$30 to whoever helps me!

[gopunk]

i've been trying to set up Trac on dreamhost for 2 days now and i'm getting really frustrated. i've put the details of what i've done, and what goes wrong (at the top) up at:

http://wiki.dreamhost.com/index.php/Trac

if anybody wants to give it a shot, i can give you a shell account... if you can get Trac set up and tell me what i was doing wrong, i'll paypal you $30.

You must have missed a step in the initial configuration.

/home/username/lib/libsvn_swig_py-1.so.0

Unless your web directory really is called "username", then you forgot to change the config to use the actual paths.

Does this help?

i've seen those a few too many times the first one didn't seem to make a difference... wasn't sure if it should be '-lswigpy' or '-L/home/username/lib -lswigpy' but neither one worked in any case. for the second one, this is shared hosting, so i don't have enough permission to update the dynamic loader... but i've set LD_LIBRARY_PATH, so i think that should be enough?

Maybe your host would be willing to do that part for you?

 

[AgaBoogaBoo]

I'd be willing to bet SagaLore is right, you may not have the permissions to do that. Contact your host about having that done.

 

[gopunk]

hmmm, so what exactly does that do? i don't think my host would be willing to make a change that puts my own lib directory into ld.so.conf for all users... is there a way to make my own and use that instead? i have enough permission to run 'ldconfig -n /home/username/lib' but that didn't do anything...

What did you set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to?

Try linking the library without using LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Looks like it is not always reliable.

/home/username/lib

this is kind of over my head... how about i give you a shell account, and if you can get trac set up (and tell me what i was doing wrong), i'll give you $30?
