Web hosting platforms commonly (and should) have their htdocs on a volume that is mounted with noexec, so that things cannot be executed. Check with your hosting provider as to how they have things set up. Incidentally, having your python code installed inside your htdocs is a stunningly bad idea even if you can get it to work, as anyone who can guess the path to a particular file would be able to read its contents. It might be worth contemplating a provider that is better suited to your needs. Cheers Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
