For anyone with free time: Trying to learn how to replace PHP with Python, failing terribly.
- by MALON
I want give web development using Python a shot, but I'm failing hard. I don't even know if I CAN run Python. The webpage for my web host says it supports all kinds of stuff, including Python. I've never touched anything CGI related and this does not appear to be a noob friendly area.
Below is all the information I could think of that might be useful:
Shared host: Yes
Webhost: dibbsonhosting.com
Server OS: linux
Python installed: Yes (or so says the webhost)
mod_python installed: Don't Know
WSGI installed: Don't Know
Access to http.conf: No
Terminal access: No
Cpanel: Yes
FTP: Yes
Django: downloaded latest stable release, not uploaded anywhere, not
sure where to put it.
DB: MySQL 5.x
I really want to use Python for web development! Thanks!
