after installation, trac runs w/o probs under tracd but comes up with an error message on apache2:

additional info: i've got ver 0.11 installed prio to 0.12dev

[Christian Boos]

Please mention the mod_python version you're using. If not already using the latest stable (3.3.1), you should consider upgrading it (though I'm not entirely sure this works around the issue).

Alternatively, backout rev. [7413] and [7407] until the issue gets fixed:

$ cd trunk
$ svn merge -c-7413 http://svn.edgewall.org/repos/trac/trunk
$ svn merge -c-7407 http://svn.edgewall.org/repos/trac/trunk

my mod_python is 3.2.1 (current debian stable package), so i tried the alternative solution and it works! :) But: no localisation - only english

[Christian Boos]

Ok, fine, so I guess we need some compatibility code with 3.2.1 (very quickly looking at the modpython docs, this hints to an API change: ​MODPYTHON:144).

(and I guess this one is for jonas rather than cmlenz, changing owner)

Replying to cerano:

But: no localisation - only english

off topic, but see 0.12/TracInstall and look for Babel related information.

[Jonas Borgström]

Fixed in r7420. Unfortunately we can't use any compatibility code since the 3.2.1 implementation is buggy. The PYTHON_EGG_CACHE PythonOption requires mod_python 3.3 but everything else works as before.
