Sorta kinda. But the django admin can facilitate part of it. Look into the ModelAdmin.has_FOO_permission() methods. These get passed the request. So you could implement something like: - set has_job_running on User profile model - for possibly dangerous actions, return false for the has_FOO_permission() method if request.user.profile.has_job_running is True. - on job end, reset the user's has_job_running flag. You can refine this to a tee, with different completion stages for the job opening up otherwise denied actions, etc etc. The timeout however, is something with your webserver / wsgi implementation and you should look there. For example, nginx has several timeouts for handling a WSGI request that come into play. Increasing those, also means you tie up resources and are more succeptable to denial of service, so if celery is an option, take it. -- Melvyn Sopacua -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
