You're welcome. It also helps if you build a virtual environment for developing your apps. Keeps things clean. First you get virtualenv package with: $ easy_install-2.7 virtualenv Then you just run this: $ virtualenv --no-site-packages /path/to/my/env $ cd /path/to/my/env $ source bin/activate (env) $ python You'll notice that the interpreter version is now 2.7.x within the env, and that '(env)' is printed before your prompt. As far as I know, you cannot exit the environment other than by exiting the shell altogether. The environment is sealed off from your local Python install, so anything that you install within your environment is available only within the environment and if you use the ``--no-site-packages`` flag, no packages installed in your local Python path will not be accessible within the environment. Now, to develop with web2py within the virtualenv, you just copy web2py dir into the virtualenv dir, and that's it. Now you can run ``./web2py.py`` normally and web2py will use the interpreter installed in the env. -- Branko Vukelic [email protected] http://www.brankovukelic.com/
