Got it. As always, thank you Massimo.
I changed in db1.py
auth.define_tables(username=True, signature=True)
to
auth.define_tables(username=False, signature=True)
But in the log in it still ask me for user name.
Also I get an error when I try to register.
pydal\helpers\classes.py", line 18, in __init__
return self.__dict__.__init__(*args, **kwargs)
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable
