Basically I m not using htpasswd to store passwords. As I am hosting multiple repo I am using accountmanagers's session store. It does not use any htpasswd file as per my knowledge. That session-store stores all the passwords/logins in its owl trac site. I found a workaround to get my job done.
1) I add a user having TRAC_ADMIN privilidges by my script 2) That user is already available in one htpasswd file (whose path I have commented in /etc/apache2/httpd.conf as I am using webview+accountmanager). 3) Uncomment that line in httpd.conf of apache. 4) I restart apache. login through http and add one more TRAC_ADMIN user. 5) I delete the old user. 6) Comment back that same line in httpd.conf. 7) Restart apache and so I have one superuser working according to my wishes. My be next time I will post my script which does the initial thing. I know that it a lil bit of quacky solution but its doing my job. The whole thig is coming due to sessionStore of AccountManager plugin. regards - Alind Sharma ________________________________ From: Sergio Charpinel Jr. <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, 26 August, 2009 5:12:00 PM Subject: [Trac] Re: trac_admin and account-manager plugin You want to add user password?
