trac.ini problem

I probably got a recent automatic update trac and just got the following message:

Internal Server Error

TracError: DuplicateOptionError: While reading from '/home/me/trac/conf/trac.ini' [line 49]: option 'log_level' in section 'logging' already exists

I had two lines in trac.ini:

log_level = DEBUG

log_level = CRITICAL

The trac.ini file had a modification date of 2020 on it, so I didn't change it yet Trac failed to run. I removed the CRITICAL line and it ran fine.

Given that I didn't change the .ini file and both lines have been there for a while, does that indicate a potential bug in a new version of Trac?

Hi,

My guess is you added that line a while ago but never restarted the trac process so you might ever got the problem till now.

Cheers

This machine is regularly restarted and I log into trac, so it's not that. I don't have any scripts that could have run and modified the .ini file themselves.

Duplicate options are not allowed in Trac 1.5.3 and later.
