Hi all. I am very frustrated, I must say. After several weeks of work (and reading and re-reading all that I have found online), I simply cannot get installed a working environment. I do now have the latest stable release of web2py installed along with nginx and uwsgi. That works as a framework just fine. I played with the builtin wiki and found that instructive as far as understanding how this all fits together. I am very impressed with that.
But as a shortcut (I am pretty new with python, admittedly), I have tried some of the referenced appliances in the repo including, finally, outside the repo, Instant Press. It was promising but it simply throws a lot of exceptions as you start to use it. It also has not been maintained and will not run without a lot of errors on the latest web2py (like KPax2, just doesn't run any longer). None of the CMS-like apps work currently on web2py having not been maintained for years. Where is that "backwards compatibility" when you need it? So, I am looking for a quicker start by using someone's work to begin with. What I want to build is a very simple site to start with (a CMS, basically, including groups, a blog, etc., and with support for streaming audio). I do not want to go the route of Django-CMS or something like that. I do hope to stick with web2py. But I am very discouraged. I am NOT looking for something like Joomla or Drupal - I have done that before already and for years getting boxed into something that was incredibly unwieldy and large. I hope someone can give me some pointers. /Jim -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
