[ckan-discuss] Delete packages with api - 403 error

Thank you, your post helped me.

I replaced the action 'package_delete' with 'package_update' and changed with it the state of the package to 'deleted'. I guess it has the same effect like the package_delete api but I get no error and the package is deleted.

Thank you very much!

John
