How do I connect to development server with my browser?
Greetings: I am an absolute beginner at Python / Django / Web development. (Old school COBOL, VB desktop apps. developer trying to update my skills.) My son gave me some space to play in on an Apache server he rents. I set up Django, created my first project, and ran it in the development server. Then the Definitive Guide to Django says to bring up 127.0.0.1:8000 in my browser and I should see an "It worked" message. I can't connect to this and, I suspect, this it's because this is a local host address and I'm not local. Is there a way to connect with the development server remotely?
