Django install-script post-setup

Hi,

I just installed Django on Virtualmin PRO using the auto script.

It mostly worked well.

Two questions please:

Where do I point the media paths in setting.py?

Admin uses media path /media/ and visiting this URL Apache shows a dir with css, img and js subdirectories. Where is this dir? Its not in public_html.

Where does the setup-script specify use of mod_python as handler, but excluding /media/ ?

I think the install script should set up a media dir with correct permissions and pre-fill settings.py with the paths. Ie a media dir in public_html.

Also, should the Django script put the project in user-root (~), not public_html?

2nd question:

For initial deployment testing and avoiding Apache restarts, where do I setup this?

"Just set MaxRequestsPerChild 1 in your httpd.conf file to force Apache to reload everything for each request." from http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/deployment/modpython/

Many thanks.

1. Install Django with Virtualmin setup script
a. Choose the correct project name (project_name)

2. Upload source files to public_html/project_name/

3. Edit settings.py with correct paths
a. (media directories as ..../public_html/content/)

4. Run â
