[ckan-discuss] HTTP 500 error when adding a new package using the API

Sun May 22 19:50:20 BST 2011

Hello

I do not seem to get a 500 for that request with my api key.

The only issue is that there is already a package named "test" in the
database.  The reply to the request gives me.

{"name": ["Package name already exists in database"]}

So it may be something odd with the api key.
