[ckan-discuss] Failed to initialise CKAN database

[Richard.Goh at csiro.au]

Hi Adria,

Many thanks for your reply. I managed to get v2.0 and v2.1 installed on Ubuntu 12.04.

In addition, v2.0 works well with release-2.0 of ckanext-spatial and ckanext-harvest but not with stable release and also with CKAN v2.1. 

The error I encountered previously was probably caused by installing CKAN v2.0 on Ubuntu 12.10. 

I'm happy with my evaluation on v2.0 for the time being.

Cheers
Richard Goh

Hi Richard,

This is strange, I just tested the package on a brand new Ubuntu 12.04
instance and work as expected.
Did you definitely used a new Ubuntu 12.04 64bit instance?
It sounds like Python was not properly installed, did you get any
unexpected log messages during the install?
