I keep getting an IdentityManagementNotEnabledException, but it is enabled
Mike Kent
I did an 'svn update' for TG followed by a 'tg-admin update' for my
project this morning, and made sure I was switched over to the new
python-based config files. My project's 'config.py' has Identity
turned on. When I start up the server and attempt to display my
project main page, I get an IdentityManagementNotEnabledException. But
Identity is in fact turned on in config.py. Here's the relevant part
of config.py:
# IDENTITY
# General configuration of the TurboGears Identity management
module
# --------
# Switch to turn on or off the Identity management module
"identity.on" : True,
# [REQUIRED] URL to which CherryPy will internally redirect
# when an access control check fails. If Identity
# management is turned on, a value for this option must
# be specified.
"identity.failure_url" : "/login",
# The IdentityProvider to use -- defaults to the
# SqlObjectIdentityProvider which pulls User, Group, and
# Permission data out of your model database.
"identity.provider" : "sqlobject",
# The names of the fields on the login form containing
# the visitor's user ID and password. In addition, the
# submit button is specified simply so its existence may
# be stripped out prior to passing the form data to the target
# controller.
"identity.form.user_name" : "user_name",
"identity.form.password" : "password",
"identity.form.submit" : "login",
# What sources should the identity provider consider when
# determining the identity associated with a request?
# Comma separated list of identity sources.
# Valid sources: form, visit, http_auth
"identity.source" : "form,http_auth,visit",
Can anyone point out my silly mistake?

It probably isn't a silly mistake: I've been corresponding with Rune
Hansen all morning about problems like this. But I haven't been able to
track it down.
Which revision are you running? I committed a change in r506 that checks
to see whether Visit tracking is turned on, because Identity relies on it.
But that didn't solve the problem for Rune.
Unfortunately, I don't have the option of working on it during the day
(you know, that whole work thing).
Would you send me your stack trace?

I did not have visit tracking turned on in config.py. I turned it on,
restarted the server, and still get the same exception. Here's my full
traceback:

I hope this helps you find the problem. Yeah, I know about that whole
work thing.
