How to run multiple Django sites on Nginx and uWSGI?

Question

Is it possible to run multiple Django sites on the same server using Nginx and uWSGI?

I suppose it's necessary to run multiple uWSGI instances (one for each site). I copied /etc/init.d/uwsgi to uwsgi2 and changed the port number. But, I got the following error:

# /etc/init.d/uwsgi2 start
Starting uwsgi: /usr/bin/uwsgi already running.

How is it possible to run multiple uWSGI instances?

Thanks

You can create create multiple virtual hosts that allow you to host multiple sites, independent from each other. More info here: http://wiki.nginx.org/VirtualHostExample.

A bit more detailed info here as well on how to setup virtual hosts http://projects.unbit.it/uwsgi/wiki/RunOnNginx#VirtualHosting.
