I have a file of .w2py format, I uploaded it in web2py and generated an error "Unable to install application". Could you help me upload it or can I open or view the folders inside the .w2py, please.

The file name should be  myFile.w2p not w2py. It is just a tar.gz file.

Yes, I'm wrong with the name of the format, but how can I install it in web2py, what happens is that they passed me a file.w2p and I reinstalled it in web2py because it generated an error "unabled to install application" .

like marco said, it's just tar.gz file, think you can extract it in web2py/applications folder with the command (not tested)
tar -xzvf web2py_file.w2p 

best regards,

Is it an app or a plugin?, What's the original file name?.

Marco.

I confirm. I use that all the time (but there is no dash)

tar zxvf web2py_app.w2p
