Re: http links without using URLs.py
Eggs seems to be something related to python packages, not sure exactly what they are used for. I needed the PYTHON_EGG_CACHE because my web server could not write to the default egg cache directory and so I had it use a temp place. Perhaps somebody else can better explain eggs.

Re: http links without using URLs.py
Hello Adam, Thanks! I have already set up several sections for the django site, so I must not have the syntax quite right for apache to ignore the static links. I will work on it. One last question? What are eggs? SetEnv PYTHON_EGG_CACHE /tmp/.python-eggs Thanks, Ana On Jan 27, 9:23 am, Adam Stein wrote: > I ONLY use it for development with the Django server.

This would be similar to telling Apache not to send media files through mod_python, as discussed here: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/deployment/modpython/#id1 Maybe something like: SetHandler None Then put all your static html files in that directory.

Re: http links without using URLs.py
I ONLY use it for development with the Django server. I only set up to serve static pages when DEBUG = True (as they show toward the bottom of the page). No need to change links on the production server (apache + mod_python) because the URLs are a different location than what I have set up for mod_python. You set up mod_python using if you are using Apache. This tells apache that ONLY what matches the specified location will use mod_python. An example: SetHandler python-program PythonHandler django.core.handlers.modpython PythonInterpreter my_arbitrary_unique_name_here PythonPath "['/my/django/code'] + sys.path" SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE WebSite.settings SetEnv PYTHON_EGG_CACHE /tmp/.python-eggs PythonDebug On With this setup, only those URLs that have /my_django_site/ will go to Django (via mod_python). Any other URLs will get serviced by Apache as normal. It is quite discouraged to have Django serve static pages on a production server since it's not meant for that, so it's slow and inefficient.

Re: http links without using URLs.py
Hello, The tutorial suggests not serving the static pages with this method on a permanent basis. Are you using this method for your production server? I'm using windows/apache/modpython and I've tried using the IP address and still run into django url requests. Do you know of a way to get apache to override django?

http links without using URLs.py
Hello, I'm converting PHP pages to Django. I'm using base.html for my formatting. I've included the left-side bar in the base.html, which includes links that do not require using a database, such as the "contact us" page. Since I'm using localhost for testing my link looks something like this: http://127.0.0.1/contactus.html/"; >Contact Us Since the left-side bar is in base.html when the link is selected django requires that I place the link in the URL.py and include it in View.py. I have many links like this and would prefer that the links go directly to the page ignoring the django requests. Is there a simple work around for this, that will allow me to continue to use the convenience of the base.html inheritance?
