Yes I customized welcome and then added a new app via the admin interface. I did not directly copy the welcome app, just modified the html etc.
Now I am really confused about how this all works. So when I fire up web2py and create a new app via the admin, should that be my only app then? So I did implement the CAS stuff but now I get an error saying 'DAL' object has no attribute 'auth_user' for the app I have.
