I am trying to debug an issue that happens on our testing server. So how do I make it so that I can access our testing server when I start Django by typing:
python manage.py runserver
?
Does it have to pass through Apache? If so, I need to configure Apache somehow but I am not using mod_wsgi and so, don't know how to do this.
Thanks! :)
the test server runs its own web server. the defaul options starts a server on
http://127.0.0.1:8000/, which you can then open in your browser
you can specify an optional ip address/server using
manage.py runserver ip:port
using ip 0.0.0.0 for all network interfaces

I'm currently testing Django on Codenvy but I have difficulties to find out how to connect to the build-in development server of Django.
I added a server in the Workspace configuration with port 8000 and http protocole.
I added the following in the run command of Codenvy's project :
Commande line :
cd ${current.project.path} && python manage.py runserver
Preview :
http://${server.port.8000}
The run prompt provide me a url : http://nodexx.codenvy.io:xxxxx
Going to this URL print a message : ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED
I'm very new to all of this. Do you know what is missing ?
Django dev server by default accepts connections only from localhost. In order to access it from another machine, start runserver by binding it with an IP, or 0 for the app to be accessed from everywhere.
python manage.py runserver 0:8000
The above command runs the server in 8000 port, binding the network to 0.0.0.0, which means the app can be accessed from anywhere
We have a dev server with the internal hostname dev1.internal.blah.com running nginx. I'm trying to create a test Django project testproject from the Django tutorial on this server. I access this server by ssh-ing into it.
So on this server I installed Django, created a new directory, issued django-admin startproject mysite within it, then issued python manage.py runserver 8765 and got the
success message Starting development server at http://127.0.0.1:8765/
Now how would I access the http://127.0.0.1:8765 site from a browser? I tried using http://dev1.internal.blah.com:8765 but got a This site can't be reached error message.
If I try curl http://127.0.0.1:8765 from the terminal, I see the correct html being rendered.
The nginx www directory is located at /usr/share/nginx/html if it helps.
By default, Django development server runs on port 8000 on the IP address 127.0.0.1, but note that that IP address is accessible only from your own server.
To make the runserver viewable to others, use either its own IP address or 0.0.0.0. or :: with IPv6 enabled.
So, you should probably run it like this:
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8765
I am new to Django Project. I have my app moved to my production server and I have it run:

Django version 1.5.12, using settings 'website.settings'
Development server is running at http://127.0.0.1:8000/
Quit the server with CONTROL-C.
But it is a production server with an IP, eg: 119.237.27.131
So it can't be running at http://127.0.0.1:8000/
Then what should I do so that the app is running on http://119.237.27.131:8000/ instead?
Any ideas?
Btw, where is 'website.settings'?
EDIT:
When I check the app at http://119.237.27.131:8000/
I get this error:
This site can’t be reached
119.237.27.131 refused to connect.
If you start the development server without any parameters, the server will start at localhost:8000, but it can't be accessed from outside the machine. To allow that, you should start the server like this:
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
That will allow you to connect from another machine, on the machine's IP address, like http://119.237.27.131:8000/
A word of warning: the development server is not a production-ready server. You should use a WSGI server like Gunicorn or another tool to serve your application. Do not use the development server in a production setting, it's not safe!! Read more about that here.
I'm following the django tutorial: version 1.8, Ubuntu 10.04, python 3.4 in a virtual environment. I seem to create a django project (yatest) on my Ubuntu server just fine and I start the development server:
(v1)cj#drop1:~/www/yatest$ python manage.py runserver
Performing system checks...
System check identified no issues (0 silenced).

Django version 1.8.3, using settings 'yatest.settings'
Starting development server at http://127.0.0.1:8000/
Quit the server with CONTROL-C.
but when I browse to http://myserver:8000 all I get in response is 'ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE'.
This is the first part of the tutorial before an app is even created. At this early stage in the tutorial it doesn't mention any error log I can check. My telnet client doesn't say anything crashed, and 'ctl-c' will shutdown the server process with no complaints.
Using netstat -lntp I verified no other processes are using port 8000. I do not have Apache installed. I do have gunicorn and nginx installed but both are stopped and not in use yet in the tutorial.
I'm rather new to linux; I could use some help finding an error log or other debugging tools to solve this. I don't doubt I've missed some basic OS setting or something to enable TCP access, etc..
Thanks

Found my mistake. When starting a dev django server on dedicated server one MUST include the dedicated server's address in the command. This is not needed when launching a dev server on the same machine as your browser. So instead of
$python manage.py runserver
you have to run
$python manage.py runserver <server ip>:8000.
So this is my inglorious start on stack exchange. You saw nothing! :P
If you're running natively in an virtual envrionment, then you need to specify a port and address:
python manage.py runserver 127.0.0.1:8000
For containers, it's easiest to listen to all addresses:
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
For anybody using PyCharm in a docker environment, it's also worth knowing that PyCharm will override your docker-compose configuration to change the runserver command to bind to the port specified in the Host option in your Run/Debug Configurations window.
Make sure you set the Host to 0.0.0.0 and the port to 8000 if you want to use the debugger etc.
If you don't want the trouble to determine server ip (ie when you're using containers), you can listen to 0.0.0.0:8000
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
I have a ubuntu server hosting a web page driven by Python Django, I can access that page by using the following command:elinks http:// 127.0.0.1:8000.
Now if I want to access that same web page on a macbook sharing the same home router with my ubuntu server(local ip: 10.0.0.9), how would I do it? Typing in elinks http:// 10.0.0.9:8000 wouldn't work.
Thanks a lot,

Are you running the development server using manage.py?
If so, you should start the server using:
python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
This will allow the development server to be visited by ips on all interfaces instead of just localhost.
You need to serve it. There are a number of ways to do this, but my preferred method is to use Nginx as a reverse proxy server for gunicorn. This is a good tutorial for that.
