I just re-downloaded the source from http://www.web2py.com/examples/default/download (not the latest dev snapshot) and re-installed it. I couldn't even get web2py to start. It looked like an incomplete set of files to me.
So, I installed the Windows version on the server and then restarted web2py. Now, a lot of stuff does work, including my new app. But a lot of stuff in my old app is broken now. One of my controllers is throwing this error where it used to run fine: Traceback (most recent call last): File "gluon/restricted.py", line 173, in restricted File "D:/web2py/applications/myapp/controllers/admin.py", line 962, in <module> File "gluon/globals.py", line 96, in <lambda> File "gluon/tools.py", line 1847, in f File "D:/web2py/applications/myapp/controllers/admin.py", line 224, in res File "gluon/sqlhtml.py", line 992, in __init__ File "gluon/sql.py", line 2640, in formatter File "gluon/validators.py", line 2053, in formatter File "gluon/validators.py", line 1858, in formatter AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'strftime' I looked at all the code that has strftime and all the fields that are being formatted that way are datetimes, so it shouldn't be a problem. This app's been running flawlessly for a long time before this new install. Even directly accessing the db via the admin interface doesn't work well. If I look at db.auth_event table I get a ticket: Traceback (most recent call last): File "gluon/restricted.py", line 173, in restricted File "D:/web2py/applications/myapp/views/appadmin.html", line 156, in <module> File "gluon/globals.py", line 105, in write File "gluon/html.py", line 99, in xmlescape File "gluon/html.py", line 513, in xml File "gluon/html.py", line 504, in _xml File "gluon/html.py", line 99, in xmlescape File "gluon/html.py", line 513, in xml File "gluon/html.py", line 504, in _xml File "gluon/html.py", line 99, in xmlescape File "gluon/html.py", line 513, in xml File "gluon/html.py", line 504, in _xml File "gluon/html.py", line 99, in xmlescape File "gluon/html.py", line 513, in xml File "gluon/html.py", line 504, in _xml File "gluon/html.py", line 99, in xmlescape File "gluon/sql.py", line 1410, in __getattr__ File "gluon/sql.py", line 1405, in __allocateException: undefined record If I try to look at another table I get this error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "gluon/restricted.py", line 173, in restricted File "D:/web2py/applications/myapp/controllers/appadmin.py", line 270, in <module> File "gluon/globals.py", line 96, in <lambda> File "D:/web2py/applications/SPiNup/controllers/appadmin.py", line 157, in select TypeError: expected string or buffer -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
