Re: django-admin.py --> permission denied (shared server deployment)

[x]

hey, 

thanks for the quick responses!
before i go any further on installing i need to think about 
tom evans advise:

but there is something i didn't understand: couldn't i go into the permissions 
and do something like "chmod u-xwr " if i wouldn't want one reading 'a 
specific' file? 

i already found a host who's more python-friendly 
then the one i'm currently stuck with ("1&1" in germany). 

cheers

Also: installing postgres w/o root Re: django-admin.py --> permission denied (shared server deployment)

[Andrew Farrell]

Hi Florian

It occurs to me that, you may want to install postgresql, a more powerful
database. Here is how to do so without root permissions:

conda install --channel https://conda.binstar.org/bkreider postgresql
psycopg2
which psql
createuser -s test_user1 --pwprompt --createdb --no-superuser
--no-createrole
createdb -U test_user1 --locale=en_US.utf-8 -E utf-8 -O test_user1
test_database1 -T template0

This will install both postgres and the python-postgres adapter into the
isolated environment. It will then create a postgres user and ask you for a
password. I'll assume you gave it the password "testpass" for the purpose
of this tutorial. Then, it will create a database owned by that user and
using UTF-8 encoding.

Now, we just need to configure django use this. Open settings.py and at
line 77, change the DATABASES variable to look like

DATABASES = {
'default': {
  'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql_psycopg2',
  'NAME': 'test_database1',
  'USER': 'test_user1',
  'PASSWORD': 'testpass',
  'HOST': 'localhost',
  'PORT': '5432',
}
}

Then you can set up your tables with

python manage.py migrate

You can also log in to the database with

python manage.py dbshell

Re: django-admin.py --> permission denied (shared server deployment)

[Andrew Farrell]

Hello Florian,

If you are having trouble installing python without root permissions, you
should consider installing the miniconda
 distribution of python that is
used in the scientific computing community. Assuming you are on a linux
server, you can do this with

wget https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/Miniconda-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
chmod +x ./Miniconda-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
./Miniconda-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh -b
conda update conda
conda create --name try_django django
source activate try_django

This will set you up with an isolated conda environment (similar to a
virtualenv environment) where you can install packages without touching
anyone else's packages. From there you can do

django-admin.py startproject test_project
cd test_project
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000

And to get yourself set up with the django dev server running on top of
sqlite.
You can see the documentation for conda here .

Web hosting platforms commonly (and should) have their htdocs on a
volume that is mounted with noexec, so that things cannot be executed.
Check with your hosting provider as to how they have things set up.

Incidentally, having your python code installed inside your htdocs is
a stunningly bad idea even if you can get it to work, as anyone who
can guess the path to a particular file would be able to read its
contents.

It might be worth contemplating a provider that is better suited to your needs.

Cheers

Tom

django-admin.py --> permission denied (shared server deployment)

[x]

hello hello, 

finally i was able to install a python instance on my shared-server. 
it was also impossible to pip-install django. yeah. 

but right then - so close already - i got a permission problem again. 
i couldn't figure out exactly what django-admin.py wants to do/execute and why 
it's 
not satisfied with my nice brand new local python 2.7.9 instance.. muhhuuu. 

this is the ssh prompt: 

> (uiserver):u74138225:~/django_build >  django-admin.py startproject test

> Permission denied

for any suggestions how to domesticate django on this shared server i'd be very 
happy. 

thanks and all the best
