Apache Double Slash Help

[Jesus Ignacio Gómez Pérez]

 I am part of a colaborative initiative to develop software on Django, 
currently i'm working with Apache and Oscar Framework and i'm having 
troubles with the following request URI "
*dashboard/content-blocks/page//asistenciaMedica/*", which returns a 404 
code from Django url router which translate this URI to this one "
*/dashboard/content-blocks/page/asistenciaMedica/*", as you can see the URI 
has an extra slash on the "*/page//asistenciaMedica/*" section, i can't 
change the application behavior  because it is part of the framework 
mentioned above, so my doubt is the following:

How to configure Apache server to accept double slash and/or how to prevent 
the Django's url router to translate this special characters?

I would be grateful for your reply.

Regards.

Hi, I got the same kind of an error as below.  CSRF Verification error 
appeared after I changed DNS
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/django-users/dQXdPeAd6Fg/wFsEG03Qeu0J
And there is no solution written in there. Hope someone can help me.

Versions

In my case, I got u'CSRF_COOKIE' instead of 'csrf' in request.

I appreciate any solution for this issue.

​If I implemented it correctly, it doesn't have any effect.  I ​get the
same number of queries reported by DjDT and effectively the same amount of
time.

The model called Cluster is the most egregious.

Not true - in most cases you can fix it on the server side, but the
details depend on your server configuration. You need to configure
whatever front-end server is listening for the web requests to ignore
any requests coming in for a host name that you don't want your server
to respond to. If you're using Apache, this meand making sure that your
Django site is running in a name-based virtualhost (and not the default
one). If you're using nginx, it just means setting the server_name of
the server block to the hostname(s) you actually want to serve. Etc.

Re: Invalid HTTP_HOST, can someone explain why I am getting this?

[François Schiettecatte]

There is nothing to debug, Django is just telling you that it is getting an 
invalid request where the ‘Host:’ header does not match the host name the 
application is expecting. Django will reject such requests and warn you about 
them:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/ref/settings/#allowed-hosts

Re: Invalid HTTP_HOST, can someone explain why I am getting this?

[Andreas Kuhne]

You are getting it because someone has come to your server by entering
www.g3suprimentos.com.br in a browser. If you don't have that address in
the allowed hosts setting, you will get the error you have received.

If you don't want your server to show something for www.g3suprimentos.com.br,
then the problem is not on your end, but rather the clients (it can be an
incorrect DNS entry, or that someone has edited their hosts file). So you
can't do anything to fix it.

Re: What is the ideal web server to use with Django?

[Ilya Kazakevich]

Hi.

I believe the best installation is Apache + wsgi and nginx for static. 

In some scenarios Apache performance may be your bottleneck, but:
1) there are a lot of ways to tune it. Read about "Multi-Processing 
Modules" for example.
2) 99% of web applications do have different bottlenecks, not the web 
server.
3) really huge installations should use clusters hence should be scalable 
horizontally. In such scenarios web server performance is not an issue 
(unless you work for Google or Facebook) :)

I have created a model with primary key, later i have removed the primary 
key and used default `id` as primary key

When i tried to migrate it is throwing error with multiple primary keys 
defined

Before running migrate i have executed on MySQL command interface

"ALTER TABLE `table_name` DROP PRIMARY KEY;"


After this i re run the migrate. It executed perfectly.


Thanks
Ravi Teja N

Does the suggestion to append select_related() / prefetch_related() to the 
queryset in your admin view not work?

Re: Scaling/Parallel patterns for a View executing complex database transaction

[mesulphur]

Hi Stephen,

We did try with Redis (instead of memcached) but the memory usage Redis 
is 2.5x-3x the volume of data, the economics of having entire data in 
memory then breaks down. Also because of the large degree of 
variation/random access patterns, there is little benefit in using an 
LRU cache layer.


Thanks!

Hi Russ,

Thanks! While there are some pointers that we can pick up from your answer,
let me add some more details.

* It is a large key-value pair table (approaching ~ 1 bn rows) with an MD5
key and JSON  for value. The look ups depend on the business logic but are
necessary. Nevertheless, there are no more than 10-12 queries executed by
combining key look ups using WHERE IN queries and pg is surprisingly good
with IN queries.

* Pre-computation is theoretically possible but the permutations can be very
limiting. Over the top of my head, I think it will be M^n where M and n are
very large (and growing) integers.

* You are right, celery+polling can be done but the API is already deployed
and in use in environments where there is strong resistance to rework a code
base which is stable and changing them (consumers of the API) is beyond
control.

