Django on Dreamhost - testing/sand box environment
- by elequ
I've been using webfaction for all my django needs for the last couple of years but have had a high traffic site fall in my lap that dreamhost are probably better suited to handling.
To set up and experiment with a site with webfaction there are your [user].webfactional.com accounts. Which is sweet.
Equivalently Dreamhost also offers [name].dreamhosters.com
Yet this doesn't seem to work with my database and this doesn't seem to be playing nice with setting up django or passenger_wsgi.
So I'm wondering if I'm interpreting the documentation correctly to suggest that in order to make a site that depends on passenger it needs to be running from an active domain. The documentation is really implicit, I'm baffled.
Has anyone set up a testing/sand box environment for django using dreamhost, or know how to?
