Custom project index page doesn't work

[demise]

I'm using lighttpd 1.4.11 and latest trac 0.10dev from repository. I cannot set a custom location for the projects index page. I have set

"bin-environment" ⇒ (

"TRAC_ENV_PARENT_DIR" ⇒ "/var/lib/trac/", "TRAC_ENV_INDEX_TEMPLATE" ⇒ "/var/lib/trac/index.cs"

)

For some reason the project page shows a colourful python error - the last error message says that index.cs does not exist. It has 777 rights and is owned by lighttpd. If I overwrite it with a random .cs file from /usr/share/trac/templates/ and restart the web server, it doesn't report an error anymore, but is still using /usr/share/trac/templates/index.cs. As a workaround I have customized directly /usr/share/trac/templates/index.cs, but it gets overwritten every time I upgrade trac. Is this functionality broken?

Sorry about the address. I thought only trac devs are allowed to post using nicks w/o @-chars. I did a checkout today (rev 3519) and the issue seems to be fixed now. Thank you very much.

I don't know if it's against your bug policy for me to close this bug so I leave it open.

A reporter can close the bug as worksforme (as long as some details are provided to justify the change of the ticket status - as you just did). Closing the ticket.
