db.auth_user[auth.user.id] is a Row object, so the .update() method is just updating that object. If you want to update the db, use the .update_record() method (see http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/06#update_record), or do:
db.auth_user[auth.user_id] = dict(bla=bla) or db(db.auth_user.id == auth.user_id).update(bla=blah) Anthony On Sunday, February 3, 2013 10:12:42 PM UTC-5, encompass wrote: > > When I change some data in db.auth_user[auth.user.id].update(bla=bla) > I don't get the changes in auth.user.bla. > Is this the expected behavior?
