[ECODP-dev] test machine to release 00.09.03 with CKAN security patch (ODP-300 & ODP-291 support)

Mon Oct 21 13:50:36 UTC 2013

Hi John,

thanks for investigating this issue.

* Can you provide a detailed updated on what you have changed?
  Also "breaks some redirects" ... that part requires some more explanation.

* About the nginx: this is the configuration that has been provided to us.
So we where not aware that this happened.
  Can your provide the detailed rules that are to be changed?

thanks,

Bert
