= Trac Installation Guide = The Trac web-based project management tool is implemented as a server side cgi-program. Trac is written in the Python programming language and store it's data in a sqlite database. == Dependencies == The following dependencies have to be installed: * [http://www.python.org/ Python], version >= 2.1. * [http://subversion.tigris.org/ subversion], version >= 0.29. * [http://pysqlite.sf.net/ pysqlite], version >= 0.4.3 * [http://clearsilver.net/ ClearSilver], version >= 0.9.3 * A CGI-capable webserver (only tested with Apache) == Installing Trac == $ python ./setup.py build $ python ./setup.py install == Initializing the database == Trac stores wiki pages, tickes and other information in a sqlite database. Sqlite databases ar just ordinary files on the harddrive, no database server is required. A new trac database can be created like this: $ trac_admin /path/to/mydatabase.db initdb NOTE: The database file have to be located in a directory where the webserver user has write permission to both the file and the directory. This creates a new database using default values. Some settings still need to be modified to get your Trac installation up and running. The following command will display the trac configuration: $ trac_admin /path/to/mydatabase.db config list Most settings should be okey, but you have to verify that these settings are correct: * general.repository_dir. This should be the path to the svn repository. * general.templates_dir. This should be the path to the trac template directory. A config value is modified like this: $ trac_admin /path/to/mydatabase.db config set == Configuring Apache == FIXME
