I just built a small app with the very cool and minimalistic web.py.
I am using a cheap shared hosting package (at WebFaction) and have installed web.py via virtualenv. I cannot use the system python since I need additional packages which I’m not allowed to install into the system python.
So now I start my app with
/home/me/mypython/python myapp.py <myport>
It feels like a cumbersome solution, and I’m not sure how much traffic this setup can take. Any general hints?
Thanks in advance
Is there a reason you’re not using fastcgi? That’s probably considerably better than trying to use some high-numbered port, particularly since your webhost may not be very happy about that at all. There are a few notes on doing that (on dreamhost, but it should be similar for you) in this post:
