The file is named 0_redefine_url.py and is in my applications/init/
models folder. It contains:
_URL=URL
def URL(*a,**b):
if not 'secure' in b:
return _URL(*a,**b)
elif b['secure']:
del b['secure']
return 'https://'+request.env.http_host + _URL(*a,**b)
else:
del b['secure']
return 'http://'+request.env.http_host + _URL(*a,**b)
Here is the complete traceback:
