Python, bottle, and now to debug

Question

This is from the docs......

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Interactive mode
    run(host='localhost', port=8049, debug=True)

This is the error I get. What did I miss?

Bottle server starting up (using WSGIRefServer(debug=True))...
Listening on http://localhost:8049/
Hit Ctrl-C to quit.
Shutdown...
Traceback (most recent call last):

Answer 1

The debug= parameter to run is only available since bottle version 0.11. Either update bottle (for example by simply downloading the up-to-date version, and placing it in the directory of your application), or remove debug=True by replacing

run(host='localhost', port=8049, debug=True)

with

run(host='localhost', port=8049)

Answer 2

For versions prior to 0.11, you can enable the debug mode by doing:

bottle.debug(True)
bottle.run(host='localhost', port=8049)
