There is a bug with version 1.99.7 especially if you want to use
postgresql. If you don't have psycopg2 installed then it will give the an
error about get can't find .... you need to change the connection string if
you want to use the built in driver that comes with this version of web2py,
I have posted about this a while back.

If your error is this: AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'get'

Then this is the problem:

Line 1999 in trunk:
                 self.driver = drivers.get('pg8000')
Should be:
                 self.driver = self.drivers.get('pg8000')
