Hello

I am forwarding this message on behalf of my colleague Athos Georgiou who is currently experiencing problems posting to this list

Kind regards

----------------------------------------

When I select preview dataset within the Ckan datasets section, the loading animation continues indefinitely. After some searching I found a discussion which describes the problem here:https://github.com/okfn/ckan/pull/1221 even though I do not get an error.

Having followed a response which lead here:https://github.com/okfn/ckan/commit/c8a483a77f82c4c8a545c569e87cd7843a3d92dcI have checked my action.py python file but have not found anything to indicate what could be causing the issue. I have enabled the filestore plugin in the config file but I suspect that the code in the next two lines may provide a hint on the issue as it involves database tables and user access to them.

ckan.datastore.write_url = postgresql://ckan_default:pass@localhost/datastore_default

ckan.datastore.read_url = postgresql://datastore_default:pass@localhost/datastore_default

I have checked my postgress databases and they confirm to the official CKAN source installation guide and file store setup found here: http://docs.ckan.org/en/latest/install-from-source.html

Also, I have enabled the datastore plugin and can confirm that files are uploaded and downloaded without issues.

Additionally, I have attached the first few lines of code from the execution of the paster command

(default)www-data at rescomp-dev-2:/etc/ckan/default$ paster serve /etc/ckan/default/development.ini Starting server in PID 13321.

The code above includes a newly uploaded file. The last 2 lines are shown when I click Explore/Preview and the loading icon remains in the loading animation until I click another form or button.

Any insight on what could be causing this indefinite loading animation?
