[albatross-users] .6 prerequisite of python2.?

[Lewis Bergman]

The following makes me wonder if some version of python other than what is 
listed in the manual (1.5.2) is required to enable all of albatross .6 to 
work as described?

I was trying some of the installed samples and I ran across several 
tracebacks with popview4. (The session server one).

Most were name errors and some attribute errors. 
Here is an example from the al-session-deamon:

Server starting at Mon Mar 18 15:27:26 2002
new client: 5 from 127.0.0.1
client 5 cmd: new popview4 1800
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "./simpleserver.py", line 276, in handle_command
    sesid = self.make_sesid(words[1])
  File "./simpleserver.py", line 256, in make_sesid
    sesid = binascii.hexlify(text)
AttributeError: hexlify
del client: 5

And some from the client:

Template traceback (most recent call last):

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/albatross/app.py", line 165, in run
    self.load_session(ctx)
  File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/albatross/app.py", line 227, in 
load_session
    ctx.load_session()
  File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/albatross/session.py", line 67, in 
load_session
    sesid = self.app.new_session()
  File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/albatross/session.py", line 168, in 
new_session
    return self._server_read_response()
  File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/albatross/session.py", line 145, in 
_server_read_response
    raise SessionServerError('Session server returned: %s' % resp)
SessionServerError: Session server returned: ERROR session server failure - 
check logs

I first changed al-session-deamon to use 2.2 from 1.5.2 (I am on a RH7.2 sys)
And that changed the client from a session server error to a name error (I 
think). It was involving a call to cookie I believe.

No big deal if it is, I just would like to know.
