We were running the GeoNode demo site on CentOS 5 until a few months ago and I expect that a new deployment on that platform will work fine. We actually built Python 2.6 from sources on that machine, but I believe EPEL's Python package will be perfectly suitable.
Most of us in the channel are around from 9 to 6 Eastern time. If that's not going to work for you we can fall back to the mailing list (probably the best thing in that case would be for me to publish a set of installation instructions and then we can troubleshoot our way through those, updating the docs as needed.) -- David Winslow OpenGeo - http://opengeo.org/ On Mon, Sep 20, 2010 at 2:04 PM, Mathieu Baudier <[email protected]> wrote: > > Please ask on IRC.
