By the way, I was just thinking about a work around for my problem when i decided to do a DIFF between the webfaction controllers/appadmin.py file and the one on windows. THEY ARE DIFFERENT. I did not expect that.
Here is a link to the 2 files, appadmin.py.windows, appadmin.py.linux for download. http://theo.jdor.webfactional.com/dl/web2py-google-group/2QjSeDaV_K0/ When trying to post this reply on my original post with attachments, i kept getting "An error (#340) occurred while communicating with the server." I tried from both firefox and opera. Thanks again.
