Similar situation can happen when you try to access admin page through
simple http protocol over network. Web2py will raise exception and we got
that error:
TypeError: sequence of byte string values expected, value of type str found
Code responsible for that error is:
if request.is_https:
session.secure()
elif (remote_addr not in hosts) and (remote_addr != "127.0.0.1") and \
(request.function != 'manage'):
raise HTTP(200, T('appadmin is disabled because insecure channel'))
One solution is to erase all of this and just put session.secure() but this
is not good idea and can be use only for testing.
Source of problem is combination of T() and HTTP() helper. In production I
just remove T() helper like this:
raise HTTP(200, 'appadmin is disabled because insecure channel')
and that solve my problem. Maybe someone have beter solution for that
problem?
Of course, this will happen in all situation when web2py raise HTTP() with
T() as argument. So to avoid that I just use string as argument without T()
helper.
