PermRedirect failure when using AuthManagerPlugin's HttpAuthStore subsystem

[Joe Kiniry]

​One of our Trac servers is configured to authenticate via AccountManagerPlugin's use of LDAP authentication over HTTP using HttpAuthStore.

Correct authentications work fine, but incorrect authentications result in the following stack trace:

Python Traceback

    except HTTPError, inst:
NameError: global name 'HTTPError' is not defined

PermRedirectPlugin is enabled

permredirect.* = enabled
permredirect.filter.permredirectmodule = enabled

and works fine for our other Trac servers, but they all authenticate using other means.

Ideas or advice welcome.

Sounds like you are trying to use the 0.11 version of acct_mgr with Trac 0.10.
