Anonymous users seem to have access

[Scott Grayban <sgrayban@…>]

It seems that anonymous users have some access to this plugin. Not sure is this is my error or a error in the plugin.

You can see what I mean at my ​website.

There is also a trackback error I get when usiing this.

[Noah Kantrowitz]

Are you running the most recent version? Those should both have been fixed in trunk.

[Scott Grayban <sgrayban@…>]

Bottom of my trac site says "Powered by Trac 0.9.4"

[Noah Kantrowitz]

I mean the most recent version of this plugin.

[Scott Grayban <sgrayban@…>]

I downloaded the version that is in the zip file link on the page.

/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/HackInstall-0.5-py2.4.egg/hackinstall/web_ui.pyc

That is what it compiled from that zip file.

I'm running the standalone server if that would be a problem.

[Noah Kantrowitz]

Please try doing an actual checkout, and rebuild from that.

[Scott Grayban <sgrayban@…>]

Ok that fixed the Admin issue. You should zip a new file from the svn then. The one you have for the download is bad.

However I still can't install any plugins. The only log I have is the log thats in the standalone. There are no webserver logs for a standalone server so this is all I can offer.

Anything on this yet?

[Alec Thomas]

The ZIP download links have been fixed. This was an issue on TracHacks.

[Scott Grayban <sgrayban@…>]

Still not working here for me.

Any ideas why this is happening? Shouldn't the plugin work on standalone Trac sites?

[Scott Grayban <sgrayban@…>]

Running the command manually works just fine with a error that can be ignored.

Installed /var/trac/project/castpodder/plugins/TracDiscussion-0.1-py2.4.egg

Because this distribution was installed --multi-version or --install-dir,
before you can import modules from this package in an application, you
will need to 'import pkg_resources' and then use a 'require()' call
similar to one of these examples, in order to select the desired version:

    pkg_resources.require("TracDiscussion")  # latest installed version
    pkg_resources.require("TracDiscussion==0.1")  # this exact version
    pkg_resources.require("TracDiscussion>=0.1")  # this version or higher


Note also that the installation directory must be on sys.path at runtime for
this to work.  (e.g. by being the application's script directory, by being on
PYTHONPATH, or by being added to sys.path by your code.)

Well thanks for atleast looking. I removed your plugin since it obviously doesn't work. You haven't even responded to this. Shame, it had potential but I have no time to hack code you should be fixing.

[Noah Kantrowitz]

Several points of note:

1. This plugin is still very experimental, but it works quite well on my development server.
2. I do intend to fix this, but as a full time student I have other priorities.
3. This is largely community supported, so I will accept a patch from just about anyone. This is no more my job than anyone else's.
