Hi,
The Trac JumpBox is a virtual machine, so it runs a virtual linux computer. Trac is installed and running on the virtual computer. So you won't find the trac.ini anywhere on your Mac computer. You would have to register, enable shell access, then remotely log into the JumpBox using ssh (ssh is easy on the Mac, just open a terminal and type ssh admin@jumpboxip). On windows you would have to use something like Putty to SSH to the JumpBox.

Once you are logged into the JumpBox over SSH the trac.ini file can be found at
/var/data/projects/trac/project/conf/trac.ini and you can edit it with the editor called nano with the command:

sudo nano -B /var/data/projects/trac/project/conf/trac.ini

The sudo lets you run the nano command as root, it will ask you for the admin users password. That should set you off in the right direction. Also, be warned, you can break you JumpBox if you type the wrong commands on the shell, editing the trac.ini could be especially dangerous. I added a "-B" to the edit command above, this will save a backup of the file you are editing, that way you can always revert to that.

Good luck and proceed with caution.

Thanks!

Good luck

Hi - where can I find the trac.ini file? I would like to change some basic settings like the logo and link, but I can't find the file.

I have tried looking in /usr/share/trac/conf, but can't find it there.

Thanks!
