assert have_pysqlite > 0 -- Assertion failed

[macapellades@…]

On Mac OS X 10.4.8 (MacBook) I installed the following packages from source:

• swig 1.3.29 + neon 0.25.5 + subversion 1.4.2
• apache 2.2.3
• trac-0.10.2
• mod-python-3.2.10
• clearsilver-0.9.14
• pysqlite-2.3.2
• sqlite-3.3.8

I am using the python that came installed with the system, python 2.3.5.

Tested mod-python and works fine. I installed and configured trac as indicated in the TracGuide. Created a first trac project and tested it with tracd on port 8000, and works wonderfully. Then stopped apache and reconfigured it for handling my trac locations. When I restart apache and test on the same trac project location as before I get the following errors (from apache log error file):

Sun Dec 03 20:55:05 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] PythonHandler trac.web.modpython_frontend: Traceback (most recent call last):

Maybe there is LD_LIBRARY_PATH issue. This happened with me.

Probably yes. In any case, this is an installation issue, so:

• you should first ask on the MaillingList or on the IrcChannel
• you're always welcome to improve the TracInstallPlatforms/ … page corresponding to your system, in particular to mention there any common pitfall (as this LD_LIBRARY_PATH issue seems to be).

(woops, I cut away a bit too much in the traceback, sorry; the missing relevant thing was assert have_pysqlite > 0, as mentioned in the summary)
