 [[TracGuideToc]]
 Trac is written in the Python programming language and needs a database, [http://sqlite.org/ SQLite], [http://www.postgresql.org/ PostgreSQL], or [http://mysql.com/ MySQL]. For HTML rendering, Trac uses the [http://genshi.edgewall.org Genshi] templating system.
 Since version 0.12, Trac can also be localized, and there is probably a translation available in your language. If you want to use the Trac interface in other languages, then make sure you have installed the optional package [#OtherPythonPackages Babel]. Pay attention to the extra steps for localization support in the [#InstallingTrac Installing Trac] section below. Lacking Babel, you will only get the default English version.

 Please refer to the documentation of these packages to find out how they are best installed. In addition, most of the [trac:TracInstallPlatforms platform-specific instructions] also describe the installation of the dependencies. Keep in mind however that the information there probably concern older versions of Trac than the one you're installing.

 == Installing Trac
 …
 The [TracAdmin trac-admin] command-line tool, used to create and maintain [TracEnvironment project environments], as well as the [TracStandalone tracd] standalone server are installed along with Trac. There are several methods for installing Trac.
 It is assumed throughout this guide that you have elevated permissions as the `root` user, or by prefixing commands with `sudo`. The umask `0022` should be used for a typical installation on a Unix-based platform.

