Long answer - you can create everything, directory structure etc etc offline on your dev machine and upload it to your production machine (too much to expect svn on that?). You could also pipe the sqlall to a file and create a script to initialise/update your database which you can run using phppgadmin or whatever. Ideally, if there is some way you could use svn on your production machine, you could do everything on your local machine and just svn up whenever you want changes. Even creating a superuser can be done by creating an sql script offline. It can be done, but if you are serious about django go for root access - or at least shell access -- regards kg http://lawgon.livejournal.com http://nrcfosshelpline.in/web/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
