Hello, Jari. I'd recommend using twod.wsgi instead: http://bitbucket.org/2degrees/twod.wsgi/
It's very stable, full-feature and truly WSGI compliant. We've been using heavily over the last 2 months. It started from this: http://groups.google.com/group/django-developers/browse_thread/thread/08c7ffeee7b9343c We'll release it officially soon, once I finish the documentation. With twod,wsgi, you'd do the following: ==== from twod.wsgi import call_wsgi_app from paste.fileapp import FileApp def django_view(file_to_serve): return call_wsgi_app(FileApp(file_to_serve)) ==== But note you'd need to use twod.wsgi's handler, which in a simple sub- class of Django's WSGI handler. And because Django doesn't allow you to use a different handler nor WSGI middleware in the development server, you wouldn't be able to use that server. That's no big deal, because you can use any server, including PasteScript (the one used by all the other WSGI frameworks; which I personally believe outperforms Django's). So, you could use the following Paste file: ==== # whatever.ini [DEFAULT] debug = True [server:devserver] use = egg:Paste#http port = 8000 [app:main] # Dev mode use = twod.wsgi django_settings_module = yourpackage.settings [app:deploy] use = main set debug = False ==== And insted of running "manage.py runserver", you'd run "paster serve whatever.ini". Or, run just "./whatever.ini" if you put the following at the top of the file: ==== #!/usr/bin/env paster [exe] command = serve reload = true ==== Then, to deploy the application, instead of setting DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE and importing Django's WSGI handler, you'd do the following: ==== from paste.deploy import loadapp application = loadapp("config:/path/to/whatever.ini#deploy") ==== That's it. Please stop by our Google Group (2degrees-dev) if you have any question, since I don't normally keep an eye on this mailing list. I understand it might seem more complicated, but it's not really complicated. The problem is the need to bypass Django's handler, which is required in order to make your application trully interoperable with WSGI software. But I am 100% confident nothing will break in your application. If it does (which is very very very unlikely), please fill a bug report.
