I have a problem with starting graphite web interface, using apache2. I get 500 Internal error, the screenshot of my log is below. I am new to this website and also to this software. My question might be too simple but, I have spent a lot of time on this. Thanks..
error log:
It looks like the database has not yet been created. You can do so by running:
sudo -u _graphite graphite-manage syncdb --noinput
and that should clear up the 500 error. This is a minimum to get started with Graphite, using the SQLite database. It is possible to configure an alternate database in the local_settings.py file, in which case the above command is not necessary. But with the default configuration, which uses SQLite as the back-end, this command should get you past the error.

The web application I'm working on in Django ran into a bug when I attempted modifying the data type of a field(column). I got some advice to drop/delete the table which didn't end up very well. Now I'm stuck. I tried creating a new table manually but its still giving me the same error. I tried changing the name of the previous table from its models.py, but that didn't work either. The website is giving me this error, 'Server Error (500),' as it is in production mode and the debug is set to false. I've tried. 'python manage.py makemigrations,' but it says no changes. Also, 'python manage.py migrate,' but that gives an error.
I think this is a simple fix, but I've deployed quite a few Django apps to Heroku and I still can't figure out what's going on.
Accessing https://dundjeon-finder.herokuapp.com/ gives me a 500 error when using the browser/curl, but if I shell into the app using heroku run ./manage.py shell I can render the views no problem. My logs aren't telling me anything (just that the response is 500) despite DEBUG being set to True, and Sentry isn't receiving an error (it has previously when the database env variable was set badly), so I'm assuming it's something to do with the way the request works.
The repo is public, any help would be much appreciated! The settings file is here.
Well it was because of using asgi instead of wsgi. I'm not sure why that caused the errors, but will do some more searching.
i purchased an outsource service to develop a web site in django to be deployed in heroku and AWS S3 (boto package).
Unfortunately the developer did not comment the code, despite it was asked, and left the project uncompleted for following up with a bigger client.
I've hired another django 'expert' to fix a part which was not developed, and he want to (over)charge for deployment testing, which i think should be a normal matter for good practices! i am working on my own budject, and need to work it out myself.
I was able to make the project run locally and make myself the frontend templates which were not fully developed, but I am having issues in deploying the code on my own staging environment.
I set up a staging environment under my credential to check if everything is ok, before pushing to production.
I think I almost get there, though:
heroku run python manage.py migrate --all --noinput --app my-app-staging
generate in the console:
Running `python manage.py migrate --all --noinput` attached to terminal... up, run.4833

I checked my settings and they look ok:
i check AWS S3 bucket and it is able to write there;
settings in heroku console display that the db has been created.
I followed:
Heroku created table but when I'll migrate, he says that doesn't created
but it looks my locals.py are ok too, and in my local git branch .gitignore will exclude db.sqlite
My git and heroku ssh keys have been generated and added, so i dont' think it is an issue of authentification.
How could i check that the db is properly connected to django project and I am not invalidated?
Could you please help in debriefing to understand what this error means and how to solve it?
So much thank you.
It sounds like you might not have created the initial South migration tables on your staging server. This is actually done using syncdb:
Once South is added in, you’ll need to run ./manage.py syncdb to make the South migration-tracking tables (South doesn’t use migrations for its own models, for various reasons).
To run this on Heroku, you'll probably want to use something like
heroku run python manage.py syncdb
Once this is done, you should be able to move forward with the South commands.
I installed Django, and it works. I set it up so it uses my mysql database, and I started a project. So far so good.
I followed the tutorial on setting up your first Django app over at
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/intro/tutorial01/
It is a tutorial over setting up a pre-existing poll app where everything has practically been built for you. The database structure has even been handled.
I ran:
python manage.py startapp polls
python manage.py sql polls
python manage.py syncdb
I didn't receive any kind of success message so I went into my phpmyadmin, and hooray! There are new tables and rows in my database.
