[web2py] Re: Problem with auth_login: too many redirects

[man24]

Here is the model file - > db2.py 

# coding: utf8
db.define_table('page',
        Field('title', requires=IS_NOT_IN_DB(db, 'page.title')),
        Field('body', 'text', requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()),
        Field('created_on', 'datetime', default=request.now, 
readable=False, writable=False),
        Field('created_by', db.auth_user, default=auth.user_id, 
readable=False, writable=False),
        format='%(title)s')
        
db.define_table('comment',
        Field('page_id', db.page, readable=False, writable=False),
        Field('body', 'text', requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()),
        Field('created_on', 'datetime', default=request.now, 
readable=False, writable=False),
        Field('created_by', db.auth_user, 
default=auth.user_id,readable=False, writable=False))
        
db.define_table('document',
        Field('page_id', db.page, readable=False, writable=False),
        Field('name', requires=IS_NOT_IN_DB(db, 'document.name')),
        Field('file', 'upload'),
        Field('created_on', 'datetime', default=request.now, 
readable=False, writable=False),
        Field('created_by', db.auth_user, default=auth.user_id, 
readable=False, writable=False),
        format='%(name)s')

Here is the controller: 

def index():
    pages = db().select(db.page.id, db.page.title, orderby=db.page.title)
    return dict(pages=pages)
    
@auth.requires_login()
def create():
    form=crud.create(db.page, next=URL('index'))
    return dict(form=form)
    
def show():
    this_page = db.page(request.args(0)) or redirect(URL('index'))
    db.comment.page_id.default = this_page.id
    form = crud.create(db.comment) if auth.user else None
    pagecomments = db(db.comment.page_id==this_page.id).select()
    return dict(page=this_page, comments=pagecomments, form=form)

@auth.requires_login()
def edit():
    this_page = db.page(request.args(0)) or redirect(URL('index'))
    form = crud.update(db.page, this_page, next=URL('show', 
args=request.args))
    return dict(form=form)
    
@auth.requires_login()
def documents():
    page = db.page(request.args(0)) or redirect(URL('index'))
    db.document.page_id.default = page.id
    db.document.page_id.writable = False
    grid = SQLFORM.grid(db.document.page_id==page.id, args=[page.id])
    return dict(page=page, grid=grid)
    
@auth.requires_login()
def user():
    """
    exposes:
    http://..../[app]/default/user/login

    use @auth.requires_login()

        @auth.requires_permission('read','table name',record_id)
    to decorate functions that need access control
    """
    return dict(form=auth())

Here are the views:
