error: could not create 'TracHTTPAuth.egg-info': Access is denied

[lynda]

I installed bitNami Trac Stack in my Program files/BitNamiTrac. I'd
like to install some plugins. For example: httpauthplugin. I download
the httpauthplugin zip file to my E driver, and unzipped it to
trac_source\plugins\http_auth\ then I run this command to try to build
egg file, then install it:

C:\Program Files\BitNamiTrac\python\Scripts>
python E:\trac_source\plugins\http_auth\setup.py bdist_egg
then result is:
running bdist_egg
running egg_info
creating TracHTTPAuth.egg-info
error: could not create 'TracHTTPAuth.egg-info': Access is denied
How can I resolve it?
Thank you for your help
Best Regards
Lynda

Sounds like permission issues. I know that all of the trac hacks I try
to install start off with read-access disabled for everyone, but I'm
not too sure how this works on Windows.

Try putting this in your home directory (or your Desktop), and run the
python commands there. If you still get Access Denied, right click on
some of the files within the http_auth folder go to properties and
check that the 'Read' permission is on.

Good Luck!

Thank you! yes, it is permission problem. I went to enable read-access ability. In windows I can select the diretory or file, then uncheck the read mark.

Hi,

This happening on Windows Vista or later, right?

The best option is to open the windows console (cmd) with
administrator permissions. For that, you just need to right click on
the cmd icon and select 'Run as administrator'. This way you don't
need to change the permissions.
