CKAN version
2.11.4
Describe the bug
An error appears in the browser console like this.
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 405 (METHOD NOT ALLOWED) /_tracking:1
Steps to reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
CKAN version: 2.11.4
Nginx version: 1.24.0
uWSGI version: 2.0.24
Python version: 3.11.7
Flask version: 3.0.3
Having following extensions installed:
- googleanalytics
- activity
- stats
- image_view
- text_view
- datatables_view
- webpage_view
- pdf_view
- geo_view
- officedocs_view
- datapusher
- datastore
- resource_proxy
- geojson_view
- shp_view
- bodik_theme
- tracking
- feedback
ckan.plugins = googleanalytics activity stats image_view text_view datatables_view webpage_view pdf_view geo_view officedocs_view datapusher datastore resource_proxy geojson_view shp_view bodik_theme tracking feedback
Expected behavior
Without causing a 405 error, the tracking works correctly.
Strangely, although Flask reports an error, there is no issue with the tracking count or its operation.

Temporary workaround
ckanext/tracking/plugin.py
class TrackingPlugin(p.SingletonPlugin):
p.implements(p.IClick)
p.implements(p.IConfigurer)
p.implements(p.IMiddleware, inherit=True)
p.implements(p.IPackageController, inherit=True)
p.implements(p.ITemplateHelpers)
p.implements(p.IBlueprint)
def get_blueprint(self):
from ckanext.tracking.views import tracking_bp
return tracking_bp
Create a new file ckanext/tracking/views.py
from flask import Blueprint
tracking_bp = Blueprint('tracking',__name__)
def tracking_endpoint():
return '', 200
tracking_bp.add_url_rule(
'/_tracking',
'tracking',
tracking_endpoint,
methods=['POST']
)
By adding the above, you can prevent the 405 error from appearing.
