How to deploy on nginx webserver using uwsgi?
I'm trying from quite a few days installing askbot on my nginx powered server (no apache backend) and still unsuccessful. I'm also not really sure if uwsgi is working correctly or not. I tried "make" on uwsgi (http://projects.unbit.it/downloads/uwsgi-latest.tar.gz) but received some errors.
I'm also eyeing on this feature, http://bugs.askbot.org/issues/105
Edit: I want to install askbot as a standalone application.

Steps for Nginx + Wsgi setup.
rename the django.wsgi to askbot_wsgi.py
Use this nginx config. modified with your values.
For uwsgi I preffer running it with supervisor with this conf
Restart all the services and see if it works if don't check the logs.
I'll prepare a more detailed guide for the oficial documentation but with this three steps and configuration files and futher reading here for more in depth information. If you have troubles with this just add a comment to the answer.

rornvi ( 2012-05-11 04:45:20 -0500 )editI needed to install python-dev package, and now uwsgi installs perfectly. Where can I find the production.ini file of uwsgi of askbot? Isn't there any index.html file in python? What else do I need to configure in nginx to deploy the askbot?
