OK, now this is just getting weird. Has anyone set up their web.py application using wsgi on nginx? I havent even started trying yet because I just don't understand.
As far as I can tell, nginx is pretty easy. I have it up and running, giving me it's home page. Here's where it gets confusing... the evidently many meanings of "uwsgi". 1. nginx has a build in module called uwsgi. * http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpUwsgiModule* (This page warns that this module is different than the *uWSGI server*.) 2. There is a server (apparently stands alone) called uWSGI.* http://projects.unbit.it/uwsgi/* 3. a web.py cookbook *http://webpy.org/cookbook/mod_wsgi-nginx* talks about mod_wsgi in nginx, which apparently isn't a standard module and must be compiled on the target platform (yuck) There are even more confusing options out there, like using fast-cgi instead, the list goes on... This is all so very confusing. Here's what I require, and I'm asking for advice. 1. This is a production application - the main reason why I'm not using the builtin server. 2. I've been "encouraged" to use nginx instead of apache, but it's not required. 3. What is required is a clean, simple and repeatable install process. (these environments are in the cloud, so they will be stood up and torn down often. I really can't afford messing around with having to compile, install stuff that isn't easily done with apt-get, etc. The install process on a vanilla ubuntu server must be do-able with a single script, and (yes I'm about to say it) ... be foolproof.) Some things in life "just work." Installing this must "just work." So, in everyones opinion ... what's the best, clean and simple way to take my web.py application and serve it with a rock solid web server? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web.py" group.
