thanks niphlod,
I am not being very clear I guess. On the openshift server, I do have
access to the shared ssl, and when some apps are defined in the routes.py
as the default application, I can view the lock icon when https is invoked,
or when it is called if defined in a model file. But with the app that I
want to use, when I define that app as the default application, then the
icon is loaded but immediately goes away. This makes me think that there is
some
configuration in my app, maybe in the auth settings? that causes this to
happen.
I have tried several routes.py files to test. The most recent one was a
modification of one given to me by another very helpful web2py user, Andrew.
It looks like this:
default_application = 'blog' # ordinarily set in base routes.py
default_controller = 'default' # ordinarily set in app-specific routes.py
default_function = 'index' # ordinarily set in app-specific routes.py
routes_app = ((r'/(?P<app>blog|admin|app)\b.*', r'\g<app>'),
(r'(.*)', r'myapp'),
(r'/?(.*)', r'myapp'))
for example. It's really another app I am testing but this is the example.
With this loaded, the icon shows up when https is invoked. As soon as I
change to the app I want, the icon goes away. (I am reloading routes.py
inbetween tries).
I don't think it is the routes.py that is causing the problem. I think it's
something in the app config files. Do you have any suggestions for what
else to look for? Can I set up logging to see something like this?
thanks
