[Deploying Sakai] Available site types in 2.8 (or later, maybe earlier too)

[John Leasia]

Have you setup any course sites yet? As I recall, a fresh install 
creates a few project sites, but I don't think any course sites. So 
until you create one, you won't see any sites with that type in the 
sakai_site table.
