Having both nginx and uwsgi on webfaction is now useless. This is a quick sequence you can run on debian too: wget http://projects.unbit.it/downloads/uwsgi-1.0.4.tar.gz tar zxvf uwsgi-1.0.4.tar.gz cd uwsgi-1.0.4 make if all goes well run uWSGI ./uwsgi --http-socket :8080 --chdir <path_to_webp2y> --module wsgihandler point your browser to port 8080 on localhost and you should see your app For webfaction substitute :8080 with the assigned port -- Roberto De Ioris http://unbit.it
