Christian,

I would think that the 'best way' is whatever suits you. If you're used to mod_python/mysql/apache, then use those. If you're more comfortable with a tinyhttpd/fcgi setup then use that.

You'll find links on how to use these two setups on the main django site:

http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/modpython/
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/fastcgi/

If you've used neither then I would suggest trying the mod_python/ apache route as you can then server the django app and the media all from the same place (if you want to).

Hope that is of some help.

Thanks,

David

Hi there!

This is a message for all those that have been successful in deploying django. It is not that I find myself unable to get a django project to show up in a web browser, but I'm wondering about "best practises", "the right way", and
all that stuff.

It's been hard to find a hosting provider giving a django-capable hosting
solution at an affordable price, and I have found myself paying for a
dedicated just for this matter. Also, (mt) is working on a django- container. But I was disappointed the minute I knew they'd be running it off lighttpd + fcgi. They're working closely together with the two guys who made django, so
I wonder what they'd be telling them about "the right way".

I have started a quest to gather all relevant information about django
deployment, since I have found many lagoons in what I have found, including the django book's chapter "deploying django". They're talking about server farms and load balancing, but not a single side note is thrown about what some not-so-guru-like person might be wondering about when first deploying a
django app.

I can understand that you might think that apache and postgresql matters are out of scope. Maybe. But I don't think so. For the sake of completeness and comprehensiveness, I'll be seeking and throwing together whatever I might
find usefull for all those django-noobs out there.

Anyone up to help gathering? I might need some help :-)

Sincerely,
