hi,

I'm a newbie with Twisted, and having messed around a bit with Tisted-1.3.0, I recently moved over to Twisted Web2.

Sounds like there's some confusion here. There's Twisted 2.0, the successor to Twisted 1.3. Then there's Twisted Web2, the yet-unreleased successor to Twisted Web. Twisted Web2 almost certainly will not work with Twisted 1.3. If you want to try out Web2, you need to install Twisted 2.0.

Yes, am aware of that, am using Web2 with Twisted2, cldnt install otherwise.

a few things did'nt work (like they did in Twisted-1.3.0:

1. I can't seem to 'mktap web' anymore, the reply I get is Unknown command: web

without web.tap, how do I run a .rpy resource? I find this useful for testing and debugging.

Once you install the right version of various things, you should regain the ability to make web taps. However, these will not give you a Web2 server. You may not even want a Web2 server, though. It's not clear whether you were attempting to experiment with Twisted 2.0 or Twisted Web2.

Well the Web server generated form mktap was useful for experimenting and testing. Assuming I got the right things insatlled and running, the previous questions still apply. Wld still need and appreciate answers for those.. ;-) many thanks.

2. I managed to build my resource apps. into python modules, but I miss being able to get tracebacks on the browser for debugging. Can I get the browser to display Tracebacks? 3. What will be the root directory for the twisted web app, assuming the app is in a dir. like: /var/www/html/, and run with twistd -ny someapp.py from that dir. I need this because my references to styles etc... no longer work. I have tried defining first as relative, then as absolute paths, but it still dose'nt work. 4. I can't seem to sepcifiy a path for the logfile, if I follow the example given in the docs. site = server.Site(static.File(WWWROOT), logPath=LOGPATH) I get an error: Failed to load application: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'logPath' Would appreciate it very much if soemone could shed some light on this. Am starting on a new project and wld like to give twisted.web2 a whirl... When I get all this to work.. will do up some docs and post this up... perhaps it could contribute to TechnoTurkey http://twisted.paisite.com which I came across on this list.. thanks boh.
