Tethys 2.0 (dev) issues

[Norm Jones]

I have installed tethys dev (2.0) on my MacBook using the Mac OS installer. Had a couple of hiccups, but it is working. I love the one step install procedure. This is going to be very nice for developers. 

I thought it might be nice to have a thread dedicated to issues that come up while testing tethys 2.0. Here are a couple of things:

In the old install process, there was a place where you had the opportunity to enter a name and password for the user account on Tethys Platform. I don't recall seeing that option this time. Now I have fired up Tethys portal using the "tms" command (thank your for the short commands) and I am trying to log on, but I don't know the default user name and password. I looked through the installation instructions and noted this link that I skipped:

http://docs.tethysplatform.org/en/dev/installation/web_admin_setup.html

It says to log in to the admin portal but it doesn't say how. I tried "admin" and "pass" and that worked, but we might want to add that to the instructions.

Also, I installed docker for Mac OSX and then got an error message when I tried:

$ tethys docker init

This is the error message:

  File "/Users/njones/tethys/miniconda/envs/tethys/lib/python2.7/json/decoder.py", line 367, in decode

    raise ValueError(errmsg("Extra data", s, end, len(s)))

ValueError: Extra data: line 2 column 1 - line 9 column 1 (char 71 - 568)

Scott and Nathan are aware and are working on it, but I thought I would throw it out there in case some of you run into the same thing.

That is a good point. We should explain how to login to the Tethys Portal more explicitly in the documentation. You can specify the username and password for the superuser with command line arguments to the install script: `--superuser` and `--superuser-pass`. The defaults (as you've discovered are `admin` and `pass`.
