Hey, I'm completely new to web2py and I am currently trying to install/run Runestone <http://runestoneinteractive.org/build/html/developer.html>on it. I've followed the specific instructions given to me by runestone up to the point where it says to modify the database if you get an error.
I'm currently getting this error: <type 'exceptions.ImportError'> cannot import name uname and as I understand it this means that my database config is not setup correctly - if 'local' in uname()[1] or 'David' in uname()[0]: settings.database_uri = 'sqlite://storage.sqlite' elif 'webfaction' in uname()[1]: # the real uri is set in gitignore'd 1.py settings.database_uri = 'postgres://a_fake_database' elif 'luther' in uname()[1]: settings.database_uri = 'sqlite://storage.sqlite' else: raise RuntimeError('Host unknown, settings not configured') Currently I have no local(on my system) database created however I do have a university database at sots.brookes that runs on mysql that I can use. Can anyone give me any advice on how to either connect to a local database or the sots.brookes one so that I can run runestone correctly. Thanks in advanced, David - Complete novice. -- 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.
