[Trac] Tray Tool (notification area) like FogBugz

2008-06-17 Thread Lieven Cardoen
Hi, 

 

I've seen that FogBugz has a sort of application to post bugs very easy.
In the Tray (or notification area, don't know how it is called) you have
a icon from fogbugz. If you click on it, it easily takes a screenshot
and posts a bug...

 

Is there something like that for Trac?

 

For developers there are lots of plugins for Eclipse (like Mylyn) or
Visual Studio, but for a customer or manager I haven't found anything...

 

 

Thx

Thanks Graham,

I've readed more carefully the documentation, I've switched to daemon
mode and now seems to be ok.

[Trac] Re: File upload via a web interface

2008-06-17 Thread Emmanuel Blot

 Is there any web-based client for uploading [commiting] files to SVN
 and TRAC ?!

You can use the auto-versioning facility of SVN to upload a file with
a webdav-compliant client. Windows Explorer is supposed to implement
the webdav protocol (that's what they call the web folders) but
AFAICT it is not reliable with many environment:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.4/svn.webdav.autoversioning.html

Trac does not alter SVN repositories, which means that Trac does not
support such an upload feature, among other SVN modifying operations.

 It's not a big deal for developers but for managers to upload a simple
 file it's a headache.

Yeah, maybe a 
manager-who-does-not-understand-what-a-source-control-management-tool-does
should not commit to SVN at all, to avoid polluting the repository
with tons of MS-Word binary files ;-)))

Cheers,
Manu

[Trac] Re: Stuck with Apache authentication (Apache, mod_python, trac 0.11rc2)

2008-06-17 Thread Charlie

If you are using Apache authentication, do you have 'require valid-
user' or are you allowing anonymous users?  If the latter (which you
won't have require valid-user for the URL for trac), then you should
add a new URL path (.../trac/login) which does require a valid user.
This causes apache to do the auth and put the authenticate user info
in the right place.

 basically I had enabled the mod_dav_svn module.so, but I didn't enable

[Trac] Re: Tray Tool (notification area) like FogBugz

2008-06-17 Thread stevecel

Some months ago I started building some (Windows) client tools for our
hosted Trac solution (CodeResort), but progress has been slow lately.
It should work with a standard Trac installation too (assuming you
have the http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/XmlRpcPlugin installed.)

Here are some screenshots:

So far I have spent most of my time on the Wiki editor, and I'm in the

the least work, but where the really interesting things can be done
(from a client tool perspective).

[Trac] constructing sql queries in links and elsewhere

is it possible to link or embed sql queries without having to add them 
in the report view first? i'm asking because those queries allow much 
more customization than the trac query language - such as formatting the 
date differently, coloring, etc.

Hi all,

thank you for your posts.
Here the relevant snippet of the apache config. It's part of a vhost-
entry.
-8
Location /
SetHandler mod_python
PythonInterpreter main_interpreter
PythonHandler trac.web.modpython_frontend
PythonOption TracEnv /opt/trac/
PythonOption TracUriRoot /
PythonDebug on
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
/Location
LocationMatch /login
AuthType Basic
AuthName Trac
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/passwd
Require valid-user
/LocationMatch
-8

I tried several different hints of the docu, but nothing helped.
I do get a Status 500 message in the apache logs for the URI /login,
but not a single line
of information in the logs what happend or not. Somthing is going
wrong with the authentication
informations that should be transferred from apache to trac. But I
have not a single entry point
to investigate the whole thing. How can I test, if the authentication
stuff does work with my version
of mod_python?

Best regards
Andreas Mock

 The whole point of Apache/mod_python is that processes persist and a
 new one isn't created for each request as is the case with CGI.

