not initially when I download and unzip the source code. however as soon as I run the command 'python web2py.py', the NEWINSTALL file goes away and the folder web2py/deposit does get created (and it is empty).
in the admin section of web2py I then try to import the file 'web2py.plugin.wiki.w2p.gz' with the application name of 'plugin_wiki'. at this point i get the error stating 'unable to install application "plugin_wiki"', but the 'plugin_wiki.tar' file gets added to the 'web2py/deposit' folder. does that help? thanks, Will On Nov 19, 3:42 pm, mdipierro <[email protected]> wrote: > Is there a folder web2py/deposit? > > On Nov 19, 2:28 pm, Will Stevens <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > > > > > I have tried both version 1.89.4 and the nightly build.
