I've been running Trac in the office for a few months now and it's been a great solution. Everyone loves it. As most of my colleagues have never used issue tracking software before, its simplicity has been a real boon. The Git integration is AMAZING. I have it installed on a Windows 7 machine. This morning with some time to spare I went looking for a plugin to allow us to view Word documents attached by the QA team. At the moment we have to download them. I found docrenderplugin which looks like just what we need. It's only the second Trac plugin I've installed and it took me a while to get to grips with what was needed. I created an egg file, put it in the plugins directory and added a line to the attachments section in trac.ini. My problem came with running init-script as it's not a Windows script. After peering at it for a while I decided that I could achieve the same thing by running LibreOffice as a Windows Service. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to discover a way of doing this, even with the help of Google. Since it looks like LibreOffice can be run as a service on Unix I can't see why it wouldn't be possible on Windows, but I'm in new territory here and would love some help from anyone who's done this or who knows how to go about it. Maybe my approach is totally wrong and I should be going about it another way? I've been a developer for years (C++, Java, C#) but have no Python experience.