 It is though generally a good idea with mod_python/Trac to force
 Apache to recycle processes every so often. See the
 MaxRequestsPerChild directive in Apache and read the Trac
 documentation which I am sure you would probably mention using this
 directive. Set it to 1000 and see how it goes.
Thanks, I'll give that a try. I think the problem was exacerbated by  
robots hitting the new machines all at once. I'll try the

[Trac] Oracle backend

Does Trac support using oracle as a backend database instead of
SQLite, PostgreSQL, or MySQL.   If so is a specific version when it

No, the only well supported DBs are SQLite and Postgres. We include MySQL
mostly because people seem to insist on it, despite it being fundamentally
broken. The nice folks at Ingress contributed a backend plugin, but I'm not
sure where it ended up. The backend system is modular, so if someone wants
to write it, an Oracle plugin is probably possible. Mostly you just need to
do some API cleanups on the underlying library to make it match the others.
Our SQL is pretty standard, so I doubt that will be much of a problem.

[Trac] error log, python version mismatch

2008-06-17 Thread yoheeb

Hi all,

was browsing my logs on my shiny new trac setup, under
windows...sigh(I know)

anyway, I noticed this repeating in the apache logs:
[Tue Jun 17 15:21:59 2008] [error] python_init: Python version
mismatch, expected '2.5', found '2.5.2'.
[Tue Jun 17 15:21:59 2008] [error] python_init: Python executable
found 'E:\\Engineering\\bin\\Apache2.2\\bin\\httpd.exe'.
[Tue Jun 17 15:21:59 2008] [error] python_init: Python path being used
'C:blah blah'

I did a search about something similar and came up with it likely
being a mismatch between the swig bindings, and the version of
subversion I am using.  the only solutions I came across were to
uninstall and re-install everything, which is not an option for me
now.  So, if there are any insights on what to look for, please let me
know, and how to tell.

That said, it only seems to be on startup, and doesn't seem to impact
the functions of subversion, trac, or apache.

So, while I am a bit concerned, I am not losing sleep over it.  Thanks
in advance for any pointers.

Now, I am making a leap of assumption here, since i have not looked at
the code yet, but IF trac uses the python dbapi to access the various
db systems, wouldn't it be a matter of pointing it to use an oracle
version of it?  which I believe already exists.  Of course there are
about 3 too many asses in those umptions so, for what it is worth.

DB-API 2 is unfortunately a bit lax in some specifications. We make all the
DB libraries look like they use the %s paramstyle, and make sure they accept
and return Unicode strings. There are also a few auxiliary functions the DB
connector handles that aren't part of the database API itself, mostly schema
generation and casting syntax.

[Trac] Re: Tray Tool (notification area) like FogBugz

2008-06-17 Thread stevecel

VimTrac? Have to check it out. Perhaps I can get some inspiration :-)

The upload thingy was the first one I wrote (but there are parts of it
in both the QuickTicket and the Wiki Editor. You can actually
drag'n'drop files into the wiki editor and it will upload all of them.

Does it recover? Good question, probably not. Haven't stressed any of
these tools to the point where they fail network-wise. Real big files
will probably have a problem, as the server will probably time-out (as
it should).

On the wish-list are some custom outputs to SnagIt, to make it easy
to upload screenshots to wiki pages and tickets. The file uploader
already accepts the filename it should upload on the command line, so
integrating it with other tools should be easy.

If you want to download and install, you need to register for a
CodeResort account (free and easy). You will automatically get access
to the API project where these tools are downloadable (comes with an
installer). Requires .NET 2.0 runtime though. If you find any bugs,
register a ticket on the API project on CodeResort. :-) (Same goes for
feature-requests) I kind of need a kick in my lower back region to
get started again :-)

At some time, I'll probably put the stuff on trac-hacks, where stuff
like this belong.

[Trac] Re: Tray Tool (notification area) like FogBugz

2008-06-17 Thread Chris Mulligan

VimTrac is pretty nifty, but my impression is that it was far from
ready for prime time. There were no installation instructions,
confusing directions and FAQ, a bit of a pain to work with. On top of
that the one time I managed to save a change to a wiki page it wiped
out all the content. Opening any ticket caused a traceback.

I'm sure there's some really impressive work that's gone into it, but
I'd be very wary of using it in a production environment.

