I think have now solved the issue of installing psycopg2. Once again, pip install failed due to permissions, and sudo pip install failed due to wrong version of pip. This time, a small grey cell said ..."use whereis", so I did, figured out which of the listed pips was correct, and put that full path into the sudo command. Bingo! it still seems to me I should have been able to put psycopg2 in the web2py tree, but I haven't quite figured out what gluon/packages/dal/pydal/adapters/base.py and gluon/packages/dal/pydal/adapters/postgres.py do when they are trying to locate drivers, and obviously I didn't find the right spot in the tree for psycopg2. No matter, I've got things running now, and I'm off to keep an eye on the scheduler memory usage. /dps -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
