I'm using CKAN as my open data portal. It's written in Python using Pylons framework. I just want to add a new page similar to about page to display the terms and conditions to the users. About page comes built in.
So I installed ckanext-pages using pip command. What I did was below
1. # Activate your CKAN virtual environment
. /usr/lib/ckan/default/bin/activate
2. # Install the pages extension.
pip install -e 'git+https://github.com/ckan/ckanext-pages.git#egg=ckanext-pages'
But now I end up with below error which is given when a requested plugin cannot be found.
ckan.plugins.core.PluginNotFoundException: pages
Plugin resides on below path
/usr/lib/ckan/default/src
Please let me know how to fix this?
With your virtualenv activated, run python setup.py develop in the ckanext-pages folder. This will register the plugin so CKAN can find it.
had similar issue. Double-check which paster you are using by command:
which paster
it must show you paster from your current virtualenv, which was /usr/lib/ckan/default in your case
if you are trying #amercader answer, and getting error13 permission denied, with your venv activated:
which python, this will get the path to python in your venv, grap that
run sudo the_path_you_just_grapped setup.py develop
then run the database initialization as in here

I am studying Django for the first time and everything was going well until the last day. Today when I tried opening my Django project, the terminal returns an error saying :-
Unable to create process using
'C:\Users\User1\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\python.exe manage.py runserver'
Thinking that it might be an issue with the virtual env, I tried checking my Python Interpreter to make sure I am currently in my venv.
Fortunately, I am currently using my venv but Pycharm indicates me to Install Python Packaging Tools.
I tried the link to install it but it notifies a Non Zero Exit Code(101) and Invalid Python SDK error.
Googling for the error asked me to check the path in Environment Variables where two are present -
C:\Users\User1\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\
C:\Users\User1\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\Scripts\
Recently I had added MingW Compiler to the path and that was it. I've never touched the path of Python.
I would like to mention that there are no errors in creating a new virtual envirnoment nor activating it. But things get worse when I try to pip install django. CMD tells that unable to create process.
Please help! I am actually stuck with my project.
Happy to say that I have fixed the issue.
Steps followed include :
Uninstalled Python,Deleted Path,Restarted my pc
Downloaded and Installed Python 3.10.2 from the official site.
Upgraded pip
Installed virtualenv using pip install virtualenv
Tested it creating env using - py -m venv "environment name"
pip install django works + started a project and the setup was successful.
First, try to run any python file (not in your project).
If it works, then the problem is with your django project or the env (try to create a new env and move your files to it).
At last, I think you should reinstall python; this will fix the problem I guess.
I'm using Ubuntu 15.04 with Python 2.7, pip 1.5.6 and virtualenv 1.11.6.
I will create a Django project inside /var/www/html/project_name (and work in that directory) for use it with Apache2.
I created a virtual environment named venv inside the project_name folder for syncing purposes.
With the virtual environment activated, I just cant't run pip install django because I get 'Permission denied' message. So I try the command sudo pip install django, but that will install Django globally.
So, running which pip, I get /var/www/html/project_name/venv/bin/pip.
But running sudo which pip, I get /usr/bin/pip.
Does someone get any idea about how it is possible to install Django (or any other package) inside the virtual environment?
PS: I know it's possible to run sudo venv/bin/pip install django, but it doesn't seem very useful.
Your trouble is presumably that you don't have write access to this /var/www/html/project_name directory. Your choices are:
Change the permissions, recursively, so that you do have permissions to write to that directory.
Run the following commands:
.
$ sudo su
# . venv/bin/activate
# pip install
Just to add what everyone's been saying and I sort of skimmed over: NEVER EVER put sensitive things (that includes your django project) under the document root. You can store it under something like /var/www/scripts or something, but don't put it under the document root.
Another way of deploying is using something like gunicorn as the "main" webserver and then just having whatever world visible webserver (like apache) reverse proxy to gunicorn. I've done this with nginx and it's fairly easy to setup, the only down side is then you have to setup something extra in your system's init scripts to start up gunicorn.
I have been working on Django project from few weeks and everytime I run the server, or make migrations or migrate all the packages are seperated from system directory to virtualenvironment.
I execute the below command to kickstart virtualenvironment
$source venv/bin/activate
What does 'source' signify in the above command ?
Long story short, it sets your path environment variables so it knows to check for installed packages in your virtual environment directory, so you don't have to do things like install them in a directory which you don't have (sudo) access.
i.e. you can do pip install without sudo and still have your python know where to find that package.
For more details on the source command itself, see this link
I'm trying to build a simple API server using Flask that will validate and store international phone numbers using this phonenumbers.py. I previously installed Flask and several Flask extensions in a virtualenv, and started building my app. So far so good. But after downloading and installing phone numbers.py using its own installer, I found that python running inside virtualenv could no longer find my app script! Looking at the directory, it's sitting right there, but python does not recognize it any more. The only other wrinkle I can think of is that after doing the install, I used an external text editor (outside the venv) to edit my app script and re-save it.
What have I done wrong?
I compared my environment variables inside and outside virtualenv. They are the same except for the following 3 additions:
VIRTUAL_ENV=/Users/tokrum/callcenter/venv
PATH=/Users/tokrum/callcenter/venv/bin # (was added to the beginning of my $PATH, but the rest of pre-existing PATH is as before….)
PS1=(venv)\h:\W \u\$
My app is called callcenter-v0-1.py. It lives in a directory called /callcenter/, along with the phone numbers-7.0.1 and venv folders at the same level of my directory structure.
Thanks for any light you can shed on this.
Install Flask_script in your virtual env using
$pip install Flask-Script
Make sure that you activated the virtualenv before you installed Flask and your other dependencies -
$ virtualenv env
$ source env/bin/activate
$ pip install flask
Then when you're done working, make sure to deactivate the environment -
$ deactivate
Finally, when you want to start working again, navigate to your project directory and reactivate the environment -
$ source env/bin/activate
At this point, I would just remove the virtualenv and start over.
Hope that helps!
I am starting on a project for classified ad listing site and found a template to get me started.
The installation instruction on git are not clear to me.
I created virtual env and installed dependencies using pip but I can't finish the installation process: manage.py runserver could not be executed and showed "could not find module sorl.thumbnail".
I think there is some error due to folder structure but cannot figure out what. Any ideas?
This is my folder structure.
It seems that the dependency sorl.thumbnail is not (successfully) installed.
Try running pip install sorl-thumbnail==11.05.2. That should install the module (in the version required by django-classifieds according to the requirements.txt). Check the output for any errors.
Also, make sure that you are using the right environment.
My only guess is that you either forgot to install sorl.thumbnail or that it is in a separate environment than django-classifieds. To add it manually, download the zip from the specified URL, extract the zip, and, in a command prompt/terminal in the directory you extracted the zip into, and run python setup.py build and python setup.py install.
