[[TOC]]
== Installation issues ==
 * Check the version of Python
 * Check the version of Web2Py that was used for the Sahana release you downloaded
 * Check the permissions of the web2py and Sahana application files
 * Check {{{models/000_config.py}}} connection string to see that it is either sqllite or a valid mysql connection on your machine

=== Problem while importing appliance Eden-VM.zip file ===
If error received during importing appliance process,
 * Check the version of Eden-VM.zip for the latest build
 * Ensure Eden-VM.zip not corrupted
 * Download the appliance again.
 * Import appliance again.
 * Review ApplianceError_RR.doc attachment for step by step view and environment summary.

== Update issues ==

  * Check the database connection settings in {{{models/000_config.py}}}
  * Clear the /sessions directory - Lingering sessions on your browser can cause issues after an update
  * Clear the /databases directory
  * Drop and Create the database if mysql
  * Restart Web2Py
  * Check the version of Web2Py that was used for the source branch that you merged from  

== Data Migration ==

  * see DataMigration

== IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied ==

This happens with cygwin patch on Win32.

Solution is to copy the file on filesystem to another name, then delete original & rename back.

== iter() returned non-iterator of type '_timelex' ==
If this occurs when importing date fields then it's due to an incorrect version of the Python dateutil module (should be 1.5, this error occurs with 2.0)

== Ticket: unknown ==
If you get a Ticket but Web2Py cannot write it to the screen then check stderr as Web2Py will write it out there

== IPython won't support ==
{{{ImportError: cannot import name path}}}

Remove the path.py from site-packages which is installed by numpy

== Firefox issues ==
When using Firefox, the symptom is that Ext fails to load properly giving bizarre errors (can be missing several lines in the middle of the file!)

This is caused by a corrupt profile which can be fixed using:

== Chrome issues ==
