thanks Massimo, now it works like a charm (despite it seems to be old code).
I wonder, how should I (as a Newbie) know that it's "old code" ? Wouldn't it be a good suggestions to put a "last modified date" for each appliance, or better on every page ? I don't understand why the whole internet is so anxious about putting a date somewhere. Every piece of paper I write on, I start with my name and the date at the upper left corner, which is quit common in my country (and I also do it on every webpage I write ;-) cheers, Stef On 24-07-2010 09:47, mdipierro wrote: > I looked at it. that app is really really old and uses its own > (broken) authentication mechanism. > > I looked at it and think I fixed it. > > http://web2py.com/appliances/default/show/34 > > Give it a try and report any problem. > > Massimo > > On Jul 23, 5:15 pm, Stef Mientki <[email protected]> wrote: >> hello, >> >> I just started with web2py (after a long period of doubt, which to choose, >> Django or Web2Py) >> and it looks really great, although the first steps looks difficult. >> >> I tried to install the appliance chat (did anyone used this application >> already?) >> At first sight chat looked great, >> but after logging out, I couldn't log in anymore. >> I retried and the same effect occurred. >> >> So I went to another computer, >> and made a fresh install of chat, >> now chat didn't have any layout. >> >> Can anyone enlighten me on the above problems ? >> >> btw, is there somekind of filebrowser / viewer, I feel very uncomfortable >> with so many files ;-) >> >> thanks, >> Stef Mientki
