| ryan | technology | If you want to have more than 1 Django site on a single server, you can. It’s not too hard, and using the Digital Ocean tutorial as a starting point, you can get there. Using [this tutorial](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to- set-up-django-with-postgres-nginx-and-gunicorn-on-ubuntu-18-04) as a start, we set up so that there are multiple Django sites being served by `gunicorn` and `nginx`. ## Creating `systemd` Socket and Service Files for Gunicorn The first thing to do is to set up 2 Django sites on your server. You’ll want to follow the tutorial referenced above and just repeat for each. Start by creating and opening two systemd socket file for Gunicorn with sudo privileges: Site 1 sudo vim /etc/systemd/system/site1.socket Site 2 sudo vim /etc/systemd/system/site2.socket The contents of the files will look like this: [Unit] Description=siteX socket [Socket] ListenStream=/run/siteX.sock [Install] WantedBy=sockets.target Where `siteX` is the site you want to server from that socket Next, create and open a systemd service file for Gunicorn with sudo privileges in your text editor. The service filename should match the socket filename with the exception of the extension sudo vim /etc/systemd/system/siteX.service The contents of the file will look like this: [Unit] Description=gunicorn daemon Requires=siteX.socket After=network.target [Service] User=sammy Group=www-data WorkingDirectory=path/to/directory ExecStart=path/to/gunicorn/directory --access-logfile - --workers 3 --bind unix:/run/gunicorn.sock myproject.wsgi:application [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target Again `siteX` is the socket you want to serve Follow tutorial for testing Gunicorn ## Nginx server { listen 80; server_name server_domain_or_IP; location = /favicon.ico { access_log off; log_not_found off; } location /static/ { root /path/to/project; } location / { include proxy_params; proxy_pass http://unix:/run/siteX.sock; } } Again `siteX` is the socket you want to serve Next, link to enabled sites Test Nginx Open firewall Should now be able to see sites at domain names | 2021-03-07 | setting-up-multiple-django-sites-on-a-digital-ocean-server | If you want to have more than 1 Django site on a single server, you can.
