[Trac] Re: Installing AccountManager Plugin

[Rob Wilkerson]

All, I'm back on this.  I decided to get fancy and try to install this
(and the others) globally and now I'm having a problem with WebAdmin.
TracNav and AccountManager work brilliantly, but WebAdmin won't load.
Investigation uncovers some differences, but I'm not sure what, if
anything, those differences mean.

I'm using the easy_install command for all and all 3 appear in
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/, but the WebAdmin plugin appears as
a directory.  The others appear as a file.  I did a simple download
from the plugin URL and simply removed the .zip extension.  When I
list the directory contents the permissions show up garbled:

TracWebAdmin-0.1.1dev_r2765-py2.4.egg:
total 0
?--------- ? ? ? ?            ? TracWebAdmin-0.1.1dev_r2765-py2.4.egg/.
?--------- ? ? ? ?            ? TracWebAdmin-0.1.1dev_r2765-py2.4.egg/webadmin
?--------- ? ? ? ?            ? TracWebAdmin-0.1.1dev_r2765-py2.4.egg/..
?--------- ? ? ? ?            ? TracWebAdmin-0.1.1dev_r2765-py2.4.egg/EGG-INFO

Anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks.
