Hello, I'm hoping someone can help me get Trac running under Apache
+mod_python on a Red Hat machine.
Background:
I want to put two repositories under Trac. I did a test installation
under Ubuntu. I apt-got the packages I needed. I followed various
instructions I found on the web. Everything went very smoothly. I first
served the repositories with tracd. Then I configured Apache and got
everything going there. Beautiful. Here's the relevant bit of Apache
configuration:
<Location /trac>
SetHandler mod_python
PythonHandler trac.web.modpython_frontend
PythonOption TracEnvParentDir /var/trac
PythonOption TracUriRoot /trac
</Location>
Alias /trac/ "/usr/share/trac/htdocs/"
<Directory "/usr/share/trac/htdocs/">
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
Problem:
Now I tried to set it up on the Red Hat machine. After various attempts
to install everything as rpms, I gave up and installed everything from
source. Eventually, I got so I could serve the two repositories with
tracd, but I always get error messages with Apache. Here is the relevant
bit of configuration:
Alias /trac/ "/usr/share/trac/htdocs/"
<Directory "/usr/share/trac/htdocs/">
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
SetEnv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/lib:/usr/local/lib
<Location /svn>
SetHandler mod_python
PythonHandler trac.web.modpython_frontend
SetEnv PYTHON_EGG_CACHE /var/www/trac-common/egg-cache
PythonOption TracEnvParentDir /var/www/trac
PythonOption TracUriRoot /svn
</Location>
I set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to put /usr/local/lib -- the preferred destination
for all the libraries created by the various tarballs I compiled -- on
the library path. Note that I also set PYTHON_EGG_CACHE. I also created
this directory and gave the apache user full permission to change it. I
did this in response to the error messages I was getting. The following
is a representative sequence:

mkdir(name, mode)
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/root/.python-eggs'
I've edited out repeated an irrelevant information.
So, can anyone tell me what is going on? Incidentally, I
made /root/.python-eggs visible to and editable by apache but nothing
changed.
