Deploying GeoDjango
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
GeoDjango uses the GDAL geospatial library which is
|
|
not thread safe at this time. Thus, it is *highly* recommended
|
|
to not use threading when deploying -- in other words, use an
|
|
appropriate configuration of Apache or the prefork method
|
|
when using FastCGI through another Web server.
|
|
|
|
Apache
|
|
======
|
|
In this section there are some example ``VirtualHost`` directives for
|
|
when deploying using ``mod_wsgi``, which is now officially the recommended
|
|
way to deploy Django applications with Apache.
|
|
As long as ``mod_wsgi`` is configured correctly, it does not
|
|
matter whether the version of Apache is prefork or worker.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
The ``Alias`` and ``Directory`` configurations in the examples
|
|
below use an example path to a system-wide installation folder of Django.
|
|
Substitute in an appropriate location, if necessary, as it may be
|
|
different than the path on your system.
|
|
|
|
``mod_wsgi``
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Example::
|
|
|
|
<VirtualHost *:80>
|
|
WSGIDaemonProcess geodjango user=geo group=geo processes=5 threads=1
|
|
WSGIProcessGroup geodjango
|
|
WSGIScriptAlias / /home/geo/geodjango/world.wsgi
|
|
|
|
Alias /media/ "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/media/"
|
|
<Directory "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/media/">
|
|
Order allow,deny
|
|
Options Indexes
|
|
Allow from all
|
|
IndexOptions FancyIndexing
|
|
</Directory>
|
|
|
|
</VirtualHost>
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
If the ``WSGIDaemonProcess`` attribute ``threads`` is not set to ``1``, then
|
|
Apache may crash when running your GeoDjango application. Increase the
|
|
number of ``processes`` instead.
