Hi Mark, Your question doesn't leave enough detail to really fill in an answer. Which instructions did you use (the URL), and where is it failing? If you've got Django set up with FCGI, you're probably routing the requests through either the built-in Apache server or something like Lighttpd or NGinx. Did you use either of those?
When you run the development version of Django with its built in server, pointing your browser to http://127.0.0.1:8000/ should do the trick. In the process of setting up anything else, you should be pointing your browser to that service and whatever port you defined (typically 80). Can you shed any more light to let us help you? -joe On 4/30/07, Mark Phillips <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello from a newbie on this list.
