+This error usually comes from an invalid PySqlite installation:[[BR]]
+The Python interpreter is not able to import the sqlite module.

+File ".../python2.3/site-packages/trac/db.py", line 321, in init_db
+    cnx = sqlite.connect(path, timeout=int(params.get('timeout', 10000)))

+ * Check that the sqlite Python module can be load from a Python interpreter
+{{{
+python
+>>> import sqlite
+}}}
+ * Check that the Python intepreter that is run from the web server can find this module.[[BR]] 
+  The default path for this module is `<python_lib_dir>/site-packages`. If you've installed the module in another directory, make sure the `sys.path` variable is set up with this directory (more on this in TracCgi, TracModPython, TracFastCgi).
+
+A common mistake is to install PySqlite for one Python interpreter, and run the server with another Python interpreter: both interpreters do not use the same paths to search for modules.
