SOLVED.
I found this question [1] from 2010 and this is still causing some
confusion. :-(
I just fixed my routes.py as you can see below:
```
# web2py/applications/myapp/routes.py
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
app = '/myapp'
routes_in = (
('/$anything', app + '/$anything'),
)
routes_out = (
(app + '/$anything', '/$anything'),
)
```
