Running a Troggle server
------------------------
For high volume use, Troggle should be run using a web server like apache. However, a quick way to get started is to use the development server built into Django.
For high volume use, Troggle should be run using a web server like apache. However, a quick way to get started is to use the development server built into Django. This is limited though: directory
redirection needs apache.
To do this, run "python manage.py runserver" from the troggle directory.
Running a Troggle server with Apache
------------------------------------
Troggle also needs these aliases to be configured. These are set in
/home/expo/config/apache/expo.conf
on the expo server.
At least these need setting:
DocumentRoot /home/expo/expoweb
WSGIScriptAlias / /home/expo/troggle/wsgi.py
Alias /expofiles /home/expo/expofiles
Alias /photos /home/expo/webphotos
Alias /map /home/expo/expoweb/map
Alias /javascript /usr/share/javascript
Alias /static/ /home/expo/static/
ScriptAlias /repositories /home/expo/config/apache/services/hgweb/hgweb.cgi
(The last is just for mercurial which will be remoived during 2020).
Unlike the "runserver" method, apache requires a restart before it will use
any changed files:
apache2ctl stop
apache2ctl start
