I have a simple UI for interacting with a database set up on a Google 
AppEngine application using Web2Py. I'm using the default Grid builder to 
settings to display it. Here is my full controller function:

@auth.requires_login()def managePeople():

  # To hide the ID column from being seen on this page
  db.People.id.readable = False
  db.People.id.writable = False

  people = SQLFORM.grid(db.People, paginate = 15)

  # To allow for CSV imports on this page
  if request.vars.csvfile != None:
    db.People.import_from_csv_file(request.vars.csvfile.file)
    response.flash = 'Data uploaded'

  return dict(people=people)

I have over 15 records in the database, so when it's rendered it does 
correctly cut off just 15 people and displays the next button in the bottom 
of the grid. But when I click on it I get a: "Query Not Supported: Unknown 
configuration option ('cursor')" error. The resulting url was something 
like:

http://localhost:8080/peopleapp/ui/managePeople?cursor=Cursor%28%3CCjUSL2oWZGV2fmdyYWRzdHVkZW50Y2hlY2tpbnIVCxIIU3R1ZGVudHMYgICAgICAoAoMGAAgAA%3D%3D%3E%29&page=2&_signature=f3916524c6c595a8f15ed3acc2750b0d49af7702

I looked into this and apparently cursor is no longer an option in GAE 
according to this page: NDB Query Class 
<https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/ndb/queryclass>. I tried 
manually changing the option cursor in the url to "start_cursor" since this 
is one of the new supported options. After doing this it loads without any 
errors, but it just displays page 1 again instead of moving on to the 
second page.

At this point I was thoroughly confused and couldn't think of how to 
continue. Any suggestions or help is welcome. I'm sure I could build 
something like grid but I really don't want to if I have the option of 
using this robust built-in tool.
