well, the underlying problem with this architecture is that on / apache rewrites internally from /whatever/whatever2 to /whatever/whatever2 on the default instance. From this standpoint, the default behaviour of web2py is tuned "accordingly" to what apache is doing.
On /dev/ apache rewrites internally /dev/whatever/whatever2 to (I suspect) /whatever/whatever2 on the dev instance. But, web2py doesn't know that apache has done an internal rewrite, and apache doesn't rewrite outcoming urls accordingly . Unless you play a lot with rewritecond or proxypassreverse, the better way is informing web2py in advance that every /whatever/whatever2 url needs to be outputted as /dev/whatever/whatever2 , so you get a consistent behaviour client-side .... you have to play with your routes.py on the dev instance to make it behave "accordingly" to what apache is doing.
