[GeoNode-users] theming geonode fails with connection refused error

[Florian Hoedt]

Hi,
I´ve installed latest geonode on a Ubutu 14.04 LTS:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:geonode/testing

And want to theme my geonode and tried to follow these instructions:
http://docs.geonode.org/en/latest/tutorials/admin/customize_admin/setup_admin.html

But this command fails:
django-admin startproject my_geonode --template=https://github.com/geonode/geonode-project/archive/master.zip -epy,rst

>> CommandError: couldn't download URL https://github.com/geonode/geonode-project/archive/master.zip to master.zip: [Errno socket error] [Errno 111] Connection refused

Thought it could be a proxy related issue and tried:
sudo -E django-admin startproject my_geonode --template=https://github.com/geonode/geonode-project/archive/master.zip -epy,rst

with identical error message.

What is wrong?

Regards,
Florian Hoedt
