On Windows XP i try to download simplemultiproject plugin but got an error message

[yesper.larsson@…]

Hi!

Let's start to say that i'm not an expert in this field. I have now set up the Bitnami trac and starting to download plugin's. I used easy_install and downloaded the tracacountmanager plugin and it worked perfect. Then i wanted to also download and install simplemultiproject plugin but got the ERROR message saying unexpected HTML page. So i search on the net and saw that several have had to upgrade, so i did that also with easy_install -U setuptool to get the latest. Still after this i get the same message. As the first plug in worked i can't see i have a proxy issue either. Can someone guide me here? Also how do i know the easy_install have the latest update and what version it has on windowns? Also for quriosity whats the difference between easy_install and easy_install-2.7?

See below

Please, install as described here. I don't know about easy_install and its issues.

Installation using easy_install should work TracPlugins#Fromsource. Please raise the issue on the ​trac:MailingList if you continue to have trouble. I don't think whatever issue you are experiencing is due to SimpleMultiProjectPlugin.

You can check your version of easy_install with easy_install --version.

Hi!

THANK's for the quick support and help. I manage to update that simplemultiproject plugin as described above not useing easy_install. I think we can close this issue as i have very strange behaviour on my machine that i can't explain and probably the root cause of this. If i restarted the computer i was able to use easy_install and download the RPC plugin also. But when trying again to download the simplemultiproject plugin i get the same error message. Note that i had the same scenario and error message when trying download the RPC plugin before. Restart again then i could the first time move on with the simplemultiproject plugin but get another error in the end.

Anyway old computer i will not bother you with this. If i experiance the same issue with easy install i ask again. Buy the way does it exist a project management plugin that have agile and time estimation functionality in ONE package. I have seen that you can build it up with several.

Thanks for a nice SW by the way we continue to use it in our development and it has been very usefull.

One additional tip: there are many ways to install a Trac package, so many that it can be confusing to get a grasp on. The Python community seems to be embracing pip as the standard for package management. pip is included in Python 2.7.9 and 3.4. Your efforts may be best spent working with pip rather than easy_install.
