DAL does not cache anything unless you explicit pass "cache" argument to select()
db(db.config.name=='api_key').select(db.config.value, cache=(cache.ram, 50)).first().value Are you sure the value has changed in database? Are you assigning the returned value in to a to level class attribute? it can be fixed in the compiled script you are running, if you are doing this with a class do it as an instance variable. if you open web2py in shell mode $python web2py.py -S yourapp -M And performs the query, what is the value returned?
