The script does this every time I try and install trac using the script installers

Now it has issues connecting to the SVN and using the trac-admin gives this error:

-sh-3.2$ ./trac-admin /home/eluin/public_html/track/ repository resync "Eluin" Traceback (most recent call last): File "./trac-admin", line 5, in ? from pkg_resources import load_entry_point File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.4.egg/pkg_resources.py", line 2603, in ? working_set.require(requires) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.4.egg/pkg_resources.py", line 666, in require needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements)) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.4.egg/pkg_resources.py", line 565, in resolve raise DistributionNotFound(req) # XXX put more info here pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: Trac==0.12.1

Which Linux distribution and version are you running there? Both python and any python modules should be installed from your distro's packages, and should all be the same version ..

Its CentOS 5.5, python is version 2.4 (thats CentOS's fault its not latest, I have python 2.6 installed as python26).

The install script installer tries intalling 'setuptools' from yum but that fails, then tries 'python-setuptools' which works, but then python doesnt detect it (I've tried typing 'import setuptools' into a python prompt, it seems to fail).

Installing the setuptools module directly for 2.4 makes the install script run and python detects setuptools, but when loading Trac it gives an error about connecting to the SVN, and when using the trac-admin python script it gives that last error, which I can't make heads nor tails of.

Finally solved the trac-admin issue by going into the lib/python directory within Trac and doing:

easy_install Trac

and

easy_install Genshi

Now trac-admin runs without error, but I'm still getting an SVN connection error, it says:

Warning: Can't synchronize with repository "(default)" (Couldn't open Subversion repository /home/eluin/svn/hexbot: SubversionException: ("Can't open file '/home/eluin/svn/hexbot/db/current': Permission denied", 13)). Look in the Trac log for more information.

On every page loaded in Trac

Looked up the file, it is owned by apache:apache

Ok, I tried changing the 'current' file to be apache:eluin, and then it could use the file, but then it complained about there being no changeset 1, so I've made a new repository and edited the .ini to point to it and there are no errors (yet)

Submitted by graham_howden1 on Thu, 01/06/2011 - 06:20

OK, put all files into the repository and it went back to the permission denied error, changed it to apahce:eluin and it said an error about the file '1' in the rev directory being wrong, so I changed that, and also '1' in revprops had to be changed. Is there a way to make the new revisions automatically be apache:eluin and not apache:apache?

I wonder if the cause here is that the python command is version 2.6, but this isn't detecting the modules Virtualmin installs via YUM as they are for version 2.4?

Submitted by graham_howden1 on Thu, 01/06/2011 - 16:06

The python command is 2.4, the python26 is version 2.6, there have been multiple errors e.t.c. after this stage, Ive got it all up and running after a minor SVN issue and many other things, just authentication to fix now, I'll close this as it might just be an issue with my system/centOS
