I added it to default.py controller, so it is working as an action there. When i go to that URL (.../default/excel_report), the file downloads as "excel_report" with no extension. I am testing using Mac OS, so not sure if that matters. The file is fine. When i rename it with the .xls extension it opens in my spreadsheet application.
