I'm trying to run multiple Django development server using a python script, normally I run the server using a terminal command "python manage.py runserver PORTNumber". I want to be able to run multiple instances on different ports, but when trying to use os.system, I get blocked; I made a thread that contained the os.system command, but when opening it I get blocked too. Any ideas how to prevent that, or a way around to run the development server on multiple ports ?

Thanks in advance.

Show some code, and/or some tracebacks – Nick Craig-Wood May 15 '12 at 13:21

I'm developing a python cloud IDE, so every project has to have its own port. – askso May 15 '12 at 13:30
Don't do that with the development server. – Daniel Roseman May 15 '12 at 13:47
@user908723 That's not what I meant. Ordinarily there's no direct link between os.system() and running multiple instances - but your question is phrased like there is. So there's probably a lot you're not telling us. – nos May 15 '12 at 14:04
