What does your Apache log look like? What, exactly, is the 500? A common issue when deploying is if your fcgi or wsgi script doesn't have the correct permissions set, which would cause an error that can't be caught by Django. -Original Message- From: django-users@googlegroups.com [mailto:

First off, I think a good question to ask is *why* do you want to learn Django very deeply? Do you want to become a contributor to the project or do you want to be a user? If you want to be a user, then I'd recommend against getting too deep in Django (at least until it's absolutely necessary). The

Er, it's easy to install on Windows until you want to install a package that has C extensions. Then, you're either scouring the web for pre-builts (which can be a pain depending on your architecture and your level of paranoia about the contents of the binaries) or you're installing a GNU toolchain

You *can* install Django on Linux, Mac or Windows. Choose the environment that you're most accustomed to if you're just trying to get things done. However, if you want to learn Linux at the same time (at least, bits of it), then I fully endorse going down that path. On Wed, Sep 5, 2012 at 9:19 PM,
