= Installation on MacOSX =

=== Download Sahana Eden ===
If NOT being a Developer, then you can get the last stable release from:
 * http://launchpad.net/sahana-eden/trunk/0.5/+download/web2py.app.eden-0.5.0.w2p
NB The file should end in .w2p - if you have a trailing .gz after that, then remove it from the filename

=== Install Web2Py ===
 * Download: http://web2py.com/examples/static/web2py_osx.zip
 * unzip

NB This isn't well-tested...may be better off downloading the Source version:
 * http://eden.sahanafoundation.org/web2py_src-1.85.3.zip
=== Launch Web2Py ===
 * {{{web2py.exe}}}
 * Select a Password
 * 'click here for the administrative interface'
 * Enter same password

=== Install Sahana ===
 * upload application: web2py.app.eden-0.4.8.w2p
 * rename it: eden
 * submit

=== Done! ===
 * http://127.0.0.1:8000/eden/

=== Trouble? ===
 * {{{lxml}}} can give trouble on OS X.  Try:
  * {{{STATIC_DEPS=true sudo easy_install lxml}}} (adapted from [http://blog.ianbicking.org/2008/12/10/lxml-an-underappreciated-web-scraping-library/ this blog post])
  * remove other {{{libxml2}}} versions, such as may have been installed by {{{fink}}} or !MacPorts
