That is handled here 
<https://github.com/web2py/web2py/blob/master/applications/welcome/static/js/web2py.js#L240>in
 
web2py.js (the error message itself is set in web2py_ajax.html 
<https://github.com/web2py/web2py/blob/master/applications/welcome/views/web2py_ajax.html#L7>,
 
though web2py.js does not provide a default value in case web2py_ajax.html 
is not included in the page).

If you don't want to edit web2py.js, I think you can add this to your 
layout (or wherever on the parent page):

<script>
$(function() {
  $(document).off('ajaxError');
});
</script>

Of course, that will cancel any other previously defined ajaxError handlers 
as well (e.g., if you are using some third party library that adds this 
handler). Alternatively, you could add your own handler to hide the flash 
div.

Anyway, this message should probably be optional or configurable -- maybe 
submit a github issue requesting that.
