[ckan-dev] DataStorer and preview troubleshooting

[David Raznick]

Hello Jim

The error looks like it is to do with the datastorer.  It not guessing
the url of ckan correctly and when it trying to report back to ckan it
is falling over.

Is the instance you have under some suburl or not root path? i.e ckan
lives under http://domain.com/ckan

The datastorer may think that ckan is at http://domain.com and that
causes the error.  We have fixed this before but it is very dependant
on what the webserver sends to ckan in order for it know its hostname.

Thanks

David
