[GeoNode-users] Problem with GeoFence permissions

Tue Mar 6 04:11:35 PST 2018

Hi Paolo,

There are 2 print statements in the except block. The first prints the
error and the second is the one that complains about the variable
'perm_spec' referenced before assignment.

If I comment out just the second print statement I the following message
printed to the screen, one for each layer registered in GeoServer

('Unexpected error:', <type 'exceptions.AttributeError'>)

I tried to run the commands in a python interpreter to debug this. But I
could not get the environment set. When I import the geonode.layers.models
in the interpreter, it complains about django_settings_module.

Cheers
Daniel