 Trac provides various options for connecting to a "real" web server:
  - [TracFastCgi FastCGI]
  - [wiki:TracModWSGI mod_wsgi]
  - [TracModPython mod_python]
  - //[TracCgi CGI]: should not be used, as it degrades performance//
+ - [wiki:TracModWSGI Apache with mod_wsgi]
+ - [TracModPython Apache with mod_python]
+ - [TracCgi CGI] //(should not be used, as the performance is far from optimal)//
 Trac also supports [trac:TracOnWindowsIisAjp AJP] which may be your choice if you want to connect to IIS. Other deployment scenarios are possible: [trac:TracNginxRecipe nginx], [http://projects.unbit.it/uwsgi/wiki/Example#Traconapacheinasub-uri uwsgi], [trac:TracOnWindowsIisIsapi Isapi-wsgi] etc.
 …
 ==== Generating the Trac cgi-bin directory #cgi-bin
+In order for Trac to function properly with FastCGI you need to have a `trac.fcgi` file and for mod_wsgi a `trac.wsgi` file. These are Python scripts which load the appropriate Python code. They can be generated using the `deploy` option of [TracAdmin trac-admin].
+There is, however, a bit of a chicken-and-egg problem. The [TracAdmin trac-admin] command requires an existing environment to function, but complains if the deploy directory already exists. This is a problem, because environments are often stored in a subdirectory of the deploy. The solution is to do something like this:
+{{{#!sh
+$ mkdir -p /usr/share/trac/projects/my-project
+$ trac-admin /usr/share/trac/projects/my-project initenv
+$ trac-admin /usr/share/trac/projects/my-project deploy /tmp/deploy
+$ mv /tmp/deploy/* /usr/share/trac
+}}}
+Don't forget to check that the web server has the execution right on scripts in the `/usr/share/trac/cgi-bin` directory.
+Application scripts for CGI, FastCGI and mod-wsgi can be generated using the [TracAdmin trac-admin] `deploy` command:
+[[TracAdminHelp(deploy)]]
+Grant the web server execution right on scripts in the `cgi-bin` directory.
+For example, the following yields a typical directory structure:
+{{{#!sh
+$ mkdir -p /var/trac
+$ trac-admin /var/trac/<project> initenv
+$ trac-admin /var/trac/<project> deploy /var/www
+$ ls /var/www
+cgi-bin htdocs
+$ chmod ugo+x /var/www/cgi-bin/*
+}}}
 ==== Mapping Static Resources
+Out of the box, Trac will pass static resources such as style sheets or images through itself. For anything but a tracd only based deployment, this is far from optimal as the web server could be set up to directly serve those static resources. For CGI setup, this is '''highly undesirable''' as it causes abysmal performance.
+Web servers such as [http://httpd.apache.org/ Apache] allow you to create "Aliases" to resources, giving them a virtual URL that doesn't necessarily reflect the layout of the servers file system. We also can map requests for static resources directly to the directory on the file system, avoiding processing these requests by Trac itself.
+There are two primary URL paths for static resources - `/chrome/common` and `/chrome/site`. Plugins can add their own resources, usually accessible by `/chrome/<plugin>` path, so its important to override only known paths and not try to make universal `/chrome` alias for everything.
+Note that in order to get those static resources on the filesystem, you need first to extract the relevant resources from Trac using the [TracAdmin trac-admin]` <environment> deploy` command:
+[[TracAdminHelp(deploy)]]
+The target `<directory>` will then contain an `htdocs` directory with:
+ - `site/` - a copy of the environment's directory `htdocs/`
+ - `common/` - the static resources of Trac itself
+ - `<plugins>/` - one directory for each resource directory managed by the plugins enabled for this environment
+===== Example: Apache and `ScriptAlias` #ScriptAlias-example
+Assuming the deployment has been done this way:
+{{{#!sh
+$ trac-admin /var/trac/env deploy /path/to/shared/trac
+}}}
+Add the following snippet to Apache configuration ''before'' the `ScriptAlias` or `WSGIScriptAlias` (which map all the other requests to the Trac application), changing paths to match your deployment:
+Without additional configuration, Trac will handle requests for static resources such as stylesheets and images. For anything other than a TracStandalone deployment, this is not optimal as the web server can be set up to directly serve the static resources. For CGI setup, this is '''highly undesirable''' as it causes abysmal performance.
+Web servers such as [http://httpd.apache.org/ Apache] allow you to create //Aliases// to resources, giving them a virtual URL that doesn't necessarily reflect their location on the file system. We can map requests for static resources directly to directories on the file system, to avoid Trac processing the requests.
+There are two primary URL paths for static resources: `/chrome/common` and `/chrome/site`. Plugins can add their own resources, usually accessible at the `/chrome/<plugin>` path.
+A single `/chrome` alias can used if the static resources are extracted for all plugins. This means that the `deploy` command (discussed in the previous section) must be executed after installing or updating a plugin that provides static resources, or after modifying resources in the `$env/htdocs` directory. This is probably appropriate for most installations but may not be what you want if, for example, you wish to upload plugins through the //Plugins// administration page.
+The `deploy` command creates an `htdocs` directory with:
+ - `common/` - the static resources of Trac
+ - `site/` - a copy of the environment's `htdocs/` directory
+ - `shared` - the static resources shared by multiple Trac environments, with a location defined by the `[inherit]` `htdocs_dir` option
+ - `<plugin>/` - one directory for each resource directory provided by the plugins enabled for this environment
+The example that follows will create a single `/chrome` alias. If that isn't the correct approach for your installation you simply need to create more specific aliases:
 {{{#!apache
 Alias /trac/chrome/common /path/to/trac/htdocs/common
 Alias /trac/chrome/site /path/to/trac/htdocs/site
+Alias /trac/chrome/shared /path/to/trac/htdocs/shared
+Alias /trac/chrome/<plugin> /path/to/trac/htdocs/<plugin>
+}}}
+===== Example: Apache and `ScriptAlias` #ScriptAlias-example
+Assuming the deployment has been done this way:
+{{{#!sh
+$ trac-admin /var/trac/<project> deploy /var/www
+}}}
+Add the following snippet to Apache configuration, changing paths to match your deployment. The snippet must be placed ''before'' the `ScriptAlias` or `WSGIScriptAlias` directive, because those directives map all requests to the Trac application:
+{{{#!apache
+Alias /trac/chrome /path/to/trac/htdocs
 <Directory "/path/to/www/trac/htdocs">
+  Order allow,deny
+  Allow from all
+  # For Apache 2.2
+  <IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
+    Order allow,deny
+    Allow from all
+  </IfModule>
+  # For Apache 2.4
+  <IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
+    Require all granted
+  </IfModule>
 </Directory>
 }}}
 If using mod_python, you might want to add this too, otherwise the alias will be ignored:
+If using mod_python, add this too, otherwise the alias will be ignored:
 {{{#!apache
 <Location "/trac/chrome/common/">
+<Location "/trac/chrome/common">
   SetHandler None
 </Location>
 }}}
+Note that we mapped `/trac` part of the URL to the `trac.*cgi` script, and the path `/trac/chrome/common` is the path you have to append to that location to intercept requests to the static resources.
+Similarly, if you have static resources in a project's `htdocs` directory (which is referenced by `/trac/chrome/site` URL in themes), you can configure Apache to serve those resources (again, put this ''before'' the `ScriptAlias` or `WSGIScriptAlias` for the .*cgi scripts, and adjust names and locations to match your installation):
+Alternatively, if you wish to serve static resources directly from your project's `htdocs` directory rather than the location to which the files are extracted with the `deploy` command, you can configure Apache to serve those resources. Again, put this ''before'' the `ScriptAlias` or `WSGIScriptAlias` for the .*cgi scripts, and adjust names and locations to match your installation:
 {{{#!apache
 Alias /trac/chrome/site /path/to/projectenv/htdocs
 <Directory "/path/to/projectenv/htdocs">
+  Order allow,deny
+  Allow from all
+  # For Apache 2.2
+  <IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
+    Order allow,deny
+    Allow from all
+  </IfModule>
+  # For Apache 2.4
+  <IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
+    Require all granted
+  </IfModule>
 </Directory>
 }}}
 Alternatively to aliasing `/trac/chrome/common`, you can tell Trac to generate direct links for those static resources (and only those), using the [[TracIni#trac-section| [trac] htdocs_location]] configuration setting:

