Gunicorn, nginx, django, inside of a docker container. Gunicorn successfully runs on port 80 but nginx fails
I'm trying to set up a simple blogging site that I wrote using the django framework. The website works except that it isn't serving static files. I imagine that's because nginx isn't running. However, when I configure it to run on any port other than 80 I get the following error: nginx: [emerg] bind() to 172.17.0.1:9000 failed (99: Cannot assign requested address) When I run it on a port that is already being used by gunicorn I get the following error: nginx: [emerg] bind() to 0.0.0.0:80 failed (98: Address already in use) My nginx configuration file is as follows: upstream django { server 127.0.0.1:8080; } server { listen 172.17.0.1:9000; server_name my.broken.blog; index index.html; location = /assets/favicon.ico { access_log off; log_not_found off; } location /assets { autoindex on; alias /var/www/html/mysite/assets; } location / { autoindex on; uwsgi_pass unix:///run/uwsgi/django/socket; include /var/www/html/mysite/mysite/uwsgi_params; proxy_pass http://unix:/run/gunicorn.sock; } } -
Django admin: "How to properly display multi-layered relations?"
I'm new to Django framework and trying to build a math test application. Idea is to generate a test from a pool of questions. I have a following DB entities: class TestResult(models.Model): user = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, null=True, blank=True) score = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True) class Meta: db_table = 'test_results' class Question(models.Model): text = models.CharField(unique=True, max_length=255) type = models.IntegerField(blank=True, null=True) class Meta: db_table = 'questions' class Answer(models.Model): question = models.ForeignKey(Questions, on_delete=models.CASCADE) text = models.CharField(max_length=255) is_correct = models.BooleanField() class Meta: db_table = 'answers' class AskedQuestion(models.Model): question = models.ForeignKey(Questions, on_delete=models.CASCADE) test = models.ForeignKey('TestResults', on_delete=models.CASCADE) class Meta: db_table = 'asked_questions' class GivenAnswer(models.Model): answer = models.ForeignKey(Answers, on_delete=models.CASCADE) test = models.ForeignKey(TestResults, on_delete=models.CASCADE) class Meta: db_table = 'given_answers' I am able to display AskedQuestion and GivenAnswer as 2 separate StackedInline for TestResult. But I want to display Question + Answer pairs when I navigate to TestResult page in Django admin. Any suggestions would be appreciated. -

I have below code to open connection to mongo cluster deployed in altas under django view. def homePage(request): context = {} import pymongo client = pymongo.MongoClient(<connection str>) db = client.foo return render(request, 'Home/index.html', context) I see for each request it opens a new connection which is adding delay to load page.

PermissionDenied return to home
For my blog on all the relevant views such as delete and update I have this if request.user.id != post.author_id: raise PermissionDenied() This is working as expected however it just sends the user to a page that says 403 forbidden. I would rather just redirect the user to the homepage. Would it be insecure or poor practice to do something like return HttpResponseRedirect('/') or is it fine as is and I am overthinking it -
item['total_price'] = item['price'] * item['quantity'] KeyError: 'quantity'
Good afternoon, I'm writing a store on django, but the following problem occurred when going to the shopping cart page: item['total_price'] = item['price'] * item['quantity'] KeyError: 'quantity'.

How to pass django context values to the javascript variable?

How to host Django website on oracle cloud virtual machine?
I am trying to host a Django Project on Oracle cloud virtual machine running Ubuntu. As I am not too experienced with virtual machines, I was following along with this tutorial: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-django-with-postgres-nginx-and-gunicorn-on-ubuntu-16-04 What I have succeeded in doing so far is to create postgresql database and starting django project and connecting the database to the django project, and applying migrations. However, as per the tutorial, I run python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000 and it appears that the website has been deployed, but upon entering public ip into browser, it says could not connect to the ip. Any help? I have added ingress rules 8000/udp and 8000/tcp into the subnet but still no luck -
Django Custom Password Reset Form widget not working

I'm not sure what I've missed. Thank you. -

Flask & MySQL connector in Python
I am using MySQL in a Python written backend without an ORM. I have a bunch of classes that provide database access services using mysqlconnector and these services may be used by the same or different API routes. They are provided as member functions using a single MySQLConnection and MySQLCursor object that is initialized in a constructor and then passed around. Is it possible to make this thread-safe without altering the design too much i.e. without requiring opening a new connection for every member function that accesses the database? -
Python Azure SDK - Incorrect datetime format inferred when reading tabular data from blobstore with from_delimited_files()
I am using the Azure Python SDK to read a tabular dataset from a Blob Store as follows: df = Dataset.Tabular.from_delimited_files(path=[DataPath(ds, blobstore_dir + 'tabular_data.csv')], separator=',', header=True) The data has four datetime columns, one of the columns reads in with no problem because there are instances where the month-day order is not ambiguous, but the other three are being inferred incorrectly as "month-day" instead of "day-month". When reading in the data I get the following warning: UserWarning: Ambiguous datetime formats inferred for columns ['Period Start', 'Period End', 'Extracted At'] are resolved as "month-day". Desired format can be specified by set_column_types. I have attempted to set the column types as below, and have tried a few different formats but all I end up with is NULL in place of all the values. df = Dataset.Tabular.from_delimited_files( path=[DataPath(ds, blobstore_dir + 'tabular_data.csv')], separator=',', header=True, set_column_types={'Period Start': DataType.to_datetime("%d-%m-%Y %H:%M:%S"), 'Period End': DataType.to_datetime("%d-%m-%Y %H:%M:%S"), 'Extracted At': DataType.to_datetime("%d-%m-%Y %H:%M:%S")}) The documentation for from_delimited_files() is here Can anyone tell me how to force from_delimited_files() to resolve the ambiguous datetimes as day-month or tell me how to use set_column_types correctly? I've worked around it temporarily by inserting a dummy row with a non-ambiguous datetime. -
Files in media directory being routed through the dynamic link gets blocked

values_list query is returning the foreign keys pk rather than it's value

How do I get the actual name string of Category? -
Unused space in sqlite
I ran sqlite3_analyzer in order to try to understand why a database consumes much more disk space than expected, even after using VACUUM. The output shows that there are many tables with extra pages used for seemingly no reason. Here is an example: *** Table ACCOUNT_EMAILCONFIRMATION and all its indices *********************** Percentage of total database...................... 2.6% Number of entries................................. 0 Bytes of storage consumed......................... 12288 Bytes of payload.................................. 0 0.0% Bytes of metadata................................. 24 0.20% Average payload per entry......................... 0.0 Average unused bytes per entry.................... 0.0 Average metadata per entry........................ 0.0 Maximum payload per entry......................... 0 Entries that use overflow......................... 0 Primary pages used................................ 3 Overflow pages used............................... 0 Total pages used.................................. 3 Unused bytes on primary pages..................... 12264 99.80% Unused bytes on overflow pages.................... 0 Unused bytes on all pages......................... 12264 99.80% Here, three pages, each 4,096 bytes are used to store zero entries. The result is that a tiny database takes hundreds of KB. This makes me suspect that the database size might quickly explode when I put my Django website into production. So, why does this happen? -
Django registration form exceeds username length. [error]
I have a custom user model that has a username field with a max_length=50.
