Thanks Mark. I've digged the problem with a rudimental debug, and I can see from the response headers that it's an "invalid application" error, as web2py looks for /var/www/lighttpd/web2py/applications/w2p, while the last key should be stripped. Lighttpd comes with a strip-request-uri, but it seems a bit buggy. In my case it completely strips the request uri, and gives strange characters as output, so I recieve obviously an "invalid path" error from web2py. I'll try with rewrite urls, but I thought it coud cause problems to the internal rewrite rules of web2py... but your experience is different. I'll go for it, and let you know.
giovanni PS: web2py developers, could we find a solution for this? Maybe a configuration option? I know web2py is zero-configuration... but this could worth a one-line file! :) On 20 Mag, 19:08, Mark Larsen <larsen...@gmail.com> wrote: > > but that configuration doesn't fit my needs. > > I've tried setting the following config, but it always results with an > > "Invalid request".
