SVN Browse Error

[mrichmond@…]

When I try and browse the SVN source code repository for a project using Trac I get the following error message below.

Installed Sotware Versions:

• Trac - 0.10.2
• Python - 2.4
• Swig - 1.3.25
• SVN - 1.4

Note: I am able to successfully run "import svn.repos" from the python command line, so I think python-svn is properly setup. I am also running trac using mod_python, but I get the same error message when I use the standalone version.

Trac Error Message:
