Hi, I also got this weird error today. The server had been working fine for weeks with the same application code and suddenly started displaying this error.
I checked the permissions and even did the recursive chown for the application folder as suggested above with no impact. This issue seems very weird to me as the index page (dynamic content) was displaying fine, including an auth login form. The "Internal Error: ticket issued unrecoverable" error appeared when I submitted the form with the login credentials or when I clicked on the standard login link (GET default/user/login). More details: -I ran the app in shell mode in parallel (python web2py.py -S appname -M) with no issues, including logging in manually using login_bare - worked fine. -Trying to connect to another application (admin) led directly to the error, not like the index of the app that would serve the landing page. -Logs were clean, no errors. The only thing that caught my attention was a malformed request that raised a routing issue (it interpreted a filename as an arg that expected an int), this happened several minutes before the issue. Not sure if it's related at all, but I will try to reproduce it during off-hours. -I also restarted the webserver...error persisted (Apache 2.2 through wsgi - Web2py 1.99.7, apparently just like the OP) -No code/configuration changes, the system had been running fine for weeks. -The only thing that helped was rebooting the whole server, then the app behaved properly, no issues, including admin. Any troubleshooting tips?, I can not risk the app failing suddenly for no specific reason as I am sure you understand...any help is appreciated.
