Thank you for the clarification. My wsgi.conf has default values, so I have not set maximum-requests. Perhaps there are settings there I should look into?
I still have free memory, so perhaps there is not a memory leak issue. I'm also not sure how one would get memory leaks in web2py, since isn't the environment wiped clean with each request? This looks similar to the issue here: http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/browse_thread/thread/49a7ecabf4910bcc/b6fac1806ffebcd1?lnk=gst&q=ioerror#b6fac1806ffebcd1 Was there any resolution? I use logging by having the following file in models/0_log.py: import logging def get_log(): try: f = open(logging.handlers[0].baseFilename, 'r') c = f.readlines() f.close() return {'log':TABLE(*[TR(str(item)) for item in c])} except: return () # This model file defines some magic to implement app_wide_log. def _init_log(): # Does not work on GAE import os,logging,logging.handlers logger = logging.getLogger(request.application) logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG) handler = logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler( os.path.join( # so that it can be served as http://.../yourapp/static/applog.txt request.folder,'static','applog.txt'),'a',1024*1024,1) handler.setLevel(logging.DEBUG) handler.setFormatter(logging.Formatter("%(asctime)s %(levelname)s % (filename)s:%(lineno)d %(funcName)s(): %(message)s")) logger.addHandler(handler) return logger logging = cache.ram('app_wide_log',lambda:_init_log(),time_expire=None) On Jul 20, 2:03 am, mdipierro <mdipie...@cs.depaul.edu> wrote: > Thanks for the clarification. > > @Michael, do you use the logging module?
