Well, that might have been the problem so I changed permissions. But, I still get communication error.
I gave the group in which web2py runs (www-data) rwx permissions to the module file in question. Also, to the modules directory, the specific application directory, and the web2py applications directory. Still get communication error. In general, what is the best advice for setting permissions? I suspect I've done this badly with potentially risky permissions. As of now I have: folder web2py in /var, owner root, group www-data, perms = rwxrwxr-x folder applications in web2py, ditto all folder thisapp in applications, ditto all folder modules, controllers, views in thisapp, ditto all file default.py in controllers, owner root, group www-data, perms = rw- rwxr-- This all seems a bit too permissive. For example, owner should not be root. Assuming I change owner to another user in sudousers, are the rest of the permissions appropriate? Thanks!
