[web2py] web2py, mod_proxy and redirection
Hi, I'm having problems with apache config of web2py. I'm trying to run a test server (which others can work against) and a dev server off the same apache server. Perhaps this is a little crazy, but that's how we're set up now. >From the external pov, I'm trying to configure my server such that hostname/ goes to the test server and hostname/dev goes to the dev server I have the test server and the dev server installed as two seperate web2py instances. My problem relates to the dev server and login based redirection. When I go to https://hostname/dev/admin I'm presented with a login form, but the send parameter on the login points to /admin and not /dev/admin. More specifically, https://hostname/dev/admin/default/index?send=%2Fadmin%2Fdefault%2Flogin Hence the client tries to load hostname/admin/default/login (and not the dev version) on login. Do I need to do anything specific with mod_proxy to catch this? Thanks and rgds, Seán. -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.

There seem to be quite a few posts in various places on how to get w2p working with apache/mod_proxy, often via a link such as hostname/web2py - it seems that such scenarios should have the same problem.

[web2py] OAuth login and creating new user info
Hi, I'd like to use w2p to support facebook login. When a new user signs up to the system, obviously, they should be added to the auth_user table. I'd like to create a new record for them also which can be linked to the auth_user. Another constraint is that I'd prefer not to modify the base gluon libs if possible. So, my q is this - is there a good way of running some function which can be executed each time a new user oauth's into the system - it looks like it's somehow related to get_or_create_user, but this seems to be deep in the bowels of w2p. Thoughts appreciated. BR, Seán. -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.

[web2py] where to post problems/feedback on web2py.com?
Hi, I have an issue with one of the appliances on web2py.com. On the page: http://www.web2py.com/appliances it says that we should report any issues we find. However, it's not clear where/to whom we report them. Any pointers? BR, Seán. -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.

[web2py] Re: where to post problems/feedback on web2py.com?
Thanks Massimo - I think it would be good to modify http://www.web2py.com/appliances to reflect this. BR, Seán.
