Unable to start web2py - python-3.x

I installed Web2py on my machine. When I click web2py.exe, a console appears for a second and disappears. Nothing more than that. What must be missing?

As per different blog post, the latest web2py version is broken. You can download an older version from the the for the time being. For my case, I am now started with a older version.
Download older version from here

It seems to be broken. However, you can download the source and run it like this:
python web2py.py
There's a discussion mentioning the problem on the web2py group and Nico Zanferrari has a fix in his repository.

SpringSource Toolsuite: Huge icons after todays update

im running a linux box with gtk3 and was re-installing my STS today.
I was choosing the x64 version based on eclipse 4.6 and everything went fine after starting the new installed STS version.
Then i decided to check for updates and was installing the suggested packages (i didnt install any own custom packages/plugins yet).
After the restart the GUI seems to be broken. Please see the Screenhot: http://imgur.com/0lAtByT
Im working already since some years with STS on Linux but never found this strange behavior. Anyone a idea what could fix this problem?
Try:
-Dswt.enable.autoScale=false
when starting STS.

Eclipse Workspace not recognized after clean install

I just made a clean install, as I do every year, of my linux system (ubuntu) on my notebook.
I just wanted to open-up eclipse from my (old) workspace, where all my code from the past 12 months is - but eclipse doesn't show a single package!
My assumption is that I used an older version of eclipse up until yesterday before the clean install, and that the version I installed today is newer, thereby doesn't recognize my worksapce(s!). Is this assumption correct? if so, Does anyone know how I can figure out which version of Eclipse I was using when working on the old Workspace, so that I can download that exact same version again?
The absolut worst-case scenario would be to c/p all classes and packages manually into the new eclipse, but it's over a 1000 classes - so that might be too time-consumming.
An help would be greatly appreciated, since there actually are 2 projects from work in those workspaces... ^^
Well, after Downloading Eclipse Mars, I found a solution. Although switching workspaces, or even importing the old workspaces didn't work, I found out that if I started eclipse from the old workspace, even though package explorer would stay empty, it would suffice to define a new java project with the exact same name of one of the projects inside the old workspace, for eclipse to instantly load-up the docs contents.
This not as much a solution, then a work-around... but still, fixed the problem!

Install older version of Cygwin

Is there any way I can go back and install a older version of Cygwin?
Say I want the 1.7.9 version, but the setup.exe in the Cygwin website always point to the latest release?
http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe will always point to the latest release. The only previous release available at cygwin.com is the 'setup-legacy' file, which is version 1.5.25 and is compatible with older versions of Windows. Downloading older versions of Cygwin is discouraged because of incompatibility with the latest available packages.
That said, if you are certain you want an older version of setup.exe, the only way to get it would be to find the file mirrored elsewhere. Simply google the specific version you want, and you should be able to easily find what you are looking for. download.cnet.com, for example, has many previous releases: see for yourself.
In summary, there is no 'official' way to get previous Cygwin releases, so you will have to find a mirror of that specific release.
Yes, see this answer but ignore the parts about Postgres
https://serverfault.com/a/532412/123651
Install an old version if you have to. Someone maintains a historical archive of Cygwin versions.
Browse the time stamp of the setup.ini file you need: http://www.crouchingtigerhiddenfruitbat.org/Cygwin/timemachine.html
Copy the address of the folder (not index.html)
Run /setup-x86.exe -X with the -X option to ignore setup signatures (they aren't archived).
Paste the address into the dialog to choose your download site. You will then see a snapshot of packages available during that time.
Then pick the Cygwin base package to get an older version.
Download any setup version from https://cygwin.com/setup/

SVN 1.7.1 Issue

I have just upgraded to SVN 1.7.1 and I have had nothing but problems trying to get my netbeans and everything else to work with it. I have tried 'svn upgrade' but I get an error which is as follows:
C:\wamp\Projects>svn upgrade BMPortal
svn: E155019: Can't upgrade 'C:\wamp\Projects\BMPortal' as it is not a
pre-1.7 working copy directory
svn: E150000: Missing default entry
Could anyone suggest a way to fix this. The reason why I am trying to upgrade is because my netbeans says:
The Path 'C:\wamp\Projects\BMPortal' appears to be part of a
Subversion 1.7 or greater working copy. Please upgrade your Subversion
client to use this working copy.
As I have upgraded my SVN Client to 1.7, I don't know why it is still moaning at me.
Just FYI:
The SVN Server is on an Arch Linux box running UberSVN.
The client (my computer) is Windows 7 64bit.
I actually had the very same problem (or at least the same error message!).
After trying everything you have said earlier and not getting any results, I realise that I had copied some files to the project that contains svn files from an older (1.6) version. I delete the 1.6 folders and the everything worked fine again.
I hope this could help some other people too!
Best regards,
Andrés
Your Netbeans installation seems to use another SVN-Client as the one when you type svn on the console.
So you have to upgrade your Netbeans-Subversion plugin too.
Sorry to waste your time guys, I have finally found a work around for this, http://netbeans.org/projects/versioncontrol/pages/Subversion1_7
But thanks again all the same! It's much appreciated!
SVN v1.7.0 and above uses a new working copy file format, so you need to upgrade your working copy to the new format. If you right-click the folder in Windows Explorer, the TortoiseSVN context menu items should show only "SVN Upgrade working copy" - click that to upgrade it.
Warning: If you use any other SVN apps as well as TortoiseSVN on the same PC, they may not work with the new working copy file format.
It's worth upgrading in my opinion though - must faster, better merging, better dialogs and error reporting, etc!

Where is the installation download for Subsonic 2.2?

Anyone know why I can't download the subsonic website development tool install anymore?
It only shows a source download. Does anyone have a link to a full install download?
Oh he's back - Eric's going to work up his installer. Maybe next week.
Download the latest 2.1 release. Then download the 2.2 zip and copy the files over the 2.1 installation.
The reason you can't get a 2.2 install is because the developer that used to contribute that to the project, took a hiatus from contributing. Although there's a rumor he's back, so it may happen eventually.
I eventually found the correct download location. Thanks for all the help.
http://code.google.com/p/subsonicproject/ Looks like it has moved over to google code.
