Revision history  [back]

I've failed so far to install askbot on Ubuntu 10.10 using Apache and a MySql db. I am currently running OSQA installed by following those instructions : http://wiki.osqa.net/display/docs/Ubuntu+with+Apache+and+MySQL . In fact, Askbot works by running :

python manage.py runserver localhost:8000

But I would like to deploy it on my apache server alongside along with OSQA for testing purpose.

Here my default configuration file for Apache :

# Must be readable and writable by apache
