Title Body

Trying to setup a server on Rackspace.com. Have done the following things: Installed Centos 6.3 Installed Python 2.7 Installed gunicorn using the "Quick Start" on their home page: gunicorn.org/ In the quick start, a "hello world" application seems to be initialized: Create file " myapp.py ": (tutorial) $ vi myapp.py (tutorial) $ cat myapp.py Contents of " myapp.py " def app(environ, start_response): data = "Hello, World!\n" start_response("200 OK", [ ("Content-Type", "text/plain"), ("Content-Length", str(len(data))) ]) return iter([data]) Since I know very little about servers, I do not know what to do next. I tried typing the server's IP address into the browser, but that seemed to result in a timeout. I'm not sure if there is: something else that needs to be installed. Nginx is mentioned under " deploy " on the gunicorn website. Looks like Nginx is a proxy server which is confusing to me because I thought gunicorn was a server. Not sure why I need two servers? something that needs to be configured in gunicorn something that needs to be configured on the server itself something that else entirely that needs to be done in order to actually serve a request What are the next steps? Thanks so much!