Stack: Django 1.7 + Postgres 9.3 + Linux (No caching)

Our application has a view which is called/executed very frequently. The
view receives, parses and responds a JSON.

In between request and response, there are about 3-5 inserts and around
1200-5000 look ups depending upon some if..else business logic. At around
2-4 seconds the view is very slow.

However, a lot of the look ups (which are the bottlenecks) can be
parallelized. But I do not know how can I do the same within a
request-response cycle.

If it was a web UI, I could use celery+polling, since it a
machine-machine API call, the parallelisation has to be possible within a
View's life cycle.

If parallelisation is not possible, what alternatives do I have for
scaling and reducing response time.


The short answer is "it depends".

There isn't a single answer - everything will depend on the specifics of
your problem space. All I can offer is some vague suggestions of places you
might be able to look for some extra speed.

  * Do you *really* need to do 1200-5000 lookups? It's faster to do 1 query
returning 10 rows than 10 queries returning 1 row each. Can you optimise the
queries on the database to minimise the number of queries needed? Depending
on circumstances, it may even be faster to do 1 query returning 15 rows, and
then post-process in the view to throw away the 5 rows you don't need.

  * Better still - can you optimize the database structure so that
1200-5000 calls aren't needed? Modern relational databases are *really* good
at query optimisation - if you give it the right query, and the right
database.

  * Can you work your algorithm another way? In a previous job, I worked on
a tool that would look at a database of thousands of news articles received
in a given day, and then, for each of thousands of users, work out which
articles were "interesting" so they could be sent out in a daily alert
email. The obvious algorithm for this is "for user in users:
find_articles(user)" - but, for a variety of reasons, it turned out that
doing "for article in articles: find_users(article)" was almost 2 orders of
magnitude of faster. The less obvious algorithm allowed much greater
caching, and massively cut down the number of queries that were required.
The tradeoff was a lot more memory (memory vs speed is almost always the
tradeoff), and it wasn't only faster if you computed the results for *all*
users at the same time - but this was an daily offline process, so these
were limitations we were willing to accept.

  * To that end - is there anything that can be precomputed? Can you cache
pieces of the response? Is there anything you can put into a memory store,
rather than the database. Databases are great, but if you have a small
amount of frequently re-used, easily keyed data, it may be better to put
that data into a location where it can be obtained quickly, rather than
hitting the database.

  * If you *must* parallelize, and your algorithm is conducive to it,
threads are probably your best option - work out what part of your algorithm
can be parallelized, and put each part in a thread, and merge the results
once all the threads complete. If you're on Python 3, look into the
concurrent.futures module (or the "futures" module if you're on Python 2) to
help make this easier to manage. However, threads aren't magic fairy dust -
my "limited knowledge of your situation" guess is that parallelization won't
help you. If you've g

possible bug - CharField accepts string as max_length

[Santiago L]

Hi,

I think that I have found a bug on the system check: it accepts a string as 
value for CharField.max_length argument.

It happens only if the string can be converted to int (e.g. 
max_length='16'). Otherwise shows fields.E121 error (e.g. max_length='foo').

from django.db import models

class Foo(models.Model):
bar = models.CharField(max_length='16')


# following code raises an Exception
obj = Foo(bar='lorem ipsum')
obj.clean_fields()


Traceback:

Re: What is the ideal web server to use with Django?

[Avraham Serour]

>chausette allows you to run over a unix socket, and this allows
circusd to easily spin up a new backend (with different code) and
transfer requests to that unix socket, whilst leaving the old backend
still running.

This was the killer feature that I started using uwsgi, you can reload your
new django code without uwsgi closing the socket, in the worst case some
requests may feel a little delay but won't feel any downtime

I once even did a crazy thing: a form that updated and reload its own
django code (git pull and uwsgi reload), it worked great, user would click
on the button to update the system, the request would come and the user
would get the updated version on reload (because form response is redirect)

my only problem was doing the same trick on cygwin, but that's another story

There are few very cool things I like about circusd + chaussette,
chausette allows you to run over a unix socket, and this allows
circusd to easily spin up a new backend (with different code) and
transfer requests to that unix socket, whilst leaving the old backend
still running.

This means zero downtime when doing a code upgrade, and instant
failback to the old application if for some reason you don't like what
was pushed.

The second thing is that circusd is a process manager like
supervisord, but it allows for dynamic operation - you can run celery
worker processes underneath it, and spin up/spin down worker processes
as you see fit to allow for load.

The third is that circusd is accessed by a web interface, which allows
for simple day to day use and also simplifies how admins and sysadmins
can interact with it. Its very easy for our sysadmins to control
things they can just fire http requests at.
