#django

when I visit the page http://domain.com/mysite it just lists .htacess & django.fcgi (as a directory listing). how do I get the django generated content?

vmand_000: don't run runserver on anything exposed to the world, via public ip. just start the server you are using, apache?

yes bluehost use apache I suppose

aidan_: congratulations it worked, now look for what is causing that 500

djapo: I suppose apache is already being run by bluehost. sorry for the dumb qn, what do I need to start and how do I start accessing http://domain.com/mysite like I see for http://127.0.0.1:8000/ (if i go with runserver)

aidan_: since it looks like you are running in localhost, set DEBUG=True, and use a browser to see the debug .. if you want to stay n the cli use elinks

vmand_000: no!, don't use runserver. you can try to restart apacheif it doesn't reload.

djapo: I'm not sure if I can even restart apache because I'm on shared host (bluehost).

vmand_000: but if you want to use runserver, this is how

vmand_000: ./manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000

djapo: it didn't work, that's the ImproperlyConfigured at / error that I started with

but do not, do not do .. what i just showed you.

aidan_: do you have more debug info

The included urlconf abas.urls doesn't have any patterns in it

aidan_: than put some in there

djapo: I suppose you're referring to development server. I want to run it in production mode so that I can access it publicly

vmand_000: yeah, thats why you are using apache. i would recommend nginx with a gunicorn proxy to the django app

like so http://ijcdigital.com/blog/django-gunicorn-and-...

djapo: haha

djapo: ./manage.py runserver works fine

djapo: ./manage.py run_gunicorn works fine

neat

right, so it's got urls in it

yes

djapo: the link you've shared refers to modifying files in /etc. but I don't have root access on shared host.

so why is there a difference between ./manage.py run_gunicorn and gunicorn abas.wsgi:application?

how can I fix it?

djapo: I'm relying on fastcgi and to that effect configured django.fcgi appropriately. shouldn't that work. http://simplyargh.blogspot.com/2012/04/python-2... suggests that it should work

vmand_000:hhmmm, you might have to see for options in your shared host provider. perhaps the tutorial you followed is out of date

djapo: I just need to know how to invoke the django code...

or, you need to know if apache is getting the right configuration

it doesn't appear to do any path setting

vmand_000: did you do this .. Remember to change /homeX/your_username to your home directory path on bluehost.

that does though

aidan_: can you provide a link to the raw file, im on cli only

djapo: you mean $HOME=/homeX/username ?

vmand_000: yes

djapo: echo $HOME points to /homeX/myusername and also in the .bashrc I used ~/directory structure to add Python/django specific paths to the environment variable

vmand_000: well adjust them so they reflect your username, is your username myusername?

aidan_: yeah, i don't see anything special there. what does running gunicorn myproject.wsgi:application from your manage.py dir say

it should really be that simple

so if there is an error, it would produce a traceback

yelloo

djapo: I don't know why you suspect ~ or $HOME would be a problem. Anyway I modified the PATH variable to reflect absolute path /home4/fourunit

djapo: but no luck getting django project text

vmand_000: are you sure you read that page? the most important lines "Remember to change /homeX/your_username to your home directory path on bluehost. Change myproject.settings to correct project name.

"

djapo: I gave you the traceback

djapo: it thinks there's no urls in abas.urls.py

aidan_: hmm, i don't see that in the traceback.

you speak of this http://dpaste.com/0B9BSQP

djapo: I've already changed django.fcgi appropriately (in fact used absolute path) as per the instruction. I thought you were referring to path in .bashrc. But no luck

vmand_000: alright and you sure you followed the tutorial? well, paste everything.

also cd; pwd;

what does that print?

Hi

hello

hey djapo, i'm trying to decide if i need the three tiered (parent child grandchild) database structure

if you remember my project at all, it's a tournament report system, user enters an event which has x rounds and y matches per round

yes, and you wanted formsets within formsets within formsets

well

not quite that bad =P

just one level deep =P

so i'm wondering how to structure my models for this

should i do match/round/tournament

or do i need the round model

cause a round is just a group of x matches and has no other attributes

but they happen sequentially so round 1, 2, 3 are separate

mekhami: if a round is a group of matches, what is a round to a tournament.

?

the same thing, but the order of rounds can be important

mostly to calculating who had the best tiebreakers at the end of the event

is there a fix number of rounds?

number of players in the event/2

so not fixed, based on user entry

if so you could do a, round1 round2 .. roundn field layout .. hmm never mind

what o you mean parent child granchild database structure, are you talking about using multiple databases or just model relations?

model relations

i wonder.. if i could just have a round_number attribute in my MATCH model.. that is determined by the ordering in the formset...

mekhami: are there any fields on the round that can be use to sort them by?

on the round? not yet it literally only has a foreignkey to event

mekhami: doesn't match already have a relation to a round? what would be the point of having the round number on the match than?

i haevn't put the round number on the match yet because i just thought of it and i don't know exactly how to implement it

because the round number would have to be determiend by the formset

when you said event, did you mean match?

event = tournament

in the parent/child/grandchild structure: match has fk to round, round has fk to event

but i'm wondering if i can eliminate round entirely

hmm, where would you store who won the round. or would you calculate that every time from who won the match?

that can be calculated by p1wins and p2wins from the form

hmm, sounds like there is alot of implementation details i don't know about your project. like if an event is going to have rounds and those rounds have matches it sounds to me like you might want through models
