Just to be sure there is not mystery / this is clear:
When you start web2py from the console with no arguments, you are
asked to config various things (port, admin password);
You can also do this from the command line (in which case, no config-
gui comes up prior to starting the built-in server).
When you run from other than the built-in server, there is no setup:
the port and admin password must exist _somewhere_!
The way you create this information is to run from the console "once"
- because what this does is create a file:
parameters_{port_number}.py, which is then used at startup.
So (for example):
$ python web2py.py -a 'hello'
will create parameters_80.py (the default port is 80).
You can edit, or copy this file - if you want to use the same
password, but on port 432, just copy this file (for example) to:
parameters_432.py
In any case, the parameters file is used to supply "command-line"
parameters when not running from the command line.
Hope this takes the mystery out of it.
