I see your point. I'm reconsidering the whole thing. Your answer made me think that maybe my setup isn't quite right.
First of all, I've found a solution for my problem of the error when updating code: I will just copy the modules from one app to another, instead of symlinking. I think now it's the best practical solution, and it can be done quickly and easy. This solves the "problem" and allows me to update my web2py apps without reloading uwsgi (of course there will be cases where reloading will have to be done). Now, regarding the setup. You say multiple apps --> multiple uwsgi processes, but I think my configuration is different (and maybe wrong). What I have is the result of having followed this steps of the book: http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/13/deployment-recipes#Nginx So I have: - one only web2py instance - one only uwsgi configuration file, as in the book: /etc/uwsgi/web2py.xml Then, I installed several web2py apps under /var/www/web2py/applications, and I've configured routes.py to serve each web2py app through a specific domain. Inside nginx's configuration, I've defined one virtual host (server block) per domain, and all of them make an uwsgi_pass to the same socket, thus, all web2py apps are using the same socket. I also have uwsgi emperor mode. I know, what's the point of having emperor mode if I have only one uwsgi configuration file? It's because I'm planning to run two more web2py instances, but not right now. Right now, emperor mode is only watching the file /etc/uwsgi/web2py.xml. That file is pretty much like the one showed by the book. So, when I say "reload or restart uwsgi" I mean touching that file, in order to emperor reloading the configuration. Is this setup correct (or at least acceptable) for deploying multiple web2py apps?
