#86 closed defect (fixed)

Running multiple autoinstalled instances of Trac causes them all to look the same

Description

This is because the trac.fcgis are all symlinks to the same executable, so Apache thinks they're the same script and reuses old processes from one site for the other site. A simple solution is to copy /mit/scripts/deploy/trac/trac.fcgi into place instead of symlinking it.

This seems to no longer be an issue.

Recent Trac autoinstalls seem to use a stub trac.fcgi with exec instead of a symlink:

adehnert@novgorod trac [06:02] $ cat trac.fcgi 
#!/bin/sh
exec /afs/athena.mit.edu/contrib/scripts/deploy/trac/trac.fcgi "$@"

Setting a header logo for one Trac in a locker seems to have no impact on various other auto-installed Trac instances in the same locker.

I'm going to take the liberty of closing this. Somebody should reopen it if they see the issue again (or don't believe it got fixed).
