CKAN Install: paster error

Question

Installing CKAN locally on OSX 10.9, based on http://docs.ckan.org/en/latest/maintaining/installing/install-from-source.html.

I\'ve created and activated the python virt

Answer 1

ImportError: No module named pylons.util looks like Python cannot find the Pylons package, one of the Python packages that CKAN depends on. Two possibilities come to mind:

1. Did you activate your CKAN virtualenv, before running the paster command? ~/ckan/default/bin/activate.

2. Have you installed the Python packages that CKAN depends on into your virtualenv? With the virtualenv activated run pip install -r ~/ckan/default/src/ckan/requirements.txt

If you activate your CKAN virtual environment and then run pip freeze | grep pylons, this should tell you whether pylons is installed in the virtualenv.

The Distribution already installed: at the top of your terminal output is strange.
