Running web2py dev site on local machine for testing purposes.  Just did 
upgrade in place to 2.7.4 (sort of works but something is always broken in 
some mysterious way--never again, I guess.  A great idea but only if it 
works).  

When I did this on my production server, I had to change privileges and got 
things to work.  I think I made www-data the owner of everything with rwx 
privileges.

So, my dev machine is not accessible (easily) on the internet and it is not 
my intention to make it so (don't have static ip address in any case).

I set following privileges on the entire web2py folder recursively:

owner:  "me"  (my login for the machine), rwx privileges
group: -www, rwx privileges
user: r-x privileges

My app runs just fine.  I can access the database page of appadmin.  

I get a ticket when attempting to reach the overall admin page, sites, and 
design for my app.  Of course, I can't see the tickets because I can't run 
the admin pages.

I have full admin access to the machine so I can do whatever.  Symptoms 
suggest a privileges issue, but having opened pretty much everything up and 
stop and restarted the server, and stopped and restarted python just to be 
sure--I still can't around this.

Could there be an issue with what user or group is associated with Safari 
when running against localhost?  'me' has full privileges.  -www has full 
privileges.  Is there a different group I should be using for local 
browsing?

Thanks,
Lewis

(I forebear from complaining because it is always me, but I wish this were 
easier...)
