VISUALSVN SERVER // Installing Trac with VisualSVN Server

Note Currently we do not technically support Trac plug-in for VisualSVN Server. Please note that Trac plugin for VisualSVN Server was never released officially and you can use it on your own risk. We do not plan to update the plug-in on a regular basis.

Download VisualSVN Server 2.1 or later.
Install it using default settings.
Create repository "MyProject" in VisualSVN Server Manager.
Create at least one user if you use Subversion authentication.
Download VisualSVN-Server-Trac-2.1.0.21642.zip (~12MB).
Unzip it to %ProgramFiles%\VisualSVN Server\
Create folder C:\Trac
Allow "Full Control" access to C:\Trac folder for built-in Network Service account (or other account that is used to run VisualSVN Server's service).
Execute command:
```
"%ProgramFiles%\VisualSVN Server\trac\trac-admin.bat" C:\Trac\MyProject initenv
```
Use default settings. Provide C:\Repositories\MyProject as repository path.

Add system variable

PYTHONHOME=%ProgramFiles%\VisualSVN Server\Trac\python

Add the following text to file C:\Program Files\VisualSVN Server\conf\httpd-custom.conf if you use Subversion authentication:

LoadModule python_module "trac/python/mod_python_so.pyd"
LoadModule authz_user_module bin/mod_authz_user.so
<Location /trac>
  SetHandler mod_python
  PythonInterpreter main_interpreter
  PythonHandler trac.web.modpython_frontend
  PythonOption TracEnvParentDir C:\Trac
  PythonOption TracUriRoot /trac

  AuthName "Trac"
  AuthType Basic
  AuthBasicProvider file
  AuthUserFile "C:/Repositories/htpasswd"

  Require valid-user
</Location>

or this text if you use Windows authentication:

LoadModule python_module "trac/python/mod_python_so.pyd"
LoadModule authz_user_module bin/mod_authz_user.so
<Location /trac>
  SetHandler mod_python
  PythonInterpreter main_interpreter
  PythonHandler trac.web.modpython_frontend
  PythonOption TracEnvParentDir C:\Trac
  PythonOption TracUriRoot /trac

  AuthName "Trac"
  AuthType VisualSVN

  Require valid-user
</Location>

Restart VisualSVN Server.
Open http://localhost/trac/ or https://localhost/trac/ (if you setup secure connections) in a browser and enter user name and password.
