I have a Django project on Google Compute Engine. Here is the structure of my Django project.
example_channels

└── manage.py
Following the tutorialsб I made an asgi.py:
import os
from channels.asgi import get_channel_layer
os.environ.setdefault("DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE", "my_project.settings")
channel_layer = get_channel_layer()
I use asgi_redis as a back-end. The settings file looks like this:
CHANNEL_LAYERS = {
'default': {
'BACKEND': 'asgi_redis.RedisChannelLayer',
'CONFIG': {
'hosts': [('localhost', 6379)],
},
'ROUTING': 'example_channels.routing.channel_routing',
}
}
I then try to start the server. I run python manage.py runworker & and get:
~/websockets_prototype/example_channels$ 2017-07-19 16:04:19,204 - INFO - runworker - Usi
ng single-threaded worker.
2017-07-19 16:04:19,204 - INFO - runworker - Running worker against channel layer default (asgi_redis.core.RedisCha
nnelLayer)
2017-07-19 16:04:19,205 - INFO - worker - Listening on channels http.request, websocket.connect, websocket.disconne
ct, websocket.receive
And then run Daphne:
~/websockets_prototype/example_channels$ 2017-07-19 16:05:28,619 INFO Starting server

2017-07-19 16:05:28,620 INFO Listening on endpoint tcp:port=80:interface=0.0.0.0
I then start sending requests to the server, but I get This site can’t be reached error.
