[ckan-discuss] Some problems installing ckan

[Ruben Martin]

Thanks for the response Rufus

We followed the current package installation instructions in the web
manual, so version is 1.5.1 (and so appears below in the footer of the
pages)

Yes, I am logged in when i try to upload a file. But after the selection of
a file and before i click on the Add button, this message appears:
"Failed to get credentials for storage upload. Upload cannot proceed"
Maybe it is trying to connect with Webstore ?

I have just deny visitors the create-user permission:
sudo -u ckanstd paster --plugin=ckan roles deny reader create-user -c
/etc/ckan/std/std.ini
sudo -u ckanstd paster --plugin=ckan roles deny anon_editor create-user -c
/etc/ckan/std/std.ini

and after restarting, the register link is *not* hidden, but now when you
access the register page, it shows you this message "Unauthorized to create
a user" (when not logged in). But anyway that is an improvement.
