Here's the section of the code that is complaining about the file permissions:

site-packages/django/core/servers/basehttp.py:

if not os.path.exists(file_path):
status = '404 NOT FOUND'
headers = {'Content-type': 'text/plain'}
output = ['Page not found: %s' % file_path]
else:
try:
fp = open(file_path, 'rb')
except IOError:
status = '401 UNAUTHORIZED'
headers = {'Content-type': 'text/plain'}
output = ['Permission denied: %s' % file_path]

Perhaps the admin files are not world-readable? Try making them readable first as a quick test.

What does the above command produce exactly? Also, what's the output of this command:

echo %path%

How are you running django-admin.py when not using the absolute path? It looks like you have setup it up correctly.

Hi,

You'll just have to use lower level python socket routines to achieve your goal. Check out this page to get started:

Django is a fairly newer server-side product. You'd have better luck looking for a NAS that supports mod_python than Django, which is all you need to get started. Checkout this post:

Glad it's working now. I agree that the the transition from Django's built-in server to Apache could use some instructions.

The error you're getting is most likely a bug in Django's code. Be sure to refresh your local copy from the repository.

Hi,

A 404 most likely indicates missing template files. I noticed you're missing the template path in TEMPLATE_DIRS. Perhaps that's the issue.

Did you enable mod_env in httpd.conf? There should be a LoadModule line. Try

httpd -l|grep env

You should see something like this:

mod_env.c
mod_setenvif.c

Hi,

If the helper functions are lightweight and manipulate the class' objects directly, then you could include them in the model. Otherwise, think about grouping them in a helper library directory.