  Thanks to the Trac docs, and this groups archive..I managed to get the

snip

Just a couple follow on tips and things I have learnt(tm) along the
way

- In my case, I am authenticating (via SSPI) groups for subversion
access.  and against the domain for trac.  the Groups are domain users
are as well.  this works great.  I found it easier to administer the
groups local to the machine serving trac/subversion.  Therefore,  you
just need to specify the local machine as the DOMAIN for the
subverison Location section in the httpd.conf
- use the  SSPIOmitDomain and the SSPIUsernameCase flags, at least for
subversion control.  SSPIOmitDomain is nice for trac as well, unless
you need to allow multi-domain users, then you're on your own, you're
probably best to put them into a local group (like mentioned earlier)
in that case, and you can still use these flags, but then, you're on
your own here, I am none of the following: Apache, Windows Server,
Trac, Subversion knowledgable, I just have enough information to be
dangerous, almost no skill.
-The Trac docs/groups are great resources for setting this up, the
TracOnWindows/Advanced is a great starting place, they also have a lot
of embedded hints to what you end up doing for the subversion
repository as well.
- the bindings you use for subversion, python, trac and apache are
VERY version specific, try to decided/know what versions you will be
using ahead of time.
- Using SSPI authentication is limiting for some of the plugins, you
can always just use an apache authz file if this is an issue.
- if you have the choice, consider NOT going windows.
- SOME things end up needing to be on the Apache htdocs path for
access.  while you can dork around with permissions etc., if it's
still not working, try that, for example, that's where my graphviz
cached ended up. Required, probably not, but was easy that way.
- If it doesn't work after restarting apache, try stopping apache,
then starting it.

Ok, that's all I can think of.  Good luck.

Some more information about how you have your server setup, and what
clients you're using, would be helpful.

I'm going to assume you have a Microsoft AD Domain, and Apache with
Kerberos (mod_auth_kerb). If it working with basic auth you'll need to
enable KrbMethodNegotiate authentication (in addition to
KrbMethodK5Password), which may be the default. Then on the browser
side you'll need to do some minor tweaks:

Firefox/Mozilla
 * Enter into the address bar about:config
 * Use the filter to help find network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris -
this is the list of uris that the browser will do SPNEGO with. That
is, the places it's prepared to try Kerberos authentication with. So
basically it prevents the browser from sending tickets to any old
website where they might eventually be decrypted.
 * Set it to the string 'https://yourdomain.com' (no trailing /'s!).
 * It should just work now

IE
* Tools-internet options
* Security tab
* Highlight 'local intranet'
* Click 'sites' button, then 'advanced'
* Add sites that you want, and check the box at the bottom
('require https'). Add https://*.yourdomain.com to the list.
* Back to internet options' security tab, click on 'custom level'
for the intranet.
* Scroll down to the very bottom; user authentication-logon should
be 'automatic logon only in intranet zone'
* Back to internet options, go to the advanced tab
* Scroll down to security, ensure that 'enable integrated windows
authentication' is checked (if you had to do that, you'll need to
restart for some odd reason).

Note that I've never personally done it for IE, but it should work
more or less like that.

 Does Trac support using oracle as a backend database instead of

 No, the only well supported DBs are SQLite and Postgres. We include MySQL
 mostly because people seem to insist on it, despite it being fundamentally
 broken. The nice folks at Ingress contributed a backend plugin, but I'm not
 sure where it ended up. The backend system is modular, so if someone wants

 do some API cleanups on the underlying library to make it match the others.
 Our SQL is pretty standard, so I doubt that will be much of a problem.

Well I did attempt to do this but failed.

First, and most annoying feature in Oracle is dealing with '' (empty 
string) as NULL.

So: select * from foobar where a = '';
evaluates to: select * from foobar where a = NULL;  which in turn is 
something that doesn't evaluate correctly.

Second thing is lack of user friendly text field. VARCHAR2 can hold up 
to 4000 _bytes_ (not characters). There exists CLOB but that uses LOB 
pointers that are not nice to use, and for example automatic type 
conversions don't always apply.

Ticket related to this spesific issue:
http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/1874

As stated, SQLAlchemy (or any really abstract DB or-mapper/layer) 
_might_ help, but until it's implemented in Trac, there is not much of a 
proof of that.
