I'd be interested to hear what other have to say, but I haven't any significant problems in the two MySQL sites that I've run with recent Trac 1.0.x releases. In most cases I think users will be okay if they run with the recommended storage engine, charset and collation. My understanding is that the options will just be expanded with #12363. The number of PostgreSQL issues (1) is comparable to the number of MySQL issues (2). The only major issue I've run into is #12390; it can be worked around and is probably rarely encountered. I would rather run PostgreSQL, but that's just a personal preference and matter of familiarity. - Ryan (1) https://trac.edgewall.org/query?status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&keywords=~postgres&group=status&order=priority (2) https://trac.edgewall.org/query?status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&keywords=~mysql&group=status&order=priority #12363: https://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/12363 #12390: https://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/12390 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Development" group.
