[ckan-dev] CKAN on Ubuntu 14.04

Thu May 1 19:33:59 UTC 2014

Hello,

If it can be of any interest for the crowd, I've installed CKAN 2.2 on
Ubuntu 14.04. It works with 2 small changes needed:

- There is a strange dependency issue for Solr (nothing directly related to
CKAN). In order to have solr working correctly with the versions currently
available as package, it might be needed to add
"/usr/share/java/tomcat-coyote.jar" in the file /etc/jetty/start.config
(else Jetty fails at start time). I guess it will be solved in future
packages.

- A new version of apache requires a new directory directive to allow
users. In the virtual server block, one have to add

<Directory />
Options All
AllowOverride All
*Require all granted*
</Directory>

Else apache refuses access (403). It seems to be there to stay. Note the
"require all granted" does not work on older version (2.2 and before -
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/upgrading.html) so make sure not to use
it on older releases.
