lighttpd is a light-weight asynchronous Web server commonly used for serving

static files. It supports FastCGI natively, though, and thus is a good choice

Running Django on a shared-hosting provider
|

===========================================
|

Running Django on a shared-hosting provider with Apache
|
||||
=======================================================
|
||||
|
||||
For many users on shared-hosting providers, you aren't able to run your own
|
||||
server daemons nor do they have access to the httpd.conf of their webserver.
|
||||
However, it is still possible to run Django using webserver-spawned processes.
|
||||
Many shared-hosting providers don't allow you to run your own server daemons or
|
||||
edit the ``httpd.conf`` file. In these cases, it's still possible to run Django
|
||||
using Web server-spawned processes.
|
||||
|
||||
.. admonition:: Note
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using webserver-managed processes, there's no need for you
|
||||
to start the FastCGI server on your own. Apache will spawn a number
|
||||
of processes, scaling as it needs to.
|
||||
If you're using Web server-spawned processes, as explained in this section,
|
||||
there's no need for you to start the FastCGI server on your own. Apache
|
||||
will spawn a number of processes, scaling as it needs to.

Restarting the spawned server
|
||||
-----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
If you change the code of your site, to make apache re-load your django
|
||||
application, you do not need to restart the server. Simply re-upload or
|
||||
edit your ``mysite.fcgi`` in such a way that the timestamp on the file
|
||||
will change. When apache sees that the file has been updated, it will
|
||||
restart your django application for you.
|
||||
If you change any Python code on your site, you'll need to tell FastCGI the
|
||||
code has changed. But there's no need to restart Apache in this case. Rather,
|
||||
just reupload ``mysite.fcgi``, or edit the file, so that the timestamp on the
|
||||
file will change. When Apache sees the file has been updated, it will restart
|
||||
your Django application for you.
