I narrowed the problem to pydal. I could get things to work in web2py 2.12.2, but in 2.13.4, something has changed which makes GAE no longer work for me. That appears to be the source of my problem. But web2py is supposed to be backwards compatible, so.....
Just did a test. Whatever broke happened on the update to 2.12.3. I can literally install 2.13.4 (latest version), then replace gluon/packages/dal/pydal with the pydal folder from 2.12.2 and everything works fine. I don't have anything fancy in my app. I've only made edits to controllers and views (and of course defined my tables and menus in the models). Can anyone get GAE to work with MySQL in version 2.12.3 or later?
