Error creating a new region on fresh installed development sites

[pm5]

I started a fresh development sites with Vagrant following the steps in fabfile.py. Everything seems fine until I logged in and started creating the first new region. No matter what I tried to draw on the map, after submitting the form the web site always returns "There was a problem with the map area you drew. Please re-draw it and try again.".

Just want to see if anyone runs into the same problem?

@pm5 Do you experience the same error on https://localwiki.org? Also, you may want to try a different browser as well.

@philipn I'm not experiencing the same error on https://localwiki.org. On my development site with Chromium version 47.0.2491.0 (64-bit), I get the following error page along with stack trace. Could it be some steps I've missed in setting up the environment?

Can you see if varnish is running on the VM? I'd do vagrant ssh then `ps auxww|grep varnish.

[pm5]

I think varnish is running. Doing ps auxww|grep varnish on the VM I got

I just noticed that regions have area restrictions, so I tried a much smaller region geometry, and the error message changed to the following:

So I guess the problem is rather why localwiki is not giving me this error message?

I'll go on and try to figure out why Celery is not properly configured...

[pm5]

Finally got this fixed. Apparently celery-haystack doesn't freeze its version of django-celery-transactions and we need to do it ourselves.
