[ckan-dev] Apache HTTP authentication

Thu Dec 12 17:50:10 UTC 2013

Hi,

After installation of CKAN, I have created a user/password at the Apache
level following the instructions at
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/auth.html. I am currently using 2.1
version of CKAN.

I am running into two problems after this:
1. The user, created at Apache level ( described above ) is getting logged
into CKAN, even though that user was not created in CKAN.

2. On trying to log out, I am getting a 500 error. The apache log for this
error states:

 Error - <type 'exceptions.KeyError'>: 'repoze.who.plugins'
