I want to run the django developement server localy and I don't want to use a full webserver.
So far I renamed manage.py to manage.pyw. Then in manage.pyw I call execute_from_command_line(['manage.py', 'runserver'])
In a batch file I then use "START pythonw manage.pyw"
The problem is, that I then cannot connect to the server even though in the taskmanager it says it's still running. When I start it using python instead, it runs, but the console window is visible.
I found a way to do this. I used the Windows Service Wrapper https://github.com/kohsuke/winsw to install python manage.py runserver as a service.

I am a beginner for django web development. Initially i created a project and an app. When i try to run the django server using the python manage.py runserver command it loads for sometime and i get no response.
I am using Pycharm 2019 community edition
You mention you are using PyCharm. Can you use your terminal window within PyCharm (normally at the bottom, possible toggle view with Alt+F12). In that terminal window try typing python manage.py runserver and see if that gives you an error.
I have a Djnago web application on IIS 6 on one server. Is there a way that from this website I call another python script that is on another server in such a way that that script just run itself there?
Calling or Runnig that script in the usual way as internet says, is not working.
I always get the error of os.getcwd() and it also doesn't allow to change that directory.
I just want to run that python script there on that server from this server.
Can anyone help?
Normally, I would recommend using a framework like fabric or winrm if you want to run a python script on another server. Those frameworks use ssh or windows remoting functionality, respectively, to allow a python program to execute other commands (including python scripts) on other systems. If the target machine is a windows machine, be forewarned that you can run into all sorts of UAC issues doing normal operations.
I am trying to create a web application using flask. I have already gotten somewhat comfortable with using python, and have done so using spyder, inside of Anacanda Navigator. Now I am playing around with flask doing basic functions and have successful so far by testing it out in local server 127.0.0.1:5000. The problem I am having is that I cannot stop the server once I run the script in spyder. I have stopped the script and run other scripts through the console, but the local server remains the same.
The reason this is a problem for me is because when I try to change files and run a different flask script, the server does not update with the new information. For example, if I run a flask script that returns "Hello World" on the main page, and then I stop that file, open a new file that has a different flask script that returns "The sky is blue" the server does not change when I check it on chrome or any other browser. It will onyl return "Hello World"
I have been able to fix this problem by completely restarting my computer, but I am wondering if there is another way, just to restart the local server, 127.0.0.1:5000. Thank You!
Also I am using windows
I do : "Run > Configuration per file > Execute in an external system terminal",
then when you run your .py containing the app.run, it will be launched in an external console. If you close the console the server will be closed too.
To Kill the local server, you may use Ctrl+C command and not any other command. This command is also mentioned when the server is up and running.
I've been having this precise issue and have been smashing my head against the wall for a couple of hours. I posted the referenced StackOverflow question (my first actually) and it seems that running a script from inside Spyder is the wrong way to go as it leaves runaway background processes running, even after restarting Spyder.
I got the recommendation to only launch my *.py code from the command prompt. Furthermore I was told to do this:
set FLASK_APP=main1.py then set FLASK_DEBUG=1 then flask run
though I'm not sure what that does, so I will investigate. I was about to restart my computer as a last ditch effort until I looked in my Windows Task Manager and found some Python tasks running. After [end task] them both I was able to launch the updated webpage on my local host.
I recently realized that I could use Bash for Windows as the terminal for use in Pycharm so that the IDE had a proper terminal in it even through it was in Windows. I want to work on a Django project but I realized something strange. When I run the server through the IDE's run button, everything runs as expected. However, when I try to run the server through the command line via
python3 manage.py runserver,
the terminal output is the same, but my browsers cannot connect. Instead they say that the connection was reset. I have full installations of Django and Python for both Windows and the Bash environment and both seem to be fully functional. I can make migrations and create new apps through the command line just fine, but I was wondering if anybody else knew why the Django Server does not connect when run through Bash on Windows
I'm developing some Python project with Django. When we render the Python/Django application, we need to open the command prompt and type in python manage.py runserver. That's ok on for the development server. But for production, it looks funny. Is there anyway to run the Python/Django project without opening the command prompt?
The deployment section of the documentation details steps to configure servers to run django in production.
runserver is to be used strictly for development and should never be used in production.
You run the runserver command only when you develop. After you deploy, the client does not need to run python manage.py runserver command. Calling the url will execute the required view. So it need not be a concern
If you are using Linux I wrote a pretty, pretty basic script, which I am always using when I don't want to call this command.
Note: You really just should use the "runserver" for developing :)
#!/bin/bash
#Of course change "IP-Address" to your current IP-Address and the "Port" to your port.
#ifconfig to get your IP-Address
python manage.py runserver IP-Address:Port
just name it runserver.sh and execute it like this in your terminal:
./runserver.sh
