TracStandalone (tracd) fails to allow login

[anonymous]

I setup a passwords file using htdigest and then run tracd passing the "--auth project,d:/pathtopasswords,trac", but when I login I am getting the following error:

Trac detected an internal error:

'NoneType' object has no attribute 'do_auth'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "tracd", line 232, in do_trac_req
    self.do_real_trac_req()
  File "tracd", line 242, in do_real_trac_req
    self.remote_user = self.env.auth.do_auth(self)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'do_auth'

It seems like it isn't finding/using the passwords file since this is the same error I get when I startup tracd without the passwords file.

The full tracd start command is:

python tracd -p 9090 --auth foundation,d:/Tools/TracData/passwords,trac d:/Tools/TracData/trac.db

The full htdigest command is:

htdigest -c d:/Tools/TracData/passwords trac myUserName

Are you sure you're using 0.8? If so, then why are you pointing tracd to a trac.db file instead of an environment directory?

Tracd will match the name of the project environment directory against the project name part of the --auth option, which would mean that your Trac environment should be called foundation. If it doesn't match, you'd get the above error.
