Restart Nginx

sudo service nginx restart

Given your configuration file has the settings for your database, recreate the database tables:

cd /usr/lib/ckan/default/src/ckan
ckan -c /etc/ckan/default/ckan.ini db init

You should now be able to start CKAN in the development web server and have it start up without any problems:

ckan -c /etc/ckan/default/ckan.ini run
