[ckan-dev] File Upload Hugs ckan 1.7

Fri Jul 27 06:35:19 UTC 2012

@ Rjufus
I have defined the file type as a csv but still the problem persists.

@ Adrià
The Process for enabling the data store requires Nginx as the deployment web
server , is it possible  to have data store  work on Apache or do I first
have to deploy Ckan on Nginx  first?

The problem may be that you are trying to pass a file which was uploaded to
your server (so it has a
http://localhost:5000/storage/f/...) to the DataProxy, which is an external
service (it lives at http://jsonpdataproxy.appspot.com/) and does not have
access to your computer.

This will work if you were on a publicly accessible instance
(http://yoursite.ckan.org or similar).

Note that the CSV preview works as follows:

1 - If the file has been uploaded to the local datastore, this is used to
query the data
2 - If not, the file is queried via the DataProxy

You are on point 2, so the proper fix is probably installing and configuring
the datastore (and the datastorer extension), as per these
instructions:
