I'm having a strange problem trying to get a django site running on a
Solaris-8 server. (This OS is definitely not my choice, but it's what
I must use..)
I have a simple project set up using a the postgresql_psycopg2 backend
and I am able to use the 'manage.py shell' to connect to the postgres
database server via port 5432 on a different machine on the LAN. This
works just fine and I can read and update tables as expected. The
problem comes when I try to use the development server ('manage.py
runserver') to actually see the web app. In this case I get:
OperationalError at /browse/
could not connect to server: No such file or directory Is the server
running on host "ccosmos.xx.yy.zz" and accepting TCP/IP connections on
port 5432?
Request Method: GET
Request URL: http://localhost:8000/browse/
Exception Type: OperationalError
Exception Value: could not connect to server: No such file or
directory Is the server running on host "ccosmos.xx.yy.zz" and
accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
Exception Location: /data/cosmos/lib/python2.5/django/db/backends/
postgresql_psycopg2/base.py in _cursor, line 67
Python Executable: /usr/local/bin/python
Python Version: 2.5.0
So the question is what is different between 'shell' and 'runserver'
in terms of connecting to the database server, since the 'shell' works
just fine. This django project functions completely (both with the
dev server and apache2/mod_python) on a test ubuntu server that I set
up, so there is nothing obviously wrong with the overall setup.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Alas I'm more of an astronomer
than a programmer, just trying to improve on our current setup that
generates thousands of static web pages to present info on a large X-
ray sky survey...
