One more piece of the puzzle, not sure if this helps... In our app's
models/db.py there are a couple of potential relevant differences:
1) db initialization: db = DAL('sqlite://storage.sqlite', migrate=False)vs. db
= DAL('sqlite://storage.sqlite',pool_size=1,check_reserved=['all'])
2) auth initialization: auth = Auth(db, hmac_key=Auth.get_or_create_key())vs.
auth = Auth(db)
and then my original post...
