I've been working with web2py for a while. Lastnight I updated to last
version, and my webforms just collapsed (sorry for my poor english).
Anyway. After some minutes searching for the cause of the problem,
I've decided to start from scratch with an example. I downloaded the
version 1.91.4 (I'm using Ubuntu 10.04). I created a new application.
The model (very simple, I took it from web2py examples):
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
db.define_table('person',
Field('name'))
db.define_table('dog',
Field('name'),
Field('owner', db.person))
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then, I wrote the "index" function on "default.py" controller:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
def index():
form = SQLFORM.factory(db.dog)
if form.accepts(request.vars, keepvalues=True):
response.flash = 'New dog inserted'
dogs = db(db.dog.id>0).select()
return dict(form=form, dogs=dogs)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the view I just added {{=form}} and {{=BEAUTIFY(dogs)}}, just to
see the result of the function.
When I try to run the function, I receive the following error:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The SAME code, but using SQLFORM(db.dog) instead of
SQLFORM.factory(db.dog), works just fine.
The SAME code, but with an older version of web2py, works just fine.
What happened to SQLFORM.factory? Some bug? Or it's just me that I'm
doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance.
