If you get the web2py binary it also includes win32 extension. ActiveState does not solve the problem that the Python standard distribution for windows does not include it. On Feb 25, 8:19 pm, mr.freeze nat...@freezable.com wrote: I started using ActivePython instead of the stock releases of

Thanks for the heads up. I did run web2py.py directly and while it works, I got the following warning: WARNING:root:no file locking It seems to work otherwise, but I'd still like some clarification on the warning if anybody knows. Parallel to this, I found a py2exe to make a 64 bit binary at

Tiago was right. You need the windows extension to have file locking in windows. I do not know why they did not include that as standard in Python. I agree with you it should be critical. On Feb 25, 6:13 am, Magnitus eric_vallee2...@yahoo.ca wrote: what os are you using. This should work o Posix

Ah, I'm browsing through the web manual and found this statement which left me with more questions: web2py runs with CPython (the C implementation) and/or Jython (the Java implementation), versions 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6 although officially only support 2.5 else we cannot guarantee backward

web2py runs flawlessly in Python 2.6. I've been running it for several months. All python code (web2py included) that runs on 2.5 runs on 2.6 as well. The inverse is not true however. The main purpose of Python 2.6 (and the upcoming 2.7) is to facilitate code migration to Python 3.x. It

I run all of my web2py apps on 2.6 and have never had any problems. web2py will never support python 3.x. For this there will be a fork of web2py created named web3py which will support the python 3.x branch. Python 3.x goes against everything that web2py stands for (backwards compatibility).
