Re: lighttpd & django, fcgi issues
thank you so much Ramiro, I've removed the .fcgi file. the problem turned out to be that the url.rewrite part of the configuration was in my original setup, but was producing a warning and was being ignored because I hadn't uncommented the mod_rewrite module in lighttpd.conf it's working now! is it normal for the fcgi start command to start 4 processes (as seen in htop)? in addition, it didn't start the processes with the correct pid that i specified in a file... thanks On Apr 7, 5:12 pm, "Ramiro Morales" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Sun, Apr 6, 2008 at 6:53 PM, skunkwerk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I'm having trouble running django with lighttpd (I'm not on a shared > > host).

As the documentation says, that file needs to be created if you are using FastCGI through Apache and you are using lighttpd. What you are missing (and that's also something that is documented) is the url.rewrite-once directive in your lighttpd configuration. The pipeline when using lighttpd + fastcgi + apache is: 1. HTTP Request arrives to lighttpd 2. lighttpd uses the:: "^(/.*)$" => "/mysite.fcgi$1" entry in the url.rewrite-once directive to route that request to the mysite.fcgi location. Note mysite.fcgi file itself doesn't need to exist it's just a ghost placeholder for the request routing. That's because of the:: fastcgi.server."/mysite.fcgi"."main"."check-local" => "disable" setting. (note also thaat you need to correct that "/mnt/project/mysite.fcgi" entry because it doesn't match "/mysite.fcgi$1". they should. 3. lighttpd's mod_fastcgi module gets the request and routes it via a TCP or Unix socket to thegastCGi server 4. The fastCGI server (in your case Django's manage.py runfastcgi + flup) gets the request Regards, -- Ramiro Morales --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.

Re: lighttpd & django, fcgi issues
thanks Douglas, i guess there's something wrong with the way lighttpd and django are connecting, because both of them are installed properly. Which means there has to be something wrong with one or more of: a) the start fcgi daemon command b) lighttpd.conf c) yourfilename.fcgi as far as a) goes, I've tried all three sample commands without any luck. I used netstat to see that indeed, the daemons seemed to be running. I tried specifying a PID file with a process id number in it (999) but it didn't seem to work as when I tried killing 999 it said there was nothing with that pid. But seeing as how the daemons seem to be running, I don't think this is the source of the problem. b) in lighttpd.conf i've specified the full path to my .fcgi file, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. lighttpd doesn't complain about anything, and there's nothing in my lighttpd error log. c) which leads me to believe the problem is in the .fcgi file. i have made it executable with chmod +x, and is located in /mnt, with my project in /mnt/project and therefore imports the paths /mnt and /mnt/ project and sets DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE to project.settings when I ran ./dispatch.fcgi from the command line, I got: WSGIServer: missing FastCGI param REQUEST_METHOD required by WSGI! WSGIServer: missing FastCGI param SERVER_NAME required by WSGI! WSGIServer: missing FastCGI param SERVER_PORT required by WSGI! WSGIServer: missing FastCGI param SERVER_PROTOCOL required by WSGI!

lighttpd & django, fcgi issues
I'm having trouble running django with lighttpd (I'm not on a shared host). Here is what I've installed: ubuntu 7.10 lighttpd flup cmemcache python When I go to my web address which maps to the django project directory, all I see is a directory listing, not any django pages. I started fcgi like this, as in the docs: ./manage.py runfcgi method=threaded host=127.0.0.1 port=3033 have this in my lighttpd.conf: server.modules = ( "mod_access", "mod_alias", "mod_accesslog", "mod_compress", "mod_fastcgi", ) fastcgi.server = ( "/mnt/project/mysite.fcgi" => ( "main" => ( "host" => "127.0.0.1", "port" => 3033, "check-local" => "disable", ) ), ) and the mysite.fcgi file: #!/usr/local/bin/python import sys,os sys.path.insert(0,"/mnt/project") os.chdir("/mnt/project") os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE']="settings" from django.core.servers.fastcgi import runfastcgi runfastcgi(method="threaded",daemonize="false") I restarted lighttpd but it's still the same. If I add a 'bin-path' to the fcgi.server I get an error when I restart lighttpd. 1) any suggestions on how to get this working? 2) my DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE is pointing to settings.py in my django project, as I couldn't find any project_settings.py or anything - is this correct? 3) for the fastcgi.server() do i need to give it the path of the .fcgi file? thanks --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
