Hi all,
if someone with wiki edit permissions is reading this, can you please
change TracIni page to read "The trac.ini configuration file *and its
parent directory* should be writable by the web server, ..." --
hopefully it'll save other some poor shmuck a couple of hours of "which
tf part of 'chmod 666' did you not understand" head scratching.
And which part of "this is a wiki" did you not understand? ;-) Only a
handful pages are read-only on t.e.o (like the front page WikiStart),
for the rest (TracIni included), everybody is happily encouraged to edit
and improve the content!
Side note: using the universal edit button makes it easy to notice when
one has write permissions on a wiki (not only Trac wikis but most - see
http://universaleditbutton.org)

Yeah, well, I'm sure I'll memorize yet another login and password that I
will use most likely never again to add three words to some wiki page.
Aside from the obvious bit where having to make trac.ini world-writable
in order to make trac work is wrong.
