[annotator-dev] New dev and my first problem

Mon Jul 25 08:19:13 UTC 2011

Hi All,

I work for a company that creates open educational resources and tools for
educators and students. I've been given the task to make our books
annotatable using the annotator software.

I have checked out the latest git source for the annotator-store and tried
to run it using the instructions on the website. When I get to the "python
run.py" step I get the following:

(pyenv)ewald at ewald-laptop:~/programming/annotator-store$ python run.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "run.py", line 6, in <module>
    setup_app()
  File "/home/ewald/programming/annotator-store/annotator/app.py", line 23,
in setup_app
    model.init_model(app.config)
  File "/home/ewald/programming/annotator-store/annotator/model/couch.py",
line 18, in init_model
    Metadata.DB = setup_db(config['COUCHDB_DATABASE'])
  File "/home/ewald/programming/annotator-store/annotator/model/couch.py",
line 21, in setup_db
    if dbname in Metadata.SERVER:
  File
"/home/ewald/programming/annotator-store/pyenv/lib/python2.6/site-packages/couchdb/client.py",
line 93, in __contains__
    self.resource.head(validate_dbname(name))
  File
"/home/ewald/programming/annotator-store/pyenv/lib/python2.6/site-packages/couchdb/http.py",
line 377, in head
    return self._request('HEAD', path, headers=headers, **params)
  File
"/home/ewald/programming/annotator-store/pyenv/lib/python2.6/site-packages/couchdb/http.py",
line 419, in _request
    credentials=self.credentials)
  File
"/home/ewald/programming/annotator-store/pyenv/lib/python2.6/site-packages/couchdb/http.py",
line 239, in request
    resp = _try_request_with_retries(iter(self.retry_delays))
  File
"/home/ewald/programming/annotator-store/pyenv/lib/python2.6/site-packages/couchdb/http.py",
line 205, in _try_request_with_retries
    raise e
socket.error: [Errno 111] Connection refused

I'm running on Ubuntu 10.10 32-bit. Any help in this regard will be greatly
appreciated.
