[ckan-dev] Updated Code is Not Being Run During Development (Ckan and Spatial Plugin)

Mon Nov 21 16:08:15 UTC 2016

Hi Matt,

Thank you for the nice reply.

I am embarrassed to say, but I had a case of PEBKAC (Problem Exists Between
Keyboard and Chair).

I am new to python and the ckan environment/framework and I did not realize
that I had accidentally started ~8 instances of the spacial fetcher and
harvester running all at once and that it really was a crap shoot on which
one was being called and of course each instance had different code running
for it...  It was confusing.  :)

SO, instead of running the harvesters (fetch and gather) individually, I
have started running the "paster harvester run_test" command and that
process has been working much better.

And to answer your question.  We installed the harvester and spatial
plugins according to the directions provided on github/the plugin website.
I was running the fetcher/harvester commands by hand and using our
development.ini file.

Thank you again for your reply.

Regards,

Nathan
