If you run trac-admin ... upgrade as your user then there is no way for your web server to be able to correctly access folders underneath it for write access. That's why chmod 777 worked for you, but as Matthew mentioned, that's a very bad idea.
Trac thinks there's something wrong with the directory structure when it has no write access, that's why it tells you to upgrade. However, all you need to do (after you ran the upgrade command) is own the directory structure for apache: chown -R apache /usr/local/trac/mysite Assuming the user under which your server runs is called apache. It might be httpd. In any case, once you recursively own that directory (after upgrading!) you will be fine. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Users" group.
