Trac 0.11.1 Released

[Jonas Borgström]

Trac 0.11.1
===========

We're happy to announce the Trac 0.11.1 release.

You will find this release at the usual place:
http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracDownload

Trac 0.11.1 contains a number of bug fixes and minor enhancements.
The following list contains only a few highlights:

* Improved DB connection handling (new connection pool)
* Better MySQL backend unicode support. "utf8" and "utf8_bin" is the
recommended database charset and collation settings.
* Fixes intermittent "constraint violation" and "invalid form token"
error messages.
* Fixes roadmap layout glitch in Firefox 3.
* Safer default umask value for tracd (can be set using --umask option)
* Better default PYTHON_EGG_CACHE value.

You can find a more detailed release note at:

Acknowledgements
================

Many thanks to the growing number of people who have, and continue to,
support the project. Also our thanks to all people providing feedback
and bug reports that helps us make Trac better, easier to use and more
effective.
Without your invaluable help, Trac would not evolve. Thank you all.

Finally, we offer hope that Trac will prove itself useful to like-
minded programmers around the world, and that this release will prove an
improvement over the last version.

Please let us know. :-)

Hmmm... my trac install wont work after upgrade... removed the old
install... used easy_install (as always has been done) to get the
0.11.1 (tried both 0.11.1 from stable and tags)... install seemed to
work fine, but after restart, trac just throws a whole bunch of
errors... tried a trac upgrade but it too throws errors...

was able to delete the 0.11.1 version and resinstall 0.11 just fine
and its working....

Am I missing a step? Errors from visiting trac page after 0.11.1
upgrade shown below:

What MySQLdb version are you using? At least version 1.2.2 should accept
a 'charset' keyword argument:

>>> import MySQLdb
>>> MySQLdb.__version__
'1.2.2'
>>> MySQLdb.connect(db='test', user='root', charset='utf8')
<_mysql.connection open to 'localhost' at 879a10>

offhand not sure... will check when home from work tonight and have
access to my system... did the requirements go up for the version with
0.11.1 as it worked with 0.11?

Mr Papa

[Mr Papa]

Mr Papa

[Mr Papa]

As per normal, the upgrade worked fine. The only problem is with
TracNav (takes 5 argument 6 given) but thats a simple problem to fix
(well I've not sorted it yet, so I could be eating my own words)

Already fixed in 4.0pre7 one month ago, see
