The --no-migrations argument is not recognized by "manage.py test". This seems to be a pytest thing.

If you're British, I take back my comment about the lack of introspection. I still think you have internalized the American worldview and discourse. Do you really think it is credible to talk about moral exceptionalism and fail to mention the American variant?

laughable. American article accuses Russia of moral exceptionalism and completely fails to address America's own unique brand of moral exceptionalism, something that is very well documented and a recurrent topic in political and diplomatic discourse originating in the US (the shining city on a hill, etc). Not that it probably matters much to the author, but if you ever want to be taken seriousky outside your own borders, a little dosis of introspection would be a good start.

Excellent tutorial! You make it look so simple and logical that I decided to use AngularJS as my new framework for single-page apps.

The image with the taiwanese corn dogs was really inappropriate.

That's one of my favorite parts too. Does anyone know where the text comes from? I've tried googling for it but no luck.

Somos um povo que ainda não interiorizou que a riqueza se pode criar e não apenas transferir. A suspeita católica em relação ao lucro continua bem viva entre nós. Uns continuam a achar que todo o enriquecimento é roubo, outros ainda não se conformaram com ter de fazer algo tão deselegante como trabalhar para viver. Estamos presos à velha visão mercantilista da economia como jogo de soma nula, unidos apenas na desconfiança e no ressentimento.

Actually line 32 of the default.rb recipe already has group "admin". Turns out I just needed to add the "admin" group:
# sudo groupadd admin

Unfortunately the run_chef script got stuck at a later point after fixing this. I got the following error:

ERROR: service[openvpn] (/var/chef/cookbooks/openvpn/recipes/default.rb line 85) had an error:
/etc/init.d/openvpn start returned 1, expected 0

[ommited some hard to read errors, basically the same as follows but not as well formatted]

Installing capistrano didn't put anything in the path, had to execute cap directly from /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/cap

I also had to install these additional dependencies, otherwise cap would complain:

sudo apt-get install libopenssl-ruby ruby1.8-dev make
sudo gem install echoe activesupport

Even then I couldn't get the recipe to work in my Linode Ubuntu 8.10 slice. I get this error

INFO: Starting Chef Solo Run
ERROR: directory[/etc/openvpn/easy-rsa] (/var/chef/cookbooks/openvpn/recipes/default.rb line 29) had an error:

Seriously, this has got to be the stupidest post I've seen on TC - almost made me unsubscribe.
