If we attempt to install this plugin, when we try to upgrade the database, we get this error:
[~]# trac-admin /net/web/lappd-trac/LAPPD upgrade TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'unique'
To fix, it depends on where the plugin was installed. For the system, delete it from /usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages. For the project, it will be in PROJECT_HOME/plugins. After deleting, restart the webserver.
I got some errors about latex style files missing. The ones in question were: type1ec.sty and preview.sty. I fixed this by downloading them from CTAN.org, unzipping the files, and running:
tex <filename.ins>
Then I moved the entire directory, in my case one for preview and one for type1ec to /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex. Then run texhash and things were good.
At some point, I also ran fmtutil-sys –missing, which may or may not have helped. I’m not sure.
How to authenticate against and openldap server, in Apache.
Since we’re sending credentials, we want everything to be over https, so everything here is in the /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf file. I’m calling the openldap system, liberty.example.com and the system running the webserver, wishbone.example.com. The url for the site is then https://wishbone.example.com.
Right after SSL Global Context, add this line:
LDAPTrustedGlobalCert CA_BASE64 /opt/certs/ldap-server.pem
(This file is the certificate for your openldap system. It’s self-signed and a CA as well.)
Make a self-signed certificate for wishbone that you’ll use for https. If you use the Makefile, both your certificate and key will be in the same file.
SSLCertificateFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/wishbone.pem SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/pki/tls/certs/wishbone.pem
At the end of the file, just before the </VirtualHost>, add the following:
LDAPTrustedClientCert CERT_BASE64 /opt/certs/ldap-server.pem LDAPTrustedMode SSL <Directory /var/www/html> Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> <Location /login> AuthType Basic Authname 'Account Info' AuthBasicProvider 'ldap' AuthLDAPURL 'ldaps://liberty.example.com:636/ou=people,dc=liberty,dc=example,dc=com?uid?one' AuthzLDAPAuthoritative off Require valid-user </Location>
I needed to install Trac on an RHEL5 system. This was a bit of a problem since it needed a version of python with threads and the version from RedHat does not have threads. We also have ldap set up for authentication and I wanted Trac to be able to use it.
Failed to find the necessary bits to build these modules: bsddb185 dl imageop sunaudiodev
If you get errors for other packages here, you should be able to install the development package from RedHat to fix those. For the packages listed above, edit setup.py and comment out the sections having to do with these.
make install
/usr/local/lib
Then run ldconfig
