Using 'manage' instead of the project name.

Gunicorn runs the WSGI application by pointing to the Django project's wsgi module, which is myproject.wsgi.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using port 80 or 443 which require root privileges.

Binding only to localhost which restricts external access.

Binding to 0.0.0.0:8000 makes Gunicorn listen on all network interfaces at port 8000.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using words like 'two' or 'zero' instead of numbers.

Using negative numbers for workers.

The number of workers must be a positive integer without quotes or signs, so 4 is correct.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 4 workers instead of 3.

Binding to 0.0.0.0 instead of localhost.

3 workers is a valid number, and binding to 127.0.0.1:9000 listens on localhost port 9000.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'manage' instead of the project name.

Binding to wrong IP or port.

Forgetting to specify workers.

The project name is myproject, workers set to 2, and binding to 0.0.0.0:8080 listens on all interfaces at port 8080. The --access-logfile - option enables access logs to the console.
