A Bash script to (partially) automate CKAN installation
Don't just run the script!! It is intended as a record of an installation of CKAN 2.5 on Ubuntu Server 16.04. Copy and paste every line while following the tutorial.
Several minor (but important) changes had to be introduced to the tutorial for this Ubuntu distro, namely:
The config file is /etc/default/jetty8 instead of /etc/default/jetty
systemd script added to start CKAN as a service. This is intended to allow the python virtualenv to be loaded on service startup.
CKAN prints its output to the journal. To monitor, use the following command:
sudo journalctl -f
