TraceBrowser quickly displays file contents before disappearing

[Joe-Paul Swinski]

I installed the latest version of trac 1.2.2 using easy_install and I was able to get everything up and running without any issues.  I am using a git repository and I am able to browse the repository directories, commits, and use the difference tool.

What I am not able to do is display the contents of a normal text file (this includes c, cpp, h, txt, and any other text file).  When I click on a file in the TracBrowser, the contents of the file are briefly displayed (in the normal line numbered, non-highlighted view) and then it disappears and only meta information is displayed: file mode, last commit, file size, etc.

I am using the default trac.ini file with the exception that I added entries for the git repository.  I have also played with the [mimeviewer] properties with no effect.  For instance, I changed mime_map to include text/plain:c and I also changed mime_map_patterns to include test files like text/plain:Makefile and it still behaves the same way.

Any clues or pointers?

Thanks for your help

What is your Git version?

That's very odd.

Any associated errors in the log?

Are you running TracStandalone, or using a different web server?

Hi, thank you for the response and the help!

The git version is 2.7.4.  

I am using the stand alone server (tracd), and nothing stands out to me in the log file.

Here is the full log output (with some IPs and paths retracted) associated with just the request to display the file contents.

The log shows that you have enabled [git] cached_repository. Did you run resync on the repository after adding?

https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracRepositoryAdmin#/resync

Please also share the [git] and [repositories] sections of your trac.ini.

Hi Ryan,

Looking through the trac.log I found something - I had a plugin in the plugin directory called ReadmeRendererPlugin-0.2-py2.7.egg and even though it was not being enabled in the ini file, it was still being loaded.  I removed the egg file from the directory and everything started working right away.

I had been working on this for a while, and the pointer to enable the log and look through it was the tip I needed.  Thank you!

JP

Good find! Plugins are auto-enabled from the Environment plugins directory:

https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracPlugins#Plugindiscovery

That plugin had a few problems, but the 0.3 version should work:
