Hi,
 
I am still trying to get Trac up and running after hours at my job. My boss first asked me to use Windows but that turned into a nightmare so he agreed to let me use Suse Linux since one of our other offices is using Trac on that platform. They are using a older version so I can't just copy their installation.
 
I first made sure I had subversion 1.6.2 set up on the Linux server first. That was very straightforward. On the client side the users choose whatever tool they want for the client platform.
 
I am using python2.6 with no problems.  I installed the sqlite3 database. I am not sure the pysqlite drivers are installed because I cannot find them.
 
As it turns out Suse has  a package for Trac 0.11.4.  I gave that a try.  Just to test I can run the tracd and one of the test projects shows up but I cannot set up any users.
 
I downloaded the account manager plugin but I still do not seem to be able to configure any users. The reference file I found for Suse Trac says use rctrac to invoke the daemon??  We are using svnserve not apache.
 
I am just wondering if I should uninstall the Suse Trac and just install the Trac packages and their dependents manually.

Hello,

 

I have set up trac 0.10.5 with subversion.

For web access (I have set it up as a virtual host on our server), the login works as follows –

I login as user A

Logout

Next time I click login, it automatically logs me in as A ie no password. It does not allow me to log in as user B

 

We need to be able to login as different users when we open bugs in trac from our tools.

 

What is the setup for that?

 

Thanks!

Anu

Hi there,

How are you authenticating your users? I imagine you're using basic authentication?

If that's the case, then try closing and re-opening your browser before trying to log in as a different user. That usually clears the current session. Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any way to directly 'log out' of a basic authentication session; it's a very limited system.

Good luck,
~Paul Malmsten
