Thank you Jonathan,
that solved the upgrade problem.
Problem was that I did the 'chown -R apache:web2py *' command in the
web2py directory but that doesn't include the directory itself. So when
Apache tried to download the new version of web2py it could not write it
to harddisk. Sorry for this beginners mistake.
But the problem with creating a new application stays.

OK, I have no idea if they are related, it was just a thought on my part.
Kenneth, in gluon/admin.py you'll find this code:
full_url = url + '/examples/static/web2py_%s.zip' % version_type
filename = abspath('web2py_%s_downloaded.zip' % version_type)
try:
file = open(filename,'wb')
file.write(urllib.urlopen(full_url).read())
file.close()
except Exception,e:
file.close()
return False, e
try:
unzip(filename, destination, subfolder)
Try removing the second file.close() (the one after 'except'), and then try the
upgrade again. It won't fix the upgrade, but you should see a more helpful
error message saying why the file open failed.
Kenneth
Thanks Kenneth,
the traceback you posted applies to the second problem and I
understand that. I am scratching my head on why that traceback would
also apply to the first problem.

- unpacked the source package
- did a chown apache:web2py on all files
- login in to admin
- write the name of the new application and press create
- get the unable to create application "test"
Upgrade problem, the same, but
- select upgrade
- press YES
- get the error ticket
I don t know what else to write.

I see the problem but I do not understand why you have it. This should
manifest itself when you upgrade, not when you create a new app. Can
you list steps to reproduce the problem?
I am close to fixing it...
