When the CKAN container comes up do you see the line: "Set up ckan.datapusher.api_token in the CKAN config file" in the logs ie:

plus do you see the ckan.datapusher.api_token line in the ckan.ini file in the running CKAN container?

[ken-muturi]

i see this Set up ckan.datapusher.api_token in the CKAN config file on the console; however the api token in the container is empty

any feedback on this; even cloning a new repo gives me the same message

[ken-muturi]

i am still struggling with this issue even after about 10-15 trials; I even rebuilt my server to ensure i have a clean slate; Is there a way to generate the API token manually?

[kowh-ai]

I think you might want to start debugging where the ckan.datapusher.api_token gets created and subsequently changed. Take a look here to understand how to override the setup files for the local image/container

[ken-muturi]

thanks, let me look into it

[kowh-ai]

Are you using the master branch?

[ken-muturi]

yes i am using master branch

Hi everyone,

I'm facing the same problem using the Master branch of ckan-docker.

This happens when I build another image including extensions and try to use the new image.

But if I install the extension manually using the original image and just restart the container everything works fine.

i managed to have this install only with the default settings. I think the only thing i changed was the db credentials and site url. any other changes would cause this issue.
