I’m just starting to learn Django, building a project on my computer, running Windows

  • 0

I’m just starting to learn Django, building a project on my computer, running Windows 7 64-bit, Python 2.7, Django 1.3.

Basically whatever I write, it loads in Chrome and Firefox instantly. But for IE (version 9), it just stalls there, and does nothing. I can load up “http://127.0.0.1:8000” on IE and leave the computer on for hours and it doesn’t load. Sometimes, when I refresh a couple of times or restart IE it’ll work. If I change something in the code, again, Chrome and Firefox reflects changes instantly, whereas IE doesn’t – if it loads the page at all.

What is going on? I’m losing my mind here….

    It might be related to this issue:
    https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/16099

    Essentially, the dev server isn’t multithreaded, and if the browser opens a connection and then tries a second connection to actually get the data, it can hang forever.

    Edit:

    Also, see this issue:
    https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/15178

    If you can provide a way to reproduce the issue, we may be able to find a fix.

    Also, if you could try the latest development version and see if that fixes it, we recently committed a new patch that adds multithreading capability to the runserver command.
