[ckan-dev] one question about setting up ckan

Tue Jan 8 12:41:18 UTC 2013

Hello everyone,
         My name is David. Now i am studying CKAN data management
system. I use "Option 1: Package Installation " method to install
CKAN, and the website is
"http://docs.ckan.org/en/ckan-1.8/install-from-package.html".
         But after the installation, I Create a new instance like this
command :"sudo ckan-create-instance std default.vm.buildkit yes". No
error is appears. But when i input the address in the Firefox browser
like this "http://localhost/default.vm.buildkit/", no login page
appears.
         I check the apache log file like this "sudo vi -f
/var/log/apache2/std.error.log" and the content is below :
"

"
         I also check the "/etc/apache2/sites-available/std.common"
file, and the content is below:
"
    DocumentRoot /var/lib/ckan/std/static
    ServerName default.vm.buildkit

    <Directory />
        # XXX Should this be deny? We get a "Client denied by server
configuration" without it
        allow from all
    </Directory>
....................................

         I check the ckan directory content as below, but the
DocumentRoot(/var/lib/ckan/std/static) directory has not any ckan
login files :
"

        Can you help me solve this problem? And where is the problem?
        Thank you very much for your help.
