Where is the Trac Wiki beginner's doc? My Trac Wiki is on my own server and the documentation link is on the right of the screen just above the main menu near the top of the page. Look for "Help/Guide" beneath the search box. If you click that link it takes you to The Trac User and Administration Guide. You should see a Table of Contents on the right. I mention all this because, being a wiki on your own server, you can alter the content to make it more intuitive for yourself and/or your users. I encourage you to do that and when you are happy with it offer it back to the community. As it happens you have a golden opportunity to improve the Help/Guide by writing a specific beginner's guide - because you are currently looking at it with the fresh eyes of a newcomer to Trac. That only happens once for everyone. Something I found useful making my own documentation in the wiki was the link at the bottom of each page to download the page as plain text.

As you see by Matthew's answer, its right in front of you, if you take your time to look and read. I don't like this answer, as it makes me feel less like a genius. See, I go looking for stuff in Trac, and with combinations of google, looking at the DB and grepping through the source, I find what I'm looking for, make my tweaks, do my fixes, and impress everyone with how clever I am. Now, you come along and tell me that Trac really is this intuitive, and that I'm not that clever, it's just so well-designed, thought out, and documented that one of my more clever cats could install it on Ubuntu/Postgres/Apache/WSGI/SSL/selfsigned certs. This is really damaging to my ego and sense of self, Steffen. As a product of the "you are a beautiful and unique snowflake" American public school system, I demand that you state that Trac is impossible, non-intutive, opaque and ill-documented, thus cementing the validation of my brilliance and resourcefulness.

There is more, i.e. deploying some static content for use by the web-server. Please do yourself a favor and read the details in the wiki documentation [1].

[Trac] Confused about installing Trac with easy_install
After installing Trac with easy_install, I can't find fcgi_frontend.py for setting up FastCGI with lighttpd. I have a fresh installation of Python 2.6 and setuptools 1.4.1 on OS X 10.8 (installed using macports). Then I install Trac using the following command: $ sudo easy_install-2.6 Trac==1.0 After that, there's a Python egg at the following path: /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Trac-1.0-py2.6.egg The egg contains a file called "fcgi_frontend.py" but of course I can't use it without extracting it. Am I supposed to do that manually or am I doing something wrong? Regards Michael -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Users" group.
