Yup, it works, but I think I left out a key step. In more detail:
- In the webfaction control panel, set up two different applications. one
is a custom type, and one is a static type.
- Put a link from the static folder under the web2py application to the
static application's home folder
- In
So I've been thinking more and more about this over the past few days and
I'm 99% sure that would just serve the static content in the same exact way
it would otherwise (through uwsgi) just from the folder of the other app...
Can you confirm that nginx is actually serving the static
content
I'm also not a sysadmin, but I did go through the process of setting up
web2py on webfaction recently as well. I also found that script but it
seemed to be overly complicated. In particular, there is no need to
download, build run nginx, as you can use webfaction's instance. If there
is an

was told no, that the frontend Nginx server could only be used on
static/PHP sites.
Now that I'm looking into it I'm seeing one major issue that without proper
configuration of Nginx for web2py, it would be serving
What I've done for that is set up another webfaction application of type
static to server all the css, images, audio, videos, etc. That creates a
new folder, for example:
/home/[USER]/webapps/static_web2py_myapp
Then, in my web2py/applications/[my_app]/ folder, I put a symbolic link

Hmm, interesting. I'll give it a try and compare RAM usage/performance
after I've had more time to record data tinkering with the custom Nginx
install.
