I have installed Trac and it reports the following error when I'm trying to access its page:

Internal Server Error

TracError: IOError: (13, 'Permission denied')

Any suggestions what needs to be checked?

    Since you are getting a permission denied error the probably is almost certainly related to file-system permissions somewhere. I don't know Trac, but I would guess it needs to have a temp directory or data directory somewhere to be writeable. – Zoredache Jun 16 '10 at 19:17
  • I have chowned its trac's directory to apache. – grigy Jun 16 '10 at 19:22
  • enable logging (to file, debug level); that should give a traceback that will have useful clues. – retracile Jun 16 '10 at 22:06

Enable debug in trac.ini. Restart apache (usually is ran behind apache) and check for errors in trac.log
Also verify error.log from apache.

I guess you have to change the owner to apache's user for all files and dirs of your trac instance.
