[ckan-dev] datastore installation

Tue Jan 22 17:46:23 UTC 2013

Hi Kim,

first, I'd suggest, you use the first option [1] since it will do most things for you. The script is intended for advanced setups that require separate servers for CKAN and the databases. 

That said, you should set the correct names in the sql script. For instance, you should set "ckantest" instead of "{ckantest}". That should solve "role "{ckanuser}" does not exist" issue.

We recently updated the setup instructions and you can find the latest version at [2]. There are step-by step instructions that help you set up your datastore. 

Best wishes,
Dominik
