Thanks. I realized after I sent that last request that the __name__ of URL might not be significant at this point, because we're inside the URL() function. This might be worth a try. In appadmin.py, near the beginning (after the imports, but before response.menu is set): logger = logging.getLogger('web2py') logger.warning('appadmin url.name=%s' % URL.__name__) What you *should* see is _URL. That's what I see if I stick it in my own appadmin. > > > > > On Sep 18, 3:33 pm, Jonathan Lundell <jlund...@pobox.com> wrote: >> On Sep 18, 2010, at 11:52 AM, Avik Basu wrote: >> >> >> >>> After restarting the server, I get the following error: >> >>> SyntaxError: URL: a=index c=None f=None r=None >> >> I was afraid of that, and I can't explain it. >> >> Please check that line 219 of gluon/compileapp.py is: >> >> environment['URL'] = html._gURL(request) >> >> And you might want to quit your server, delete all the .pyc files in gluon, >> and restart. >> >> Do you do anything tricky with globals() or the URL symbol in your models? >> >> And let's try one more printing attempt: >> >> if not (application and controller and function): >> if r: >> msg = 'URL: a=%s c=%s f=%s r.a=%s r.c=%s r.f=%s' % >> (application,controller,function,r.application,r.controller,r.function) >> else: >> msg = 'URL: a=%s c=%s f=%s r=%s u=%s' % >> (application,controller,function,r,URL.__name__) >> raise SyntaxError, msg >> >> >> >> >> >>> On Sep 18, 2:46 pm, Jonathan Lundell <jlund...@pobox.com> wrote: >>>> On Sep 18, 2010, at 11:40 AM, Avik Basu wrote: >> >>>>> When I replace the code in gluon/html.py, I still keep getting the >>>>> same SyntaxError ('not enough information to build the url') which >>>>> seems strange since that is not even in the code anymore. >> >>>>> I am sort of new to debugging the gluon code so I maybe making some >>>>> simple mistake.
