Taking the example from the wiki:

import cherrypy

class Root():
    exposed = True

    def __init__(self, *things):
        self.things = list(things)

    def GET(self):
        return repr(self.things)

    def POST(self, thing):
        self.things.append(thing)

root = Root(1, 2, 3)

d = cherrypy.dispatch.MethodDispatcher()
conf = {'/': {'request.dispatch': d}}
cherrypy.tree.mount(root, "/", conf)
cherrypy.server.socket_port=8081

cherrypy.quickstart(root)

This fails with a traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\cherrypy\_cprequest.py", line
606, in respond
    cherrypy.response.body = self.handler()
  File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\cherrypy\_cpdispatch.py", line
25, in __call__
    return self.callable(*self.args, **self.kwargs)
AttributeError: Root instance has no __call__ method

Can someone tell me what I have done wrong? Thanks

Voltron a écrit :

You are mounting the application with cherrypy.tree.mount and you do
provide the conf but then you override it with cherrypy.quickstart
without providing the conf.

Either:

cherrypy.tree.mount(root, "/", conf)
cherrypy.engine.start()
cherrypy.engine.block()

Or:

cherrypy.quickstart(root, "/", conf)
