[web2py] transfer auth_group data with the app

In my auth_group data I have defined a 'manager' role. The problem is that when I try to deploy my app, the db does not get transferred, so my code breaks because the 'manager' group cannot be found. Is there a way to have it initialized when the app installs in a new location? Thank you

[web2py] Re: Datetime picker problem

Going further, the datetime is formated differently in the database (2011-10-31 23:10:00) and the form (2011-11-01T04:26Z), so it makes it difficult to perform a query using the data gathered from the form.
