I've installed Trac .10.5, configured the trac.htpasswd file, and am able to log in and view/create tickets.
The problem is that I am currently unable to administer ticket components such as the versions that appear in the drop list on New Ticket.
From command line, I issued the following command:
trac-admin /foo/bar/trac/ permission add myusername TRAC_ADMIN
User "myusername" is listed in /foo/bar/trac/conf/trac.htpasswd, and I am able to successfully log in with that account.
Is there another step I'm missing in order to get access to a system configuration area? (for instance, setting up version numbers)
EDIT:
I discovered that version .10.* and below do not have web admin capabilities installed by default. http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/WebAdmin
I downloaded the plugin source:
svn export http://svn.edgewall.com/repos/trac/plugins/0.10/webadmin/
Then ran setup.py, which generated a dist/TracWebAdmin-0.1.2dev-py2.6.egg file.
I then issued
easy_install TracWebAdmin-0.1.2dev-py2.6.egg.
Here's the output:

My trac/conf/trac.ini file has this section:

I restarted the httpd server (trac uses Apache), and still have no Admin button.
Help greatly appreciated.
You're a bit too hastily seeking advice. Quoting my recent replies to trac-users mailing-list here:
This is most probably a permission issue and will continue with any more
recent Trac environment. Do something like
trac-admin permission add TRAC_ADMIN
to grant full permission to an admin user account, that is usable for
administration tasks. As known elsewhere, you should create a less
privileged account for your regular work to just use Trac.
But please note: Because you've got Python2.6, go for Trac-1.0, don't dare to use anything before this current stable version for a new project, really. Trac-0.10 has been abandoned long ago and 0.11 is unchanged since 2010 too.
You'll have no luck on almost any issue you may encounter, and you miss
a truck-load of great features that have been introduced. Trac 0.11 had
major API changes in many respects, 0.12 went for full i18n support, if
you care for that, and 1.0 is just on the edge, supporting the new db
access API as well as retaining compatibility code for not-yet-updated
plugins (quite a lot to be honest).
I had a similar issue with 0.11.x (minus the plug-in installation), and it turned out that the user account I was logging into via the shell was not the user account that owned the installation. This meant that the changes I was making did not have the right permissions - it is a requirement that all trac-admin changes are made by the installation owner.
Let's say the user that installed Trac was "jim", and I'd logged in as "bob" to use trac-admin in interactive mode. Reapplying a pre-existing permission to a will cause Python to throw an error and kick you off trac-admin. You have to remove the permission first, then reapply it as the other shell user.
The solution was to:
log back in as "bob" via the shell (e.g. "ssh -l bob trac.url.com")
trac-admin path/to/my/project
permission remove TRAC_ADMIN
exit (trac-admin)
exit (ssh)
log in as "jim" via the shell (e.g. "ssh -l jim trac.url.com")
trac-admin path/to/my/project
permission add TRAC_ADMIN
exit (trac-admin)
exit (ssh)
Now when you log into Trac as via a web browser, hopefully you should see the Admin button top right.

