FWIW - I successfully started web2py on IBM i tonight. Three things I need to work on to make better
1. Install doesn't seem to work with git clone - maybe something I'm doing wrong but I had to clone to my workstation then zip and upload 2. I'm using SQLite for the db but would really like to use DB2/400. Looking for pointers on how to build a connector for the DAL. 3. https configuration. Again, I don't think there are any real issues here, I just need to spend the time to get it working. I'm running on litmis spaces now and the problem has more to do with how to configure on their system than how to get web2py to work with it. It shouldn't be an issue if you're running on your own system. Hopefully more to come. -Jim On Tuesday, April 4, 2017 at 10:23:20 AM UTC-5, Jim S wrote: > > I don't believe https is supported for git. Or, at least it wasn't for > some time.
