Cherokee + uWSGI + Pylons

Question

I have successfully deployed a Django app with uWSGI + Cherokee. However, I want to experiment with Pylons before I go decide on Django.

So far I have followed the instructions/recommendations here: Deploying Pylons with uWSGI

Paster serve works without a hitch. But when I try to serve via uWSGI, I get nowhere:

/usr/bin/uwsgi -s :5000 --paste config:/var/www/env/helloworld/development.ini -H /var/www/env -M

My uWSGI master and worker processes are spawned. SO, I visit http://localhost:5000 This is what I get:

Error 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE): Unknown error.

And my terminal reads back (and repeats when I refresh browser):

invalid request block size: 21573...skip

What am I doing wrong? I cannot find any guide or step-by-step specific for uWSGI + Cherokee

Answer 1

You should not visit http://localhost:5000. 5000 it's the port use for the communication between Cherokee and uWSGI. So you're trying to access uWSGI directly. You need to configure Cherokee and then go to the address:port you have configured in Cherokee to see your website.