Please advice or guide ways that I can check and solve this problem
I am using SIFLess to install Sitecore 9.1 Update 1 on my local machine in order to get started with development with my team. However, the install is not creating certain databases on my system that are needed to get up and running, most notably the Reporting database. This of course causes problems when I deploy code from my team's repo to my local instance as it references these databases. I see that the SIFLess-generated PowerShell script has calls to a 'RemoveDatabase' function that references these databases in the uninstall method, but no code to create them in the first place during an install. The missing databases are:
MarketingAutomation
Messaging
Processing.Pools
ProcessingEngineStorage
ProcessingEngineTasks
ReferenceData
Reporting
Xdb.Collection.Shard0 and 1
Xdb.Collection.ShardMapManager
These are what I have gleaned from the uninstall logic in the PowerShell script generated by SIFLess. Again, no logic exists to create them in the first place in the install section. My team members all have these databases on their systems. What am I doing wrong? I am a Sitecore novice here.
Please make sure you are using the good package. You have to download the XP package, not XM. (Just to be sure here). Afterwards, the Database installation are done with DacPac found within the Sitecore Web Deploy Package ( *.scwdp).
Please, also make sure that within this scdwp you can see (can double click or extract) the database missing :
MarketingAutomation
Messaging
Processing.Pools
ProcessingEngineStorage
ProcessingEngineTasks
ReferenceData
And do the same with the xConnect SCWDP, and make sure you see the databse missing there :
Xdb.Collection.Shard0
Xdb.Collection.Shard1
Reporting
Sometimes, if you have tried the installation script more than once, you can have some undesired behavior. You are possibly trying to go forward with the wrong certificates. Also, some services were actually created on previous installation attempts.
Here is what I think should help you get through.
Clean your workspace
Remove your databases that are related to the installation if exists.
Remove your certificates (using certlm -> you can type in your windows search bar "cert" and then you should be able to pick "Manage computer Certificate".
On the left sidebar, Click on Personal > Certificates.
Remove your installation-related certificates
nameOfYourInstallation.identityserver
nameOfYourInstallation.sc
nameOfYourInstallation.xconnect
Open your Windows Services Manager (you can type in your windows search bar "services" and select the services app)
You should be able to see those services :
Sitecore Marketing Automation Engine - nameOfYourInstallation(might be one of your previous install)
Sitecore Processing Engine - nameOfYourInstallation
Sitecore XConnect Search Indexer - nameOfYourInstallation.
Write those down. Keep your service app open.
Using NSSM (probably installed already from some of your previous installed, if not, can use chocolatey ( https://chocolatey.org/packages/NSSM ) remove those services.
in a cmd : nssm remove serviceName
Note that you can remove them by right clicking etc. I just prefer the nssm way.
When its done, restart your computer (some services and in a state of removal, that needs a restart to be completely removed)
Try to install again.
Hope it helps, cheers !
We have an application which shows up as an Excel ribbon.
We have installed the application in our test environment through administrator login. We are trying to make a per machine installation.(Please note that in production environment, the installation will be through system account).
When we login as user to the same PC, we don't see the excel addin in the Excel ribbons. We don't see the addins anywhere in the list of addins as well.
We have tried using Active setup,Userstat,setting the values of properties as ALLUSERS=1, RegisterForAllUsers= True, InstallScope= perMachine, InstallAllUsers = Everyone, RunActionsAsInvoker = True . Also the privileges has been changed from user to admin in all the cutom actions and in manifest file as well. All these changes where made as we understood that the application used to package is Addin express and so the msi creation with privileges as admin is possible.
Unfortunately none of these changes seems to help us.
What we would need is an msi which we can install on per machine basis.
From the situation mentioned in the question, we had tried a lot of options and finally following approach works for us:-
Create a package which would place a powershell shortcut in the startup folder.
The shortcut would in turn call or execute a powershell script.
The powershell script would
1. check if the registry key for that particular add-in is available in HKCU.
We had our registry key as "HKCU\Software\Manufacturer Name\Product Name" which in turn had a string value "Installed".
If the registry key is not available for the user, then install the package with tranform.
3.If the registry is already available, then script doesn't make any change.
The package is installed as an Admin and once the user logs in, then automatically the cmd file is executed and the add-in is installed.
Since this was the first version of the product, we didn't have to handle version compatibility.
I have a Jenkins user that I want to give rights to run the remote CLI towards the Jenkins instance. The first command is to fetch the config.xml:
java -jar jenkins-cli.jar -s http://jenkins:8080/hudson get-job thejob
However when he invokes the command, it fails with:
Caught: java.lang.RuntimeException: \
hudson.security.AccessDeniedException2: \
USER is missing the Job/ExtendedRead permission \
at hudson.security.ACL.checkPermission(ACL.java:54)
I have given the rights to execute scripts, read/create/configure jobs and more in our matrix-based security grid. There is another user who has EXACTLY the same permissions in the grid, but for this other user, everything works fine.
I don't have any of the plugins 'Extended Read permission' or 'Read-only configurations' installed.
I cannot see why it fails for this new user. Suggestions anyone?
Differences in the 2 users config.xml file:
<com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.UserCredentialsProvider_-UserCredentialsProperty plugin="credentials#1.4">
<credentials/>
vs:
<com.cloudbees.plugins.credentials.UserCredentialsProvider_-UserCredentialsProperty plugin="credentials#1.8.3">
<domainCredentialsMap class="hudson.util.CopyOnWriteMap$Hash"/>
And a final one:
<hudson.security.HudsonPrivateSecurityRealm_-Details>
<passwordHash>some values...</passwordHash>
</hudson.security.HudsonPrivateSecurityRealm_-Details>
I don't know if you are facing the same problem I had, but take a look here:
Jenkins CLI: using Anonymous permissions instead of the user defined ones
It looks like you have upgraded the credentials plugin but somehow the first user didn't get its record updated.
If you can I would suggest trying to update to the latest (1.9.1 for me). You could also edit the user record manually and force the real plugin version number in there (then restart Jenkins) and see if it processes this user more accurately.
Per the subject... I made a Setup.exe with Inno Setup which is supposed to
install to "{pf}{#MyAppName}". It does so on Win XP and also Win 7 if I'm
logged in with admin rights, but if I try on Win 7 as a limited user, I get
this error message:
"Setup was unable to create the directory C:\Program Files\AppName".
What to do? I don't want (or need) the user to install as an admin.
If you want to install to %ProgramFiles%, you do need to install as an admin. Regular users don't have write access to %ProgramFiles% directory.
If installing to %ProgramFiles% is not a requirement, just let the user pick a destination directory, or install to {localappdata} instead of {pf}. {localappdata} is guaranteed to be writable for it's owner. It expands to something like C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Local.
You can also install to {pf} if running as admin and to {localappdata} if running as restricted user; use IsAdminLoggedOn to decide.
If installing to %ProgramFiles% is a must, you have no choice but to run as admin.
For this to work correctly, make sure that your .iss file either does not define PrivilegesRequired option, or it's set to admin. Then, when an unprivileged user runs the installer, a UAC prompt will appear asking for credentials with enough access rights (unless UAC is disabled, in which case the only way to install is Run As).
