MILESTONE_CREATE and MILESTONE_ADMIN permission view issue

[Dani-Blr]

Hi All,

I have only MILESTONE_MODIFY and MILESTONE_VIEW in my trac user
permission list.
But I need to configure basic permissions MILESTONE_CREATE and
probably MILESTONE_ADMIN to a user.
My issue here is I don't see these permissions in my trac admin user
permissions list.

Can any one please help me on this?

Thanks,
Dani.

Yo.

I'll use "ta" to mean /python/scripts/trac-admin. Cd to your trac env directory (so that pwd returns the directory of your trac environment).
ta . permission list
should give you the permissions of all users in the system including an handy list at the bottom "Available actions:"
ta . permission list | grep MILESTONE_CREATE
and
ta . permission list | grep MILESTONE_ADMIN
should return something. If they don't then your problem is far beyond me. If they do, run
ta . permission add <user> <permission>
where user is the user for whom you want to add the permission and permission is either MILESTONE_CREATE or MILESTONE_ADMIN.

Good luck!

No luck Aaron.
Please find the following. No result came after the commands.

[root@srvr01 cm]# trac-admin . permission list | grep MILESTONE_CREATE
[root@srvr01 cm]# trac-admin . permission list | grep MILESTONE_ADMIN
[root@srvr01 cm]#

The trac was moved from another server where I could still see these
permissions.
The new server, these permissions are missing.
Any other thoughts on this ?
I am new to trac and helped to move this to new server.
Any help from anyone would greatly appreciated.

The move to the new server happened around 6 months back and I didn't
get any questions after the move about the server.
In fact all records are existing in Trac - but the permission are
missing which should be a part of standard configuration.

Waiting for responses.

Thanks,
Dani.

There is another route. You can create the permissions yourself by ignoring the fact that they're not in that list:

ta . permission add user MILESTONE_ADMIN

because I think that TRAC checks for them whether they're there or not.

I am a little curious what the output to

ta . permission list

is (just the part about available actions, perhaps

ta . permission list | awk '/Available/,$2=""'

? )
Good providence!

hmm ...that didn't work either.

[root@srvr01 cm]# trac-admin . permission add <user> MILESTONE_ADMIN
TracError: MILESTONE_ADMIN is not a valid action.

[root@srvr01 cm]# trac-admin . permission list | awk '/Available/,
$2=""'
Available
BROWSER_VIEW, CONFIG_VIEW, EMAIL_VIEW, FILE_VIEW,
LOG_VIEW, PERMISSION_GRANT, PERMISSION_REVOKE,
REPORT_ADMIN, REPORT_DELETE, REPORT_MODIFY,
REPORT_SQL_VIEW, SEARCH_VIEW, TICKET_ADMIN, TICKET_APPEND,
TICKET_CHGPROP, TICKET_EDIT_CC, TICKET_EDIT_COMMENT,
TICKET_EDIT_DESCRIPTION, TICKET_VIEW, TIMELINE_VIEW,
TRAC_ADMIN, WIKI_ADMIN, WIKI_CREATE, WIKI_DELETE,
WIKI_MODIFY, WIKI_VIEW


Please help me...

Thanks,
Dani,

Are you able to navigate to a Milestone? I get the same error if the milestone module is not enabled. Here it is shown as enabled:
