Open Microscopy Environment

Hi,

I've set up omero using apache with mod_python and everything is working fine until I have to reboot the system. After the reboot apache is running but it seems as if it's hang-up because nothing is loading (i just see the small indicator image of the browser).
When restarting apache manually after the reboot everything works fine again.

The mod_python config file looks like this:

Code: Select all

<Location "/">
    SetHandler python-program
    PythonHandler django.core.handlers.modpython
    SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE omeroweb.settings
    PythonDebug On
    PythonPath "['/srv/omero/omero_dist/lib/python', '/srv/omero/omero_dist/lib/python/omeroweb'] + sys.path"
</Location>

The apache error_log:

Code: Select all

[Mon Mar 29 14:26:49 2010] [notice] caught SIGTERM, shutting down
[Mon Mar 29 14:26:50 2010] [notice] mod_python: Creating 8 session mutexes based on 150 max processes and 0 max threads.

/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/mod_python/importer.py:32: DeprecationWarning: the md5 module is deprecated; use hashlib instead
  import md5

Has anyone an idea whats wrong?
(It has something to do with the mod_python as apache works fine after reboot without it)

hi,

i had a problem like that on a Ubuntu 9.10 System. I solved that with two scripts in '/etc/init.d':

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/expect
# script-name: websetter
spawn /home/omero/omero_dist/bin/omero web settings
expect "Do you want to ovewrite it? (yes/no)" { send "no\n" }
expect "Do you want to ovewrite it? (yes/no)" { send "no\n" }
expect "Database synchronization..." { interact }


the second starts the first:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
# startet expect script zur omero db synchronisation
echo 'start omero db synchronistation' >> /var/log/omerosyn.log
sudo -u www-data ./websetter
echo 'omero db synchronistation durchgefuehrt' >> /var/log/omerosyn.log


'www-data' is the apache-user. The Django System for Omero is available 3-4 minutes after a reebot with this scripts. This is not very nice, but it works.

ubuntu 9.10: mod_python 3.3.1 and python 2.6.4.

bye

Thanks. I'll test that.

EDIT:
Ok that's strange after 5 minutes of weiting the page finally loaded and apache seemed to work normal again.

Has anyone tried to use mod_wsgi for deploying the django server to production? I read (http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/deployment/modwsgi/#howto-deployment-modwsgi) that this is the recommended way but I failed getting it up and running.
