If you have sudo access to a fresh ubuntu install just run this script
sudo setup-web2py.sh
and it will:
1) install a bunch of packages you need including ssh, emacs, apache2,
python2.5, postgresql
2) download and start web2py on port 8123 as user www-data
3) configure apache to prosy web2py and restarts apache
4) go to

I've installed web2py on "arch linux" and I only needed to download
web2py. It was really really easy... :-) I think that Python is already included
on default installation of Ubuntu. This script could be interesting
because, as I see, it install and configure Apache. You think that
this configuration could be good also on production server?

That is similar the configuration I use. Ideally one should use
mod_wsgi on production but I would not know how to automate its
installation.
I am sure the script can be improved.

This is the script, I've only added libapache2-mod-wsgi, now I'm trying to execute the script
in my secondary pc.
But: why do you install python 2.5 and not the default 2.6?

I think that we can improve the script so that the user could choose the database to install.

Also this script does nothing to configure postgres with users/permissions. So that will still need to be done
It can be added if the script can su to postgres user.

The script is supposed to be run as root so, it should have to problem
to sudo postgres

It should also configure ssl certificates.

The server works! But how can I verify if it run with wsgi? And how can I
access to the admin? Maybe that SSL doesn't work?

the script I sent does not use mod_wsgi and does not setup ssl.
I just said it should do those does things but it does not now.

I've tried the version that install wsgi, the one that I've send
to you. You should try it. So this script install a server ready
for web2py but without admin. I think this solution is better
for production environments!
The best should be a script that is distro agnostic and install
everything from source, and that let you choose the database engine.
I'm not enough expert of bash to make it but I could try.

Source installations are still prone to distro-specific problems. It is best to just create an install script for each distro..
Or better yet, create .deb/.rpm/.pacman/.portage packages for web2py that can do all of this :)

Google App Engine requires 2.5
I'm sure web2py will work with just 2.6 installed if it really bothers
somebody to install 2.5

I have had problems with running GAE dev_appserver and Python 2.6 (do
not remember what they were and I was using stackless 2.6).
Works fine with 2.5 of course.

That's so cool...but why so many unnecessary packages?
mc, g++, emacs, ssh, build_essential, zip, unzip, openssh-server,
postfix ???
Many of these are great packages and necessary for a well-run server
(except emacs, build_essential, g++), but do they belong in a web2py
install script?
My take is don't include:
- emacs because it furthers a religious debate
- g++ and build_essential because the script doesn't build anything
and you don't need built tools to run web2py and build tools can be
considered bad on a production box
