    1111For the quick install, make sure you have [http://python.org Python-2.5], [http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall#installing-easy-install easy_install] and SQlite-3.3.4 installed (or above).

    2523   * See instructions in ["TracOnWindows/Python2.5"]
    2624 * [http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools setuptools], version >= 0.6
    27  * [http://genshi.edgewall.org/wiki/Download Genshi], version >= 0.3.6
     25 * [http://genshi.edgewall.org/wiki/Download Genshi], version >= 0.4.1
    2826 * You also need a database system and the corresponding python drivers for it.
    2927   The database can be either SQLite, PostgreSQL or ''MySQL (experimental)''.

     44'''Warning''': PostgreSQL 8.3 uses a strict type checking mechanism. To use Trac with the 8.3 Version of PostgreSQL, you will need [http://trac.edgewall.org/changeset/6512 trac-0.11] or later.

    4646=== For MySQL ===
    4747
    48 '''Warning''': MySQL support is currently ''still'' experimental. That means it works for some people, but several issues remain, in particular regarding the use of unicode and the key length in the repository cache. See MySqlDb for more detailed informations.

    6666 * A CGI-capable web server (see TracCgi), or
    6767 * a [http://www.fastcgi.com/ FastCGI]-capable web server (see TracFastCgi), or
     68 * [http://httpd.apache.org/ Apache] with [http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/ mod_wsgi] (see [wiki:TracModWSGI])
     69    * This should work with Apache 1.3, 2.0 or 2.2 and promises to deliver more performance than using mod_python. A little less mature than mod_python.
    6870 * [http://httpd.apache.org/ Apache] with [http://www.modpython.org/ mod_python 3.1.3+] (see TracModPython)
    6971    * When installing mod_python the development versions of Python and Apache are required (actually the libraries and header files)
    70  * [http://httpd.apache.org/ Apache] with [http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/ mod_wsgi] (see [wiki:TracModWSGI])
    71     * While mod_wsgi is very new and somewhat experimental, this should work with Apache 1.3, 2.0 or 2.2 and promises to deliver more performance than using mod_python.
    7272
    7373For those stuck with Apache 1.3, it is also possible to get Trac working with [http://www.modpython.org/ mod_python 2.7] (see [wiki:TracModPython2.7 TracModPython2.7]). This guide hasn't been updated since 0.84, so it may or may not work.

    8787One way to install Trac is using `setuptools`.
    8888With setuptools you can install Trac from the subversion repository; for example,

    101 This will byte-compile the python source code and install it in the `site-packages` directory
    102 of your Python installation. The directories `cgi-bin`, `templates`, `htdocs`, `wiki-default` and `wiki-macros` are all copied to `$prefix/share/trac/`. `conf` and `plugins` stub directories are also created under `$prefix/share/trac/`.
    103 On Linux, the default value of `$prefix` is `/usr`, so the installation will be to `/usr/share/trac`, whereas the BSDs use `/usr/local`. Other Unix or Unix-like systems might use a similar prefix or something like `/opt`, please see your system's documentation for details.
     101This will byte-compile the python source code and install it as an .egg file or folder in the `site-packages` directory
     102of your Python installation. The .egg will also contain all other resources needed by standard Trac, such as htdocs and templates.

    105104The script will also install the [wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin] command-line tool, used to create and maintain [wiki:TracEnvironment project environments], as well as the [wiki:TracStandalone tracd] standalone server.

     124The above will place your `tracd` and `trac-admin` commands into `/usr/local/bin` and will install the Trac libraries and dependencies into `/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages`, which is Apple's preferred location for third-party Python application installations.

If you only plan on managing a single project with trac you can have the standalone server skip the environment list by starting it like this:

    151 Trac provides three options for connecting to a “real” web server: [wiki:TracCgi CGI], [wiki:TracFastCgi FastCGI] and [wiki:TracModPython mod_python]. For decent performance, it is recommended that you use either FastCGI or mod_python.

    152160
    153161If you're not afraid of running development code, you can also try running Trac on [wiki:TracModWSGI mod_wsgi]. This should deliver even better performance than mod_python, but the module is not considered stable just yet.
