After upgrading to web2py version 1.76.5 one of the functions I defined no longer works.
I defined a table newsmonth: db.define_table('newsmonth', db.Field('number',type='integer',length=2,default='',notnull=True), db.Field('month',length=14,default='',notnull=True,unique=True), db.Field('publish',type='boolean'), migrate=False) ... which I use to display archived news items per month. Number is the number of the month e.g April 4. Month is a string, for April it reads like: April 2010. Publish defaults to false and is set to true on the 1st of the next month. In the view I have a list with links: March 2010 february 2010 january 2010 When the visitor clicks March 2010, the news table is queried: def archive(): months=db(db.newsmonth.publish==True).select(db.newsmonth.ALL,orderby=~db.newsmonth.id) news=[] month=[] if request.args: news=db(db.news.publishing_date.month()==request.args[0])\ .select(db.news.ALL,orderby=~db.news.publishing_date) month=request.args[1] if not news: response.flash='Select an archived month' else: response.flash='Select an archived month' return dict(months=months,news=news,month=month) month is set to request.args[1], i.e March 2010, and returned to the view: <div id="twoColLayout"> <div id="primarycontent"> .... <div id="month"> <h3>Nieuws {{=month.replace('_',' ')}}</h3> <table> <thead> <tr> <td></td> </tr> </thead> <tbody> {{for item in news:}} <tr> <td> <h5>{{=db.news.publishing_date.formatter(item.publishing_date)}}</h5> </td> <td> {{=A(item.title,_onmouseover="this.style.cursor='pointer';",\ _onclick="javascript:newsdetails('%s')"%URL(r=request,f='details',args=[item.id]))}} </td> </tr> {{pass}} </tbody> </table> </div> <!-- month --> </div> <!-- primarycontent --> <div id="sidecontent"> <div class="sidebox"> <h3>Archived months:</h3> <table> <tbody> {{for month in months:}} <tr> <td> {{=A(month.month,_href=URL(r=request,args=[month.number,month.month]))}} </td> </tr> {{pass}} </tbody> </table> </div> <!-- sidebox --> </div> <!-- sidecontent --> </div> <!-- twoColLayout --> When I expose the archive function, the view displays well. The URL reads like: http://127.0.0.1:8000/init/news/archive However, when I click one of the archived months links I get an invalid request error. The link in the view reads like: <a href="init/news/archive/3/March %202010">March 2010</a> ... the URL in the browser reads like: http://127.0.0.1:8000/init/news/archive/3/maart%202010 Since the function works without args, I suppose the error has something to do with the args, the porblem is I can't figure out what.
