generic.json now says: {{ ### # response._vars contains the dictionary returned by the controller action ### try: from gluon.serializers import json response.write(json(response._vars),escape=False) response.headers['Content-Type']='text/json' except: raise HTTP(405,'no json') }} I suggest this instead: {{ ### # response._vars contains the dictionary returned by the controller action ### try: from gluon.serializers import json response.write(json(response._vars), escape=False) response.headers['Content-Type'] = 'application/json' except (TypeError, ValueError): raise HTTP(405, 'JSON serialization error') except ImportError: raise HTTP(405, 'JSON not available') except: raise HTTP(405, 'JSON error') }}