Their tutorial then told me to run:
python manage.py shell
and that I'd see some database stuff, but I didn't. Why could this be? I ignored it and went on to step two. I still hadn't set DEBUG in my settings.py to False so I did. Only to get a 500 error.
After some digging I read I needed to add:
ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['my ip address'];
I did this and now after running:
python manage.py runserver myip:8000
When I try to access Django in my browser I get a
Not Found
The requested URL / was not found on this server.
Obviously / changes to a different location when navigating to those places as well, but the point is I get a 404 no matter what.
So I look at my terminal and I have a yellow message in my terminal that says.
"GET / HTTP/1.1" 404 74
and there is 1 message like this for each place I tried to access.
I'm thinking there is a Python package that I don't have installed on my server?
I do not want to use ALLOWED_HOSTS ['*'] I read that this is bad practice. I did try it and it produces the same results as using my ip address in place of the * (I just wanted to add that extra piece of info in case it helps)
If you want to use the database shell, you should run the dbshell command instead of shell as in your post, like this:
python manage.py dbshell
If you run shell, you get a Python shell, where you can easily import and inspect the Python objects of your project.
On your local PC, it's better to have DEBUG = True in your settings.py. That way you don't need to bother about ALLOWED_HOSTS, because in debug mode all hosts are allowed. Secondly, when you get a 404 error in debug mode, the page will show you the valid URLs that you can try.
The Django tutorial certainly works. The only way it won't work for you is if you missed a step or mistyped something somewhere. If you start over and pay extra attention, I think it will work.
I know there are a lot of questions floating around there relating to similar issues, but I think I have a specific flavor which hasn't been addressed yet. I'm attempting to create my local postgresql database so that I can do local development in addition to pushing to Heroku.
I have found basic answers on how to do this, for example (which I think is a wee bit outdated):
'#DATABASES = {'default': dj_database_url.config(default='postgres://fooname:barpass#localhost/dbname')}'
This solves the "ENGINE" is not configured error. However, when I run 'python manage.py syncdb' I get the following error:
'OperationalError: FATAL: password authentication failed for user "foo"
FATAL: password authentication failed for user "foo"'
This happens for all conceivable combinations of username/pass. So my ubuntu username/pass, my heroku username/pass, etc. Also this happens if I just try to take out the Heroku component and build it locally as if I was using postgresql while following the tutorial. Since I don't have a database yet, what the heck do those username/pass values refer to? Is the problem exactly that, that I need to create a database first? If so how?
As a side note I know I could get the db from heroku using the process outlined here: Should I have my Postgres directory right next to my project folder? If so, how?
But assuming I were to do so, where would the new db live, how would django know how to access it, and would I have the same user/pass problems?
Thanks a bunch.
Assuming you have postgres installed, connect via pgadmin or psql and create a new user. Then create a new database and with your new user as the owner. Make sure you can connect via psql with the new user into to the database. you will then need to set up an env variable in your postactivate file in your virtualenv's bin folder and save it. Here is what I have for the database:
export DATABASE_URL='postgres://{{username}}:{{password}}#localhost:5432/{{database}}'
Just a note: adding this value to your postactivate doesn't do anything. The file is not run upon saving. You will either need to run this at the $ prompt, or simply deactivate and active your virtualenv.
Your settings.py should read from this env var:
DATABASES = {'default': dj_database_url.config()}
You will then configure Heroku with their CLI tool to use your production database when deployed. Something like:
heroku config:set DATABASE_URL={{production value here}}
(if you don't have Heroku's CLI tool installed, you need to do it)
If you need to figure how exactly what that value you need for your production database, you can get it by logging into heroku's postgresql subdomain (at the time this is being written, it's https://postgres.heroku.com/) and selecting the db from the list and looking at the "Connection Settings : URL" value.
This way your same settings.py value will work for both local and production and you keep your usernames/passwords out of version control. They are just env config values.
