Deploying GeoDjango
===================
.. warning::
GeoDjango uses the GDAL geospatial library which is
not thread safe at this time. Thus, it is *highly* recommended
to not use threading when deploying -- in other words, use an
appropriate configuration of Apache or the prefork method
when using FastCGI through another Web server.
Apache
======
In this section there are some example ``VirtualHost`` directives for
when deploying using ``mod_wsgi``, which is now officially the recommended
way to deploy Django applications with Apache.
As long as ``mod_wsgi`` is configured correctly, it does not
matter whether the version of Apache is prefork or worker.
.. note::
The ``Alias`` and ``Directory`` configurations in the examples
below use an example path to a system-wide installation folder of Django.
Substitute in an appropriate location, if necessary, as it may be
different than the path on your system.
``mod_wsgi``
------------
Example::
<VirtualHost *:80>
WSGIDaemonProcess geodjango user=geo group=geo processes=5 threads=1
WSGIProcessGroup geodjango
WSGIScriptAlias / /home/geo/geodjango/world.wsgi
Alias /media/ "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/media/"
<Directory "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/contrib/admin/media/">
Order allow,deny
Options Indexes
Allow from all
IndexOptions FancyIndexing
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
.. warning::
If the ``WSGIDaemonProcess`` attribute ``threads`` is not set to ``1``, then
Apache may crash when running your GeoDjango application. Increase the
number of ``processes`` instead.
For more information, please consult Django's
:doc:`mod_wsgi documentation </howto/deployment/wsgi/modwsgi>`.
