Re: Where to create a Django project

Hope this helps When working on an AWS Elastic Beanstalk instance, you can log into the system using Secure Shell (SSH), with a key pair. For EBeanstalk, that key pair was either created or selected from existing keys at the time that you created the server. >From there you have a typic

Re: Running a custom code after the server is up

If I understand your situation, you want to run a management command fairly promptly after Django-server reboot, and not again for the duration of the server's uptime. Cron is useful and convenient for repeated tasks. And it can be made to handle once-and-done tasks, if you keep a bit of stat

Re: Different results of running pure SQL query from Django and from PGAdmin

I'd be interested to see a printout of 'columns' and 'cursor.description'. One explanation would be that your for-loop is not actually accessing the data that you think it is, or that your query is not actually fetching the data that you think it is. No criticism of your query implied - just
