I would hazard a guess that this was code you had written for TurboGears 0.5. It was not well documented (and I just fixed this in a couple of spots), but TurboGears detects the application root by looking for a class that extends turbogears.controllers.Root. tg-admin quickstart makes the new Root class extend that class, so new projects wouldn't have noticed an issue here. In order to make things smoother, I've changed it so that the approot is set to the site root by default. That should fix this error. If you ultimately do want your application to be able to move around in the URL hierarchy of a site, it would be a good idea to extend the controllers.Root class.
