>> BENEFITS
>>

Re: Newbie question about accesing my development Django instance from other computers in my LAN

2012-07-27 Thread Christopher Downard 
Assuming both laptops are connected to the same local network (192.168.1.*)
then it should be able to access the server.

Are you getting a page not found or are you getting an error with the URLs?

My server starts up just fine with python manage.py runserver
192.168.1.149:8020 (my lan's info).

If you're getting page not found I'd guess it's something related to your
network (try ipconfig/all on both computers to make sure). If you're
getting a urls error then you can post your URLs file to dpaste or the
like.

Try python manage.py runserver 192.168.1.116 where that address is your
computer's address.

Re: New to Django, need help starting

2012-06-21 Thread Christopher Downard 
It's useful to use virtualenv despite a slight learning curve. I didn't do
that at first and now I'm going back and using virtualenv now because I've
learned that the version of Django does matter depending on what you want
to do and it's easier to be able to isolate versions.

i.e. Django1.4 doesn't play nicely with Django-CMS.
