I am a beginner in developing websites by Django. I run small discussion websites similar to SO. I have an account at Bluehost which has been a nightmare in developing by Django. I have found that Webfaction and Google App Engine seems to be the best choices for Django. However, I am not sure which one is the best for me. Is Google Ap...
I had a small proof of concept set up on a development server on a local machine. I'm now trying to move it over to django on a production server, which I'm using webfaction for. However, now that I'm switched over to apache from the built in django server I get the following: ViewDoesNotExist: Could not import orgDisplay.views. Error...
hi folks, I having trouble serving Django's static admin files on webfaction. Here's how I'm currently set up: I've created a 'Symbolic link to static-only app', and provided the link to Django admin files in 'extra info': /home/myusername/webapps/mydjangoapp/lib/python2.5/django/contrib/admin/media (cd'ing into that directory works ...

I'm looking to install Sphinx and thinking_sphinx on my basic shared hosting plan at webfaction so I can properly deploy my rails app. I'm positive webfaction supports this under my plan. I'm not anything near a linux guru in terms of skill level, but I know the basics. How can I install Sphinx on my shared host without having sudo priv...
I moved my first Django project from DjangoEurope to Webfaction, and that started an issue looking like a memory leak. With every single request memory usage of the server process goes up about 500kb. It never goes down. This goes on until Webfaction kills it for using too much memory. I can clearly see this when I refresh the Django's ...
I have read http://forum.webfaction.com/viewtopic.php?pid=15203#p15203 and I have no solution. Anyone can help me?? ...
I have an existing Perl app that I'm moving to a Webfaction website. I will be adding Django apps to this Webfaction website too. I would like the Django app to get first call and so would want its URL path to be / This would allow me to add any new URLs to the urls.py I wish as my app grows. If the URL doesn't match anything in the u...
Hi there, I've followed these instructions to set up Django with multiple databases. It's working as intended in my local dev environment (win7), however, when I upload the project to my live server (webfaction), I get ImproperlyConfigured: Error importing database router MyCustomRouter: "No module named path.to.my.router" From the Dj...
I'm trying to run ./manage.py test But it tells me Got an error creating the test database: permission denied to create database Obviously it doesn't have permission to create the database, but I'm on a shared server, so there's not much I can do about that. I can create a new database through the control panel but I don't think...
I'm trying to set up mongodb on webfaction. It works fine, currently running on port 36505 on the server. I can connect to it on the server just fine. But per the firewall, I can't connect to 36505 on the server from the 'net. I can expose the port by mapping the port to port 80 under a sub-path. So I can make 1.1.1.1:36505 to 1.1.1.1:8...
Do webapp hosting sites such as webfaction.com support the use of cmd tools such as pdftk and pdftotext? For example, if in my django-powered site I do something like subprocess.Popen("pdftk.exe....") would this still work when I begin hosting the site? ...
Hello. I'm a point where I'm needing to move a large traffic website off of MediaTemple Grid Server (it's maxing out the resources there now and they have actually asked politely for it to be moved to something more suitable) and on to a new server that can handle things better. My first thought was setting up a VPS. The site has two m...
