'''Usage Notes:'''
This is an index page for Trac [CookBook/About recipes] belonging to the '''Installation''' topic.

Readers are encouraged to:
 - add references to Trac recipes they know about
 - provide feedback on the effectiveness of recipes listed here
 - write their own recipe, either as a sub-page of CookBook/Installation or elsewhere on the net
 - improve existing recipes (this is obviously easier when those recipes are in this [TracWiki wiki])
}}}

== On Linux ==

Various recipes for specific platform have been written, in this wiki or elsewhere. However, they're often not updated regularly, so they're "stuck" to the given version of Trac that was current at the time the article was written..

For this reason, be sure to have a good grasp of the //official// installation documentation, i.e. the TracGuide and in particular the TracInstall and the TracUpgrade pages.

The TracGuide is always referring to the stable version of Trac (1.0 as of this writing), and there are copies of the guide for previous versions ([[0.11]], [[0.12]]).
{{{#!comment
No link to [[0.12]] on purpose, the 0.12/ pages still contain the draft pages from the 0.12dev, not yet the frozen copy of the current default TracGuide.
}}}
That being said, you can find several recipes going more in depth on a specific setting, like:
 - PostgresqlRecipe
 - TracNginxRecipe
 - TracInstallPlatforms, which is an index of platform specific installation guides
 - TracBuildout, to install and automate Trac deployment with [http://www.buildout.org Buildout]
 - [wiki:CookBook/easyTrac easyTrac], installs a complete Trac environment using Nginx, uWSGI and Supervisor.
 - [https://github.com/leocornus/leocornus.buildout.cfgrepo/tree/master/sample/uwsgi Build, Deploy, Init and Run Trac Projcts through uWSGI on Supervisord in Minutes]

The instructions are therefore easy to follow and the user will be guided through the installation of requirements, the creation of an environment, the addition of the TH:AccountManagerPlugin and running tracd.exe.
