I don't know exactly what that means, by running as _www does it mean it has to been run by Apache? I have tried running it with Apache (Apache 2, installed by default on OS X 10.5), and I get the same error.

I tried following your tutorial as well, I set up the permissions with: sudo chown -R _www:_www . But I still get the same error: TracError: The user max requires read _and_ write permission to the database file /usr/local/tracroot/MyProject/db/trac.db and the directory it is located in. Does the database needs other type of permissions? I'm not well versed on permissions, so it might be worth mentioning that, my subversion repository is on the following route: /svnrep and I can HTTPS access it, even though it doesn't have _www permissions. I'm planning to migrate it to /usr/local/svnrep though, after reading your tutorial.

Am I missing something when setting up permissions.
