templates skipped during installation

[theultramage+trac@…]

Since r4819 trac will not install nor run properly, since the installer doesn't add the relevant files&dirs to /share.

TemplateNotFound: Template "index.html" not found

Adding them there manually won't work due to some missing directory setup or something. Dumping the content of the previous /share/trac into the main directory does the trick (as a quick workaround).

Since r4819 the templates are not supposed to go in the /share folder. Like the plugins, Trac now stores the templates in the source tree and uses the setuptools APIs to resolve their location. Based on your information you should find "index.html" in "c:\unix\bin\python\lib\site-packages\Trac-0.11dev-py2.5.egg\trac\templates". How did you download and install Trac? When building Trac from an SVN checkout the revision number should be included in the version number of the egg (Trac-0.11dev-r4819-py2.5.egg). Also check that you've removed any old installations of Trac from the site-packages directory.

I use trac latest trunk, and install it from a svk checkout using "python setup.py install". I always delete all previous files. Python 2.5 is used btw.

I've inspected the egg file (and the extracted content), there is no /templates directory, and no html files in there at all. Could setuptools/windows/python be messing with it?

Which version of setuptools are you using?

[Matthew Good]

Replying to anonymous:

I use trac latest trunk, and install it from a svk checkout using "python setup.py install".

At least for now you'll need to check it out via regular SVN, not SVK. When installing from an SVN working copy setuptools can tell which files are under version control and makes sure they're included. Since SVK doesn't keep the .svn folders setuptools can't tell which files are versioned, so it only includes Python source files.

I'll update setup.py to be more explicit about which files need packaged, though you may want to install development versions from SVN anyways so that you can see the revision number in the Trac version.

The same issue also applies to the SpamFilter plugin (#4869).

[Matthew Good]

This has been fixed in r4979:4980 for Trac and r4981 for the SpamFilter.
