Re: Hosting tutorials

Hi,
i am also new to django. I have put alive my first django project on
linode VPS.
First I have created on my development machine the virtual box with
last ubuntu. Then I have put alive the django project following
instruction on
https://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/DjangoAndNginx
i.e. I have used nginx as it seemed from newgroup posting easier to
install for newbies.
After I have done it on vbox I have bought linode account and repeated
the sequence there.

All in all, in two days I have put the project alive. Probably not all
is done as it should be, but it is live.

The most time I have spent is on how to share the folder between vbox
and windows host. The not documented hint (at least i did not find
anywhere) is that the root user of ubuntu shall be part of vboxusers
group, so I have created the group with
groupadd vboxusers
and added the user to the group
sudo usermod -a -G vboxusers cikic
After that I could use the vbox additions; i.e. I could map one folder
for data exchanging.
