Re: [web2py] How to run web2py on Linux Shared Hosting With No Shell, or SSH access

[Carlos Cesar Caballero Díaz]

Hi, sometimes clients have a shared hosting, and they don't want to 
change...


The most recommended way is wcgi or mod python, but if the shared 
hosting not support it, and you have no option, you can run it with the 
cgi support (almost all support it), really not recomended because of 
performance, but for a low traffic site can work. If you need it I can 
post how I did it in a namecheap shared hosting.


Regards.

mod_python should not be used by anybody anymore.


How to use web2py on shared hosting really depends on what they allow. 
Probably your best best is running web2py locally under the 
credentials of the user of the shared account and use htaccess/cpanel 
to do a port redirection using for example apache mod_proxy. I can 
give more details if you point me to some documentation from the host 
company.

Hi,
I am trying to deploy Web2Py on my linux shared
hosting with siliconhouse.net .
Python runs on their system, able to run HelloWorld.py
But when i unzipped the files on my public_html
folder(with 755 permission on *.py files), instead of
running it, it shows me listing of all files including
*.py files.
I am not sure what the problem is? If i click on any
*.py files, it shows me 500-Internal Server Error 500.
I have no shell or SSH access, is there a simple and
easy way for me to be able to run web2py on this.
They are using mod_python, and i can not deploy
mod_wsgi. Is there any alternate, or is there
something i can do my editable area i.e. inside
public_html/..., so that when open my site i should be
able to see running web2py application of my choice?
I shall be highly thankful for any assistance on this.
Regards,
Neeraj Kumar

I do not understand why anybody would use shared hosting in 2015 when you 
can have PythonAnywere or Google App Engine for free or a dedicated VM on 
Digital Ocean for $5/mo.

Anyway, the book chapter "Shared hosting with mod_python" must go. 
mod_python should not be used by anybody anymore.

[web2py] How to run web2py on Linux Shared Hosting With No Shell, or SSH access

[Neeraj Kumar]

Hi,
 
I am trying to deploy Web2Py on my linux shared hosting with 
siliconhouse.net.
 
Python runs on their system, able to run HelloWorld.py
 
But when i unzipped the files on my public_html folder(with 755 permission 
on *.py files), instead of running it, it shows me listing of all files 
including *.py files.
 
I am not sure what the problem is? If i click on any *.py files, it shows 
me 500-Internal Server Error 500.
 
I have no shell or SSH access, is there a simple and easy way for me to be 
able to run web2py on this.
 
They are using mod_python, and i can not deploy mod_wsgi. Is there any 
alternate, or is there something i can do my editable area i.e. inside 
public_html/..., so that when open my site i should be able to see running 
web2py application of my choice?
 
I shall be highly thankful for any assistance on this.
