Hello Massimo and list members I'm sociologist from Colombia. technology entusiastic and have a server for humanitarian and professional purposes.
I have an entry question and a second one is about my technical difficulties> First> Almost a month ago I knew web2py and I liked it a lot!!!, and I would like to have my website running on it because I found it powefull, secure and scalable, also I like to hack, and with new challenges I could learned few things of computing. But, I don't know anything about python, I ' m not a programmer but I use linux from almost ten years and I know the basics to mount a server by myself (needing help obviously). What do you suggest to me?: continue installing web2py or go back to my joomla platform and "shutdown and go with web2py like the popular saying here" ? The second question, not less important, and the reason to write to you> The problem is> In my VPS Server If I run python web2py.... it works fine in 8000 port but inmediately My other Apache Virtual Host falls down. When I kill web2py, Apache goes again up when I restart it. In contrast, tests on my personal lapton go well with Apache and web2py Activating by mod_wsgi and mod_proxy alternatives. None of them works. So, Could yo help me please. My project release is in November and I have a lot of work to do so in website content.

Installed modules 2. Changed my "default" file in /etc/apache2/sites-available as suggested 3. Downloaded and located WEB2PY in /var/www/web2py asigned them to www-data:www-data First I Tried configuring with mod_wsgi and SSL content (suggested in your page *With this option nothing happened then with mod_proxy * using this server says that "ProxyRequests are not permited" other logs says> that the mod_proxy version is earlier than my python version . Googling I found that I could reconfigure the module, but I found that difference between versions couldn't be the problem, so I didn't used that option. ALTERNATIVES USED> 1. Enabled an alternate web2py in /etc/apache2/sites-available 2. Tried to comment Proxy requests but then Apache didn't know how to execute web2py.py 3.Created a web2py file in /etc/apache2/sites-available So, Could yo help me please.
