Django environment on cPanel

[Iron_Butterfly]

Community, I would like to ask you about the correct deployment of Django environment + PostgreSQL on my cPanel site. I have Django site and I want to host it on cPanel.
However, I heard that using mod_python is not secure.
Could you please give me the right direction.
Thank you!

Hello @Iron_Butterfly,

There's currently no native support for Django, however I encourage you to vote, add feedback, and review the existing comments on the official feature request at:

Django support

Regarding third-party solutions, CloudLinux provides a tool that makes it easy to offer Django support to your users:

Ruby and Python Selectors
CloudLinux Documentation

Thank you.

@cPanelMichael Thank you! But what about PostgreSQL?

 

[Iron_Butterfly]

Also, I'm digging cPanel documentation and can't find an answer to one question - why I can't see "Setup Python App" button in Software section of my cPanel?

@cPanelMichael Thank you! But what about PostgreSQL?

Well, I have installed PostgreSQL with /scripts/installpostgres and configured it.

What about my last question - why I can't see "Setup Python App" button in Software section of my cPanel?

Is it enabled? From the link mentioned above:
CloudLinux Documentation - Hide Python and Ruby Selector Icons

Sorry, but my WHM/cPanel is installed to CentOS7 VPS, not CloudLinux.

Is it enabled on your account's Package's Features List?

I go to Packages » Feature Manager » Edit default Feature List and see nothing related to Python. What should I do now?

Still can't understand why someone can see "Setup Python App" button in Software section. But I can't.
Is this cPanel feature? In this case why I can't use it?

 

[Infopro]

It's not a default Feature in cPanel:
cPanel Features List - Documentation - cPanel Documentation

 

[Iron_Butterfly]

It's not a default Feature in cPanel:
cPanel Features List - Documentation - cPanel Documentation

Still no explanation - how can I get this "not a default Feature in cPanel"?

My apologies for the confusion, CloudLinux offers this, as suggested in the post above by cPanelMichael. That option is mentioned in the CloudLinux docs I linked you to earlier as well:
CloudLinux Documentation - Hide Python and Ruby Selector Icons

 

[Iron_Butterfly]

So, if I correctly understood, this feature is not available for cPanel installed on CentOS7?
Very bad. I will have to transfer my Django site to an alternate hosting panel.

Hello,

That is correct. This feature you are referring is only available on cPanel installations with CloudLinux:

Thank you.
