Well, I was able to kill the perpetrator (on Fedora "nasd" was taking port 8000) and started web2py using the default port. The demodb app runs fine now. I am still trying to figure out how to configure web2py to use database drivers other than SQLite3. I already have firebird server installed on my machine. But I guess I need some configuration parameter so the web2py can find it. Can anyone help?
