Running Django on CentOS?

view full story

http://serverfault.com – I have a problem running Django with mod_wsgi and Apache on CentOS. Django runs on Python 2.5 or above but CentOS comes with Python 2.4. I can't just upgrade the default Python 2.4 because it breaks other services such as yum. I installed Python 2.7 into different directory. I followed most of the tutorial and article about running Django with mod_wsgi but never able successfully run it. Does any of you run Django on CentOS successfully? If so, how did you do it?

I'm trying to setup Django w/ MySQL.

I've got Apache and mod_wsgi up and running, and am now trying to introduce django to mysql.

I've created a database named 'django' and a 'django' user.

I've granted all to django on django:

grant ALL on django.* to 'django'@'localhost';

Django's settings.py has been configured with MySQL's settings:

DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'djan

I have installed Python 2.7 but still kept Python 2.4. When I enter the command python, it runs python 2.4 and I want to keep it this way. But how to I set Django to use /usr/local/bin/python2.7 when it runs?

1.I need to set pytho

I have a django app which can run locally using the standard development environment. I want to now move this to EC2 for production. The django documentation suggests running with apache and mod_wsgi, and using nginx for loading static files.

I am running Ubuntu 12.04 on an Ec2 box.

I am trying to get a django website up and running using WSGI. The box is running centos 5 with python 6.

I'm currently using CentOS (512 RAM, Dual-core CPU) for my website. Here are the specs:

Django 1.3.1 Python 2.7.2 Apache 2 with mod_wsgi 3.3 MySQL 5 (about 5,000 records) Memcached (120 MB for running) Nginx for serving the static content

When my site has 2,000 visitors at the same time, the CPU usage reachs about 40% of total. And with 10K visitors, CPU is 90%-100%. The site is very slow.
