= Trac On Solaris =

The easiest way to get Trac installed on Solaris, is to use the [http://www.blastwave.org/ Blastwave]'s
handy installer [http://www.blastwave.org/pkg_get.pkg pkg-get], where you just need to run
{{{
# pkg-get -i trac
}}}
to get Trac and all dependencies installed. Once the installation has completed trac-admin and tracd are 
available in /opt/csw/bin.

If you want to build it from scratch yourself,
Chris Miles has successfully build Trac [milestone:0.9.1] on Solaris.
He wrote a nice [http://systemsadmin.info/solaris/articles/building-trac-on-solaris explanation] of what he did.


I'll add one caveat though: I noticed he configured SQLite 3.2.7
with 
{{{
./configure --prefix=/opt/sqlite --disable-tcl CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib"
}}}

It should have been:
{{{
./configure --prefix=/opt/sqlite --enable-threadsafe --disable-tcl CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib"
}}}

See PySqlite for more details.


Similarly, problems on Tru64 were reported when ClearSilver was not built
thread-safe (see [/trac/ticket/1764#change_15 #1764]).
