Re: Stuck with Django on a Synology Diskstation

Dear nitish

Thanks for your reply. I guess it is kind of a linux that Synology uses, but it is different from other distros. So many advice on the internet builds upon the ability to install packages via apt-get or ipkg, but both are not available here. Somehow (really only somehow) I got entware/opkg installed. But since then I have problems with the installations of most packages there.

Here are the results of my adaption of your suggested commands:

/opt/bin# ./opkg find httpd
/opt/bin#

So, it seems there is no httpd24 on this repo.

/opt/bin# ./opkg install apache
Package apache (2.4.37-2) installed in root is up to date.

/opt/bin# ./opkg install gcc
Package gcc (7.4.0-5) installed in root is up to date.

/opt/bin# sudo python3.5 -m pip install mod-wsgi
Collecting mod-wsgi

I guess there are many problems, but this is just a start.

Hi there

I am rather a newbie, but after some problems I got django installed on my Synology Diskstation. So, I ignored many other problems and am very happy that I built my very first, very simple app. And now I would like to move it from the development stage to the production stage. Obviously I should make a change to a distinct webserver. Synology offers nginx and apache 2.4. I installed both. And now I do not really know how to proceed. Out there, there are many instructions to use something called mod-wsgi. But I cannot install this from the package center of the Diskstation.

I also tried to get opkg working. And this did not turn out so well, too. Most packages return an error, when I try to install something. Before this gets too elusive, I would ask you for guidance and then I can provide you with the following error messages.

Best regards

MH
