Are you sure that you have python 2.7 installed? I believe that starting with Ubuntu server 16.04.1, the default python version is set to 3.5, not 2.7. Trac still requires 2.7.x. Try running: python --version to see what version of python that you are using.
If you are using the 3.5 branch of python, you will very likely need to install python 2.7 for trac to work: sudo apt-get install python2.7 should work to start installing python 2.7. chris On Sun, Nov 12, 2017 at 9:41 AM, Torge Riedel <torgerie...@gmx.de> wrote: > Am 11.11.2017 um 11:44 schrieb Torge Riedel: > >> Hi, >> >> I've set up a new server Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS and try to migrate my >> existing (and running) trac 1.0.13 installation to 1.2.2, but this fails >> with >> >> TracError: Unsupported database type "mysql" >> >> Setting up a new environment with the same connection string gives me: >> >> Failed to create environment. >> Unsupported database type "mysql" >> Traceback (most recent call last): >> File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/trac/admin/console.py", line 500, >> in do_initenv >> options=options) >> File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/trac/core.py", line 136, in __call__ >> self.__init__(*args, **kwargs) >> File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/trac/env.py", line 300, in __init__ >> self.create(options) >> File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/trac/env.py", line 592, in create >> DatabaseManager(self).init_db() >> File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/trac/db/api.py", line 337, in >> init_db >> connector, args = self.get_connector() >> File "build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/trac/db/api.py", line 615, in >> get_connector >> scheme=scheme)) >> TracError: Unsupported database type "mysql" >> >> So I think it is an environment/installation issue.
