[web2py] Geoprocessing tools and web2py

[Marco Tulio Cicero de M. Porto]

Do you guys know of any geoprocessing tools that work with web2py? I'm
using i3geo, but it's php and I'd like, if possible that the tool
was designed to work with web2py or even django... I've heard there was
something made for django, but couldn't find it... saw something about one
called mapfish, but if any of you have worked with geoprocessing tools, and
have them working, I'd like to know...

thanks in advanced,

[web2py] Nginx and Web2py

[Marco Tulio Cicero de M. Porto]

Hi!

I was having trouble on running web2py on nginx, but then I ran the script
that comes within web2py and it installed.
After that, I tried creating an app, but it didn't work.
Then I stopped the server and started web2py like this:
python2.6 web2py.py
and then restarted nginx.
I was able to create my apps.

But I don't know why and it bugs me.
I want use that for production, but not sure if I can use it like that.

Any ideias?

Thanks!

Re: [web2py] Re: Nginx and Web2py

[Marco Tulio Cicero de M. Porto]

Thanks for all the answers.

As I said before, I used the script that comes with web2py ( web2py/scripts
directory).

Installed and ran nginx and uwsgi right away.

What didn't work was the creation of new apps from admin interface. At
least not untill I started web2py manually (python2.6 web2py.py).

This is not a production server yet. I'm testing installation of web2py on
nginx and performance. If everything goes well, I'd like to get my apps
running on it.

I've read many good things about nginx (specially when it comes to use on
VPS), so I'm interested on it.

And since we're on the subject, those who are using nginx today. What do
you think about it ?

I'll do a few more tests and see if things run smoothly. If they do, I'll
probably use it.


Thanks for all the help!

(I'll use Bruno's and Bruce's answers as references).

Cheers,
Marco

[web2py] Package max file size

[Marco Tulio Cicero de M. Porto]

Hi,

Packages are a really cool feature.
They allow you to backup your application (including all the tables, views,
controllers, and also static files, uploads etc).

I made an application that has some static maps (png images), and also made
a few pdf files available for download.

What happens is that my application itself is really small.

But the static files (pdf) and the images that I made available (when I
created an "upload" field) make the size of the
package created really large (about 80Mb).

And now when I try to backup my app, web2py  fails on creating the package.
Although it doesn't say it, I do believe it's about the size of the
package itself.

So, first question is : is there a limit for the size of the package?

If so, how we deal with applications that'll need to use lots of images?

Thanks in advanced.

Could it be a limitation on the "max file size"  on apache then?

I saw something similar on Nginx (had to manually add on the config file a
configuration with the maximum file size).

[web2py] sqlite to postgres

[Marco Tulio Cicero de M. Porto]

Hi!

I was using sqlite as my database for a few projects, but decided to go to
postgres.

While to web2py going from one to another is pretty much a connection
string that you'll change, there's still one problem remaining.

How do I get the data that was on my app (on the sqlite database).

On a small application, I managed to do that by exporting a csv file on the
old app and importing it on the new one. And that's it.

But I have another app that has quite a few tables now... wich means that
I'd have to copy several cvs and import them.

Question is: isn't there an easier way to do it? (to backup a sqlite
database and restore it as postgres in one piece?)

If there isn't, that means that worst case scenario, I'll have to
export/import csv's corresponding to my tables. I can do that...
but there really isn't another way ?

Thanks!

then I read somewhere this:

The argparse module was added in Python 2.7.
http://docs.python.org/library/argparse.html

Prior to 2.7, the most common way to handle command-line arguments was
probably getopt.http://docs.python.org/library/getopt.html

Of course you can always handle the command-line manually simply by looking
at sys.argv. Howevergetopt is a good abstraction layer, and argparse is
even better.

If you truly need argparse in older environments (debatable), there is a
Google Code project maintaining it, and you can include that in your
project. http://code.google.com/p/argparse/

wich means it doesn't work because I just don't have it.

someone said this:

Well if the only thing you need is argparse (saw that in one of your
comments!) you could just do :

pip install argparse

This is not exactly an answer to the exact question :-) , but indeed if you
are only missing a few feature, many 2.7 features actually come from
independent projects and/or some compatibility packages can be found, eg:


Also from:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7473609/argparse-python-modules-in-cli

wich made me think that I'm using 2.6 while there's 2.7 and 3.2 out
there... should I consider upgrading python to a newer version or just get
the missing module?

Hi!

Not sure if it's your case.
I had a similar problem, asked around and Bruce Wade told me that there
were a few changes on uwsgi on ubuntu, so he changed the installation
script a bit and posted it on the list.

The link is:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/web2py/nginx$20update/web2py/ysmeR0mZVZo/nOBTKhPOgi8J

Worked for me.
Hope it works for you too.

Re: [web2py] Re: Nginx-uwsgi problem.

[Marco Tulio Cicero de M. Porto]

We've been testing NginX for a while now, but we're still not using it on
production.
We've used a script from this group to install/configure nginx/web2py/uwsgi.
This script created a web2py configuration file on sites-available with
configurations for HTTP and HTTPS.
The one error message we get is error 504.
But this don't happen often. When we have something small, it works fine.
Get something a little bigger and it starts.
In the example Ovidio told you, there's this 1 web app that has around 51
tables and it's getting a little big...
When we try to acess the application for the first time (through browser),
it'll wait for a few seconds and eventually end up with a 504 error.
After that, we need to restart uwsgi to make other apps work again .

I'll take a look on the log and conf files to share.

Cheers!

Re: [web2py] Connection with DB not Working... Help!

[Marco Tulio Cicero de M. Porto]

Just to be sure,

is your postgres configured properly? Postgres need a few adjustments on
some config files in order to grant access to the database (specially if
it's an external access - other than localhost).

Just check that first, ok ?

Good Luck!
