>> do I need some additional plugins to hook it up to my existing mysql db
Just write a connection string and table description in your model file - 6th chapter of book describes this. However in web2py all tables have autoincrement integer primary key called "id". This field will be added automatically (when migration is enabled, which is default). However you need have compatible foreign keys in linked tables (integer foreign keys with appropriate values for primary key "id"). If you already have a different style of primary/foreign keys, then connection is possible, but it will be not easy. It's better to redesign primary/foreign keys in such case. -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
