Hello,

 

Does anyone know why http://django.area51.bailey.cf/projects/ won't work? I've tried for ages but still not working!

 

Thanks in advance,

Bailey

[Sat Nov 18 15:41:29.007142 2017] [core:error] [pid 16181:tid 139824572905216] [client x.x.x.x:58347] AH00124: Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace., referer: http://django.area51.bailey.cf/projects/

That probably means you have conflicting .htaccess bouncing you back and forth.

[Bailey]

Can you direct me to a place where it teaches how to upload it to the website because I've found the one on the wiki very confusing and all I'm getting is a 500 error.

 

Thank you.

ps. This is the project created from the tutorial: https://area51.bailey.cf/hello/ or https://area51.bailey.cf/

Does this work better for you? https://www.helionet.org/index/topic/27585-django-on-tommy/?p=126077

[Bailey]

I've got it working at https://Bailey.cf/djangotest but can't get it to work on http://Bailey.cf , and suggestions?

[Krydos]

Https versus http shouldn't affect django in the slightest. Most likely you have conflicting .htaccess resulting in an infinite loop like I told you somewhere else on the forums.

[Bailey]

No I don't mean SSL, I can't get it to work on the root directory of Bailey.cf. I want to view it at https://Bailey.cf/ instead of https://Bailey.cf/djangotest

Sorry for the confusion

 

--DONE--

 

I've fixed it, thank you for your help!

My static urls aren't working, any reason why?

[Krydos]

Example url?

[Bailey]

https://bailey.cf/projects/ , the style.css won't load, it's easier to use "inspect" to see that it won't load.

It works offline

[Krydos]

Did you add the projects directory to the .htaccess file to prevent it from processing it through dispatch.wsgi?

[Bailey]

no? How would I do that?

[Krydos]

The django wiki page http://wiki.helionet.org/Django has an example of two static resources directories: media and admin_media.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(media/.*)$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^(admin_media/.*)$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^(hello/dispatch\.wsgi/.*)$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ hello/hello/dispatch.wsgi/$1 [QSA,PT,L]

The [L] means last so when that rule is matched it stop going down the line. Since it stops before it forces everything to be processed through dispatch.wsgi it is served statically. Likewise if your request already has dispatch.wsgi in it it doesn't tack another dispatch.wsgi on there. Finally everything else is forced to go through dispatch.wsgi. To add another static directory just copy the media or admin_media line and replace it with the name of your directory.

[Bailey]

Oh yeah, I know about Rewrite and the flags but I dont have an actual static directory. I used the Django tutorial to create the polls but I named it projects

[Bailey]

"django.contrib.staticfiles" provides a convenience management command for gathering static files in a single directory so you can serve them easily.

Set the

STATIC_ROOT

setting to the directory from which you’d like to serve these files, for example:

STATIC_ROOT = "/var/www/example.com/static/"

Run the collectstatic management command:

$ python manage.py collectstatic

This will copy all files from your static folders into the STATIC_ROOT directory.

 

Had to do this to store static files and get them to work when they are uploaded
