Recently I have started a Django server on Azure Web App Service, now I want to add a usage of "ChromoDriver" for web scraping, I have noticed that for that I need to install some additional Linux packages (not python) on the machine. the problem is that it gets erased on every deployment, does it mean that I should switch to Docker ?
Container works, but you can also try to pull down the additional packages in the custom start up file without messing around the machine after the deployment

I generally deploy django web applications in Ubuntu.
But currently we are using cpanel(not looking for alternatives) which doesnt work in Ubuntu. so want to know if moving to centos for cpanel is worth ?
Because my fear is, if we move to centos server, do we have to face some complex issues(with django deployment) that we might take lot of time(we are good at Ubuntu).
Deploying on centos is essentialy the same. You will probably want to run django in gunicorn and supervisor watching over the process. And nginx for serving static files.
I have done deployment on CentOS aswell as on Ubuntu and I didn't encounter any problems.
You can use the below link to help you in deployment

and if you had any issues in permission you can disable SE-LINUX
I am learning python and Django now. I have a question related to deploying Django project on windows 7. I know how to start the test server in django and see the project. But I have to do start the server manually every time I restart the PC. Also I have to keep the terminal window open.
Consider the below scenario for php projects.
We copy and paste the php files in htdocs or www folder in apache server and access them using the respected url. Web Server is running in the background. We dont have to start the server on windows restart.
Is something similar possible with Django on apache or any other server?
If yes, how should I go about it?
Thanks in advance.
For anyone stumbling around for an answer to a similar problem with deploying Django on a Windows server, here is a guide
Deploy Django with Apache and mod_wsgi on Windows Server 2019
To have Apache24 service automatically run on startup, make the changes in Windows Services dialog.
I am quite computer-illiterate, but I have managed to utilize the Django framework on my own machine. I have had an account on Amazon Web Service (AWS) for some time, but it appeared rather complex to set-up and to make use of, so I put it of for a while. Then I decided to give it a try, and it was not so hard as I first thought to load a AMI and connect to the server with PuTTY. But since I were already using BitNami's Django-Stack, I decided to take a look at their hosting offer (which builds on AWS). Since they appeared to offer "one-click deployment", I set up a new server through their interface. But then, it seems like the "one-click deployment"-promise is with regard to the server itself. There does not seem to be any interface for deploying Django projects through their site. Having used PuTTY already, and adding WinSCP to my machine, I can acceess the server and load my Django-code unto the server. But then I am lost. The documentation seems a bit thin (look here).
The crux of this is the following: Can anyone make this part of the process more understandable. I.e., how to deploy a Django project on a Linux server with Apache/mod_WSGI?
The other question is: I want to use Postgres. Am I free to install this on the server. Should I opt for EBM (EMB?) for this, or what is the downside of not having EBM?
I hope I am not too unworthy of your attention, thanks!
how to deploy a Django project on a Linux server with Apache/mod_WSGI The Bitnami AMI already comes with all this configured. Once installed try going to the EC2 public url on the default 8000 port and you will see the demo django project setup there. You can add your own project once you have logged into the machine via putty check the /home/bitnami/ directory for the demo project. Copy your project, configure your database The other question is: I want to use Postgres. Am I free to install this on the server Postgres and Mysql are already installed the same way you would do on your local machine. The in your project do ./manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:9000 since the 8000 port is already running another application.
I want to configure the cloudfoundry environment correctly and test some small application. If any one know, please help me to configure this environment correctly and let me know any use full reference document is available for this, thanks a lot.
I have registered with cloudfoundry and got downloaded following stuffs:
1) micro-1.2.0.zip
2) VMware-Player-4.0.2-591240.x86_64.bundle
3) springsource-tool-suite-2.9.1.RELEASE-e3.7.2-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz
You have everything you need. In short you will need to:
Install Ruby and then VMC or STS plugin for CF
Install VMWare player and run the micro instance within it. Basically you will open the *.vmx file in micro through VMWare player. Your machine has to support and enable virtualization for this
Do necessary configurations and validate your CF with token received online when you created account and domain
open vmc and change target to point to local CF use command "vmc target CFM_ADDRESS"
Deploy and test your application
