Everything about Mezzanine is awesome. Except deployment. 
I'm new to Mezzanine and Django and struggling to get my site deployed. 
I chose Digital Ocean because for their price, their documentation and 
Josh's fab post: 
http://bitofpixels.com/blog/deploying-mezzanine-to-digital-ocean-using-the-included-fabfile/

I'm attempting two approaches. 
1. The first is following the Digital Ocean guidelines, beginning with this 
tutorial:
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-and-get-started-with-django-based-mezzanine-cms-on-ubuntu

I create a droplet, login, create a virtualenv, pip install mezzanine and 
pillow, mezzanine-project, createdb, runserver like this: python manage.py 
runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
No problem. Fresh Mezzanine project in my browser. 

So I create a new virtualenv and directory, git clone my mezzanine project, 
install requirements, runserver:

django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: The SECRET_KEY setting must 
> not be empty.
>

So I create a local_settings.py file and add a SECRET_KEY. 

Then runserver, and I get this error at http://<my_droplet>:8000

> Bad Request (400)


Am I wrong to think that I can run my Mezzanine project with a development 
server?


Moving on...

2. Following Josh's tutorial: 
http://bitofpixels.com/blog/deploying-mezzanine-to-digital-ocean-using-the-included-fabfile/

I fill in all my settings and when I run fab all, I get:

[jarednielsen.com] Executing task 'all'
>
> ---
> all
> ---
>
>
> -------
> install
> -------
>
>
> $ cat /etc/default/locale ->
>
> [jarednielsen.com] Login password for 'jarednielsen':
>

I enter my password and it times out for a moment, then asks for my 
password again and again. 

What am I missing here? 

Many thanks in advance.
