[ckan-dev] Unable to set debug mode (or reload development.ini file)

[Vitor Baptista]

Hi John,

The error you get from running paster serve indicates that there's another
process using the same port as paster would use, most likely Apache. If you
stop apache and run the same paster command, does it work?

Try also to disable your custom theme and open CKAN on your browser again,
just to make sure that you're not overloading the themes that add the debug
information. You should see something like:

Controller : home
> Action : index


On the top left side on every page (the controller/action pair will depend
on the page you're looking).

Cheers,
