Hi Jeremy,
The "url" function that the tutorial uses now made an assumption that
the root of your application extends turbogears.controllers.Root.
However, the Root class that your TurboGears 0.5.1 quickstart gave you
did not. So, this error cropped up.
I added some text to the url function's docstring and the Getting
Started guide to make this clearer. I've also changed the url function
so that it will set cherrypy.request.approot to something somewhat
useful rather than failing outright.
In your controllers.py, you can add the following import:
from turbogears import controllers
and then change the declaration of your Root class to be:
class Root(controllers.Root):
You can also update to the just-released 0.8a3, if you want.
