Localhost confusion

Support
#1

first do “sudo apt-get install python-virtualenv”

I’m trying to follow this: Setting up Django and your web server with uWSGI and nginx — uWSGI 2.0 documentation

but when I attempt its first check in the beginning with “uwsgi --http :8000 --wsgi-file test.py” and I go to 127.0.0.1:8000 it doesn’t work. can someone please try those few commands or explain why? (when you make test.py, switch last comment since we’re using python2)

thanks in advance!

Perhaps this is the problem? See:

Ah, because localhost is disabled. Thanks. Would enabling Transparent Torification be ok just while I’m developing this site?

Also, I know this seems like a dumb question but… Since all traffic is routed through Tor, would a hidden service hosted on Whonix be super slow? or is it like a normal .onion and will benefit from 1gbps+ provider speed?

I guess so. I don’t see how else you could do it anyhow other than using iceweasel which would be worse.

Whonix shouldn't make a difference here. See also: - https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Hidden_Services - https://www.whonix.org/wiki/FAQ#Does_Whonix_modify_Tor.3F

I wouldn’t know yet if/how to benefit from it, but answering that question is unrelated to Whonix.
