Hi, Thank you.
I was under the impression that web2py was only compatible with Python2.7, and that py4web was for Python3x. I now understand that py2web has been modified and is also compatible with Python3, up to 3.11. That definitely opens new horizons for me. I might try to install Python3 alongside, and use it's venv. I think that might be less confusing than trying to install a newer Python2.7 version, on this system, do you agree ? Is migrating an web2py from Python2.7 to Python 3x a straightforward task ? Or might it need some code refactoring ?
