Overview

How to set up a new Trac project environment on Windows using a SQLite database.

Prerequisites

  • Python
    • The Windows installation of Python doesn't update the "path" environment variable. It's necessary to do that manually to include the path to the python executable.
    • Same is true for Trac. By default the trac libraries are installed in [PYTHON_INSTALL_DIR]\Lib\site-packages\. The trac-admin executable is located in c:\python27\scripts\ (where c:\phython27\ is the installation directory for Python).
  • Python setuptools
  • Genshi
  • And of course, Trac. Which for now requires Python 2.7 (even though Python 3.x exists).
    It looks like it's possible to run multiple python environments?
