Description of problem: When starting /usr/sbin/tracd with --daemonize and --pidfile it dies, leaving a log message: Error writing to pid file: IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '{path-to-pidfile}' Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): trac-0.12.3-1.fc16.noarch How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install trac and set up an environment as per instructions. Example assumes trac runs as user 'trac' and environment is /var/lib/trac/projects/myproject/. Be sure directory 'run' exists in environment and is owned by user trac. 2.As root, give command runuser -l trac -c '/usr/sbin/tracd --daemonize --pidfile=/var/lib/trac/projects/myproject/run/tracd.pid --port=8181 3. Actual results: Observe that tracd is not running Expected results: Should be able to connect to daemon on localhost port 8181. Additional info: This bug is documented with a fix at http://trac.edgewall.org/ticket/10566 The problem is that tracd daemon tests for writeability of pid file by an open that requires the file to exist. But the file does not exist initially and if it did it is deleted when tracd instance exits. The fix is to edit /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/trac/util/daemon.py, changing line 49: < fileobj = open(pidfile, 'r+') --- > fileobj = open(pidfile, 'w+')