 Note that this makes it easy to have a dedicated domain serve those static resources, preferentially [http://code.google.com/speed/page-speed/docs/request.html#ServeFromCookielessDomain cookie-less].

 Of course, you still need to make the Trac `htdocs/common` directory available through the web server at the specified URL, for example by copying (or linking) the directory into the document root of the web server:

 ==== Setting up the Plugin Cache
+==== Setting up the Plugin Cache #egg-cache
 Some Python plugins need to be extracted to a cache directory. By default the cache resides in the home directory of the current user. When running Trac on a Web Server as a dedicated user (which is highly recommended) who has no home directory, this might prevent the plugins from starting. To override the cache location you can set the `PYTHON_EGG_CACHE` environment variable. Refer to your server documentation for detailed instructions on how to set environment variables.
+If you setup hook scripts that call Trac, such as the Subversion post-commit hook script provided in the `/contrib` directory, make sure you define the `PYTHON_EGG_CACHE` environment variable within these scripts as well.
 == Configuring Authentication
 …
 Please refer to one of the following sections:
  * TracStandalone#UsingAuthentication if you use the standalone server, `tracd`.
  * [wiki:TracModWSGI#ConfiguringAuthentication TracModWSGI#ConfiguringAuthentication] if you use the Apache web server, with any of its front end: `mod_wsgi` of course, but the same instructions applies also for `mod_python`, `mod_fcgi` or `mod_fastcgi`.
  * TracFastCgi if you are using another web server with FCGI support, such as Cherokee, Lighttpd, !LiteSpeed, nginx.
 The following document also contains some useful information for beginners: [trac:TracAuthenticationIntroduction].

 == Granting admin rights to the admin user
 Grant admin rights to user admin:
 {{{#!sh
 …
 }}}
+This user will have an "Admin" entry menu that will allow you to administrate your Trac project.
+== Finishing the install
+=== Enable version control components
+Support for version control systems is provided by optional components in Trac and the components are disabled by default //(since 1.0)//. Subversion and Git must be explicitly enabled if you wish to use them. See TracRepositoryAdmin for more details.
+The version control systems are enabled by adding the following to the `[components]` section of your [TracIni#components-section trac.ini], or enabling the components in the "Plugins" admin panel:
+{{{#!ini
+[components]
+tracopt.versioncontrol.svn.* = enabled
+}}}
+{{{#!ini
+[components]
+tracopt.versioncontrol.git.* = enabled
+}}}
+After enabling the components, repositories can be configured through the //Repositories// admin panel or by editing [TracIni#repositories-section trac.ini]. Automatic changeset references can be inserted as ticket comments by configuring [TracRepositoryAdmin#Automaticchangesetreferencesintickets CommitTicketUpdater].
+=== Using Trac
+This user will have an //Admin// navigation item that directs to pages for administering your Trac project.
+== Configuring Trac
+TracRepositoryAdmin provides information on configuring version control repositories for your project.
+== Using Trac
 Once you have your Trac site up and running, you should be able to create tickets, view the timeline, browse your version control repository if configured, etc.
