ConfigParser.NoSectionError: No section: 'app:main'

When I am running the following command at the root of my CKAN installation on a development machine:

paster celeryd

I am getting the following error.

File "/usr/lib/ckan/default/src/ckan/ckan/lib/celery_app.py", line 29, in <module>
    sqlalchemy_url = config.get('app:main', 'sqlalchemy.url')
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/ConfigParser.py", line 607, in get
    raise NoSectionError(section)
ConfigParser.NoSectionError: No section: 'app:main'

I checked my development.ini file and it has an app:main section. Not sure how to resolve this error.

Solution

  • I did solve this error. It was not finding the development.ini file. I created a link in the ckan source dir pointing to development.ini file and it resolved this error.
