pythonanywhere.com is great, but I put my trust in amazon ec2

Difficult to beat that : "... There's even a useful free plan."

Don't know if web2py can be hosted for free, but I guest yes...

I don't know if you're reporting it down because you need it now
or just to report it's down. FWIW you can download the book and it
is a web2py app and you can view it locally. Good for planes, trains and
automobiles too.

The book is on github.

It is not down but we have some DNS issues.

www.web2py.com works fine
www.web2py.com/books works fine
www.web2py.com/book was not redirecting and now fixed
web2py.com worked yesterday but not today. Trying to find out why not redirecting.

Well, web2py.com with and without www resolves from my location (EU). DNS query shows A records at dns1.vps.net and dns2.vps.net for both, pointing at the same IPs, etc..

I can also reach the web site at both addresses, the book app works for me now... So both DNS and VPS settings seem ok now.

I can do further tests if needed.

Ales

Could you provide a link?  I would very much like to work offline at times, and the PDF is falling further and further behind.

Actually, I wish the current version of the online html book would just be included in the download as a webapp by default.

The book is too big to be included in every download, IMHO, it's about 120 MB or so.

The link... well, github -> search -> web2py book ;)

Holy moly... didn't realize it was that portly! I'd be curious as to
where all the MB are coming from? Guess I'll download it and find out ;)

Thanks... I was looking in the main web2py github and not finding
anything about it so I wasn't sure where to look next.

If you choose 1 lang, the size is much smaller

I installed 3 languages (ENU, CHN DEU) locally, total size = 30MB
so it is about 10MB/per lang

Most of it is images. They are repeated. They should not be.

So... this is supposed to be installable as an app within web2py, right?

It's not a w2p file, so I can't install it directly as a package file.  I tried renaming the original zip file I downloaded to a .w2p extension, nada.  Tried extracting and then repackaging as a .tar.gz file... nada.  Tried renaming *that* as a .w2p file... which finally installed, but as soon as I tried opening the application from web2py, I got a page saying "invalid controller (default/index)"

Trying to install directly from git appears to require 'gitpython', which I installed (via git), but web2py still complains about it being 'not available or incompatible version' (running python 2.7.3, git 1.7.10, web2py 2.3.2, on Ubuntu 12.10).

Any other suggestions?

download the zip, decompress in applications/, choose an application name without - in it (so, web2py_book vs web2py-book).

Thanks, got it going per Niphlod's instructions from the zip file I had downloaded earlier.

Anybody have any insight on the gitpython problem I was having?
