[Trac] No icons?

Hi Matthew,

You might have an error with the mod_rewrite rules or something like
this (sorry, I lack time to review these rules). Missing icons (and
most likely the presentation coming from the CSS stylesheet files)
means that your browser cannot reach the static files from Trac, i.e.
what's in the "htdocs" directory.

One possible issue is that the /trac/ part of the URL get remapped
either by the rewrite rules or by Trac itself, depending on the
config. You might want to double check carefully this point.

A good start point is to change the "htdocs_location" entry within the
"trac" section from your <project>/conf/trac.ini file, to use a very
different path (not 'trac' or something that you already used in the
Apache URL parts).
Trac will then generates the matching URLs for the static files, that
is the one you can read  in the top lines of the HTML source code your
browser retrieves from the web server

e.g.:
<head><title>Timeline - project - Trac</title><link rel="start"
href="/trac/project/wiki" /> ...

You can then compares these URL to the actual file path.

HTH,
Manu.
