[ckan-dev] Archiver archive_dir and cache_url_root: SOLVED

[McDonaldR]

After much trial and error I sorted out the configuration in nginx config file and production.ini so I'm posting here for the record.

Nginx - change it from this:

    # Archived Files
    location /resource_cache {
        root /usr/share/nginx/html/resource_cache;
    }

To this:

    # Archived Files
    location /resource_cache {
        root /usr/share/nginx/html;
    }

Production.ini - change it from this:


*        ckanext-archiver.archive_dir = /usr/share/nginx/html/resource_cache

*        ckanext-archiver.cache_root_url = http://opendata.angus.gov.uk/resource_cache

To this:


*        ckanext-archiver.archive_dir = /usr/share/nginx/html/resource_cache

*        ckanext-archiver.cache_root_url = http://opendata.angus.gov.uk/resource_cache/

The download cached content link now works on the resource page

Simple changes!

Hi List,

I've create the following directory (owned by www-data) for the archiver plugin:

/usr/share/nginx/html/resource_cache

This has sub-directories like


*        26/someresourceid/kml

*        2f/someotherresourceid/ows

*        etc

I have set the following in my production.ini


*        ckanext-archiver.archive_dir = /usr/share/nginx/html/resource_cache

*        ckanext-archiver.cache_root_url = http://opendata.angus.gov.uk/resource_cache

My nginx config file looks like this:

    # Archived Files
    location /resource_cache {
        root /usr/share/nginx/html/resource_cache;
    }

The download URL presented in the archive section of the resources page looks like this:

http://opendata.angus.gov.uk/98/987c7253-0da3-4dba-8bb1-f871a2de31ee/kml but I get a 404 not found from CKAN

If I amend the URL to include "resource_cache"

http://opendata.angus.gov.uk/resource_cache/98/987c7253-0da3-4dba-8bb1-f871a2de31ee/kml I also get a 404 not found but from Nginx

Archiver is working correctly as the cache resources are created in the defined directory and qa.update_package sniffs out the correct file format in the correct directory but the link presented by the frontend resource template is not correct.  Any suggestions gratefully received.

Thanks

Ross
