Thank you!

same old error during pack all still show up said about cache directory.

step to produce an error:

download web2py source

extract and then run web2py

pack all welcome app

solution :

don't forget to create cache directory before you pack all your app

best regards,

@Massimo, I've just noticed that web2py 2.12.2 points to an old version of pydal. is that correct?

see https://github.com/web2py/web2py/tree/R-2.12.2/gluon/packages

That will only help when running web2py via the built-in development server, so would be of limited usefulness.

ecxept:

pickle.dumps(self)

Does anyone has any issues downloading the latest Source Code from web2py site?

Because when I do python web2py.py (running python 2.7) I get hit with the error:

\...\...\gluon\sqlhtml.py", line 32, in <module> from pydal.helpers.methods import smart_query, bar_encode, _repr_ref

ImportError: cannot import name _repr_ref.

I don't get to run the server.

I'd imagine you are running with an unpinned version of pydal. Travis and appveyor (our CI) are not failing.

Niphlod, I don't know what you just said, can you please break it down for me? What you mean unpinned version of pydal? I have a local version of pydal installed in my site packages.

any version of web2py is tested to run with a TAGGED version of pydal. You can't mix and match. For example, current web2py works with pydal 15.09 .

Ron did you download web2py from Github or from web2py site... The latter should prevent fromt this issue, but if you use Git repo, you need to update pyDAL submodule, that what Niphold is explaning...

I downloaded from web2py site. Anyway, I did pip uninstall pydal from my site packages and now it works fine. Somehow it was conflicting with the local pydal copy. Thanks for the help. I appreciate it!

Hello Ron,

Do you know virtualenv?

You can avoid this kind of issue with it...

Get started...

You are right. I should use venv. Haven't tried with web2py. But I agree.

You may still use web2py without venv, but consider using it for stuff like pyDAL...

:)

It all depends of your needs and number of projects you manage...

Even if venv is always a better idea, I would say as a rule of thumb, if you didn't face any issue, and only manage one app and only use web2py framework, you can keep going without venv... But if you have more than one app, more than one project, more than one framework, you need to use venv. If you don't you will one day or another lost track on what you have installed soon and being away from one project for sometimes you may experiment one day package issue when you get back and are in urgency to push update to a client which is not fun at all...

Hello.

I was running this script without problems with 2.9.13:

def add_phplist_user(f,id):
    auth_user = db.auth_user(id)
    #add user
    last_id = db_phplist.phplist_user_user.insert(
        email = auth_user.email,
        confirmed = auth_user.newsletter)
    phplist_listuser = db_phplist(db_phplist.phplist_listuser).select(orderby=db_phplist.phplist_listuser.id)
    last_phplist_listuser = phplist_listuser.last()
    db_phplist.phplist_listuser.insert(
        id = last_phplist_listuser.id + 1,
        userid = last_id,
        listid = 2)

db.auth_user._after_insert.append(lambda f,id: add_phplist_user(f,id))

Now with 2.12.3 I have this ticket:

Hard to say without more context, but looks like there is no phplist_user_user table defined on the db_phplist DAL object.

Could it be because in your select inside your function you not specifying any fields/columns (should be db_phplist.phplist_listuser.ALL)

Also you have a mix of db and db_phplist is the latter defined somewhere?

Thanks Anthony. In fact db_phplist tables where commented. Sorry.

Thanks Richard.

With:

db_phplist.phplist_listuser.ALL ticket was an SQL error:

ProgrammingError: (1064, "You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ' phplist_listuser.userid, phplist_listuser.listid ORDER BY phplist_listuser.id' at line 1")

But with:

db_phplist.phplist_listuser.id>0

It works.

Yes, I think web2py allow this : db(db.where_clause).select()

But there is nothing like being explicit... In SQL this won't work :

SELECT

FROM table_name

WHERE table_name.field_name = something

So...
