Just to be sure there is not mystery / this is clear: When you start web2py from the console with no arguments, you are asked to config various things (port, admin password); You can also do this from the command line (in which case, no config- gui comes up prior to starting the built-in server). When you run from other than the built-in server, there is no setup: the port and admin password must exist _somewhere_! The way you create this information is to run from the console "once" - because what this does is create a file: parameters_{port_number}.py, which is then used at startup. So (for example): $ python web2py.py -a 'hello' will create parameters_80.py (the default port is 80). You can edit, or copy this file - if you want to use the same password, but on port 432, just copy this file (for example) to: parameters_432.py In any case, the parameters file is used to supply "command-line" parameters when not running from the command line. Hope this takes the mystery out of it.
