Thank you for this. Is uWSGI not available to apt-get ? Any idea on how cherokee performs serving both python and ruby applications?
In my apache/mod_wsgi setup, web2py was happily running at 35MB. Then I installed mod_passenger to serve the ruby app and apache memory usage spiked to ~250 just for the ruby process. -Thadeus On Tue, Feb 23, 2010 at 2:56 PM, GrayMatterComputing <[email protected]> wrote: > web2py with Cherokee via uWSGI: a simple, easy guide > (written specifically for Ubuntu, but applicable to all systems) > By: Evan Gray - GrayMatterComputing > > 1) web2py > a) Download web2py (found at web2py.com) > i) Install python, if not present: sudo apt-get install python > b) Unzip (to /var/web2py) > c) Run: sudo python /var/web2py/web2py.py -a desiredpassword > d) Verify that it functions properly (by visiting localhost:8000), > then close the server (Ctrl+C in terminal) > e) Allow server permission to web2py: sudo chown -hR www-data\: /var/ > web2py > i) Where "www-data" is Cherokee's effective user (www-data is the > default) > > 2) uWSGI > a) Download uWSGI (found at projects.unbit.it/uwsgi/) > b) Unpackage wherever and cd into folder > i) Install dependencies for make, if not present: sudo apt-get > install python-dev libxml2-dev > c) Make uwsgi: sudo make -f Makefile.Py26 > d) Install: sudo cp uwsgi26 /usr/local/bin/uwsgi > e) Create config.xml: sudo cat > /var/web2py/config.xml > <uwsgi> > <pythonpath>/var/web2py/</pythonpath> > <app mountpoint="/"> > <script>wsgihandler</script> > </app> > </uwsgi> > [PRESS ENTER] > [PRESS CTRL+D] > > 3) Cherokee > a) Install Cherokee (follow the instructions at cherokee-project.org) > i) Note: I highly recommend using the PPA method so you can be sure > to have the latest version and no issues! > b) Run cherokee-admin: sudo cherokee-admin > c) Visit admin console (via browser, password is shown in terminal): > localhost:9090 > d) Go to Virtual Servers, click Wizards, click Platforms, click uWSGI > i) New Host Name: web2py > ii) Document Root: /var/web2py > iii) Configuration File: /var/web2py/config.xml > iv) Same logs as vserver: default(combined) > v) Submit > e) Go to Virtual Servers, click default > i) Under "Basics", Virtual Server Nickname: original > f) Go to Virtual Servers, click web2py > i) Under "Basics", Virtual Server Nickname: default > ii) Under "Logging", verify all logging is correct (matches > original) > g) Go to Virtual Servers > i) Set original Active to OFF > > 4) Visit localhost (or your.ip.add.ress from another computer) to view > your web2py site! :D > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "web2py-users" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/web2py?hl=en. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
