Re: runaway apache takes up all of swap

This problem turned out to be an application issue. I am using GeoDjango and calling buffer() with a negative value which caused problems on certain polygons for the underlying GEOS library. Thanks to everyone who responded off list. -- --Leo On Fri, Oct 30, 2009 at 8:48 AM, Leo Shklovskii

runaway apache takes up all of swap

I've got a strange problem that I've been trying to figure out over the past few days with apache suddenly taking up 100% of memory and swap, effectively killing the server. The setup is: Ubuntu Jaunty (fully updated) nginx/0.6.35 serving static and proxying to: Apache/2.2.11 (Ubuntu) mod_wsgi Pyt

GeoDjango/Maxmind GeoIP on Windows

Has anyone gotten the MaxMind GeoIP functionality working on Windows? I'm having a tough time getting the dll compiled from source and can't seem to find it anywhere. -- --Leo --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Goo

checking for decorators or view meta properties

I'd like to write some code that modifies a page depending on whether the view that generated it requires login or not. Right now all such views are decorated with @login_required. My initial thoughts on how to do this (coming from java) would be to slap an annotation on the views that are sec

Re: Correctly referencing media files in templates.

You also want to look here for a suggestion on how to access settings.MEDIA_URL: http://www.b-list.org/weblog/2006/jun/14/django-tips-template-context-processors/ I know (at least one of) the ticket(s) for embedding access to the MEDIA_URL in the default context has been closed as wontfix, but

Re: template loading and generic views

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? is there a recommended way to lay out the templates on a per-application basis? does it make sense to change either of the two defaults to be consistent with each other? -- --Leo Leo Shklovskii wrote: > I've got a question about the templates

template loading and generic views

I've got a question about the templates that the generic views load. I have a app (named 'foo' in this example) that has its templates in a templates folder to work with django.template.loaders.app_directories.load_template_source. so: foo/templates/bar.html foo/templates/bar_list.html Howeve

Re: guid's in python

Thanks Tim! That's a cool way of looking at it. I don't actually need to pass the uuid to a browser via JSON, I just need to store the uuid as a member field of an object in my db and be able to provide a fixture with it. What I've ended up doing is importing the uuid library (which can be fo

Re: guid's in python

I've been able to dig into this a little bit more and it looks like django.utils.simplejson.decoder doesn't support the '\x' escape character. Is this an intentional omission, a bug in Django, or just me misunderstanding Python? -- --Leo Leo Shklovskii wrote: >

guid's in python

Hi, I'm trying to represent an Active Directory's user guid in Django. In AD, its a 128 bit integer that I can pull out with using the ldap library. When I access the guid, python treats it as a string with most of the characters escaped, so something like: "\xdd3\x9e0\xd9\xf4\x93B\x90\xdehDe
