[web2py:24518] Having an 'upgrade' distribution?

2009-06-19 Thread Eddie Eyles
I like the pace of new releases of web2py, but it is a pain to download each one (the Windows distribution takes an hour on my connection if I am lucky). Given that each new release has normally changed only a few files, would it be realistic to provide a small 'upgrade' distribution from the pre

I'm getting a gateway timeout again, trying to open web2py.com. This after several days of no problems at all. Surprisingly, traceroute shows all nodes responding, all the way through to the web2py.com host. Does anyone know how to diagnose this kind of problem? Eddie On Jun 14, 10:04 pm, mdi

I'm retrieving data that may contain carriage returns, and I want to display this with these line breaks intact, i.e. I need to put either a '' or an HTML block element closure/opening in place of each carriage return. I have tried the following in the view: {{=row.basic.comments.replace('\n',''

I'm also intermittently getting 'Gateway timeout' when I try to access web2py.com. I've not looked for information about which node was at fault, but will do next time! I can access it at the moment, and my full traceroute (from the UK) is: Tracing route to web2py.com [140.192.37.194] over a max

I think Christopher and Saber have good points here. Any application should be flexible about where its data is stored. There are many good potential reasons for wanting to separate the respective locations of application and data. The symbolic link solution, while offering just a little flexib

2009-05-21 Thread Eddie Eyles
Hi, The date-time in the VERSION file of the Windows version of web2py 1.62.3 doesn't match the date-time on the web site. This leads to the admin interface telling you that a new version of web2py is available, even though you're on the latest version. This problem doesn't exist in the source c
