In this commit ​https://github.com/okfn/ckan/commit/1772a5c John Glover set map.explicit=True in ckan/config/routing.py.

The reason this was done was to avoid links collecting parameters. e.g. if you were on page /dataset/{id}/resource/{resource_id} then by default all the links on that page generated by url_for (Routes) would include the id and resource_id parameters as well. To avoid this, you had to go through all the links and add id=None and resource_id=None to the url_for parameters.

When map.explicit was changed to True, the value of the controller, action, id and any parameters were no longer automatically carried over into the generated links for the page. So previously links within the same controller didn't need to specify the controller (for example), but now they did. So when we did this we also had to fix up links that weren't explicit:

John made the config change on 5/11/2011 which was merged to master ​https://github.com/okfn/ckan/commit/5a01e67 21/11/2011. The related fixes mentioned were in within the same week. This all went into release 1.5.1. The requirement

If you set WSGIScriptAlias to mount CKAN at a URL other than / then you cannot logout without adjusting the OpenID logged_out_url to match in who.ini config. e.g.

[plugin:openid] ... logged_out_url = /sub/dir/user/logged_out

Note: all the other URLs in who.ini should not have the /sub/dir/ - it is just this one that doesn't take account of the mounting point.

The solution is to fix-up the repoze.who OpenID plugin to take account of the mounting point.

Mounting CKAN at a non-root URL was made to work properly here: #1659

Unfortunately OpenID doesn't play nicely and would require some work to get working.
