As of version 1.77.3, web2py depends on the "ssl" package for HTTPS
support. It no longer uses the "pyOpenSSL" package. You can get ssl
for Python 2.3-2.5 from the cheeseshop.

I have web2py installed on a remote Debian server. When connecting via

created a private certificate authority for the SSL connection.
When starting the server (the included web2py server) I'm passing the
path to the path to the certificates via command line switches, but
get the following error message:
"WARNING:root:Python "ssl" module unavailable. SSL is OFF"
Next, on the Debian box I installed python-openssl
Where to go from here. How to turn on SSL?
I followed this helpful blog post

but my results were not the same.
Thanks in advance for any help. I look forward to learning web2py and
being part of this community. I just can't seem to get started with
the admin.
