    55== Creating an Environment == 
    66 
    7 A new Trac environment is created using  [wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin]: 
     7A new Trac environment is created using  [TracAdmin#initenv trac-admin's initenv]: 
    88{{{ 
    99$ trac-admin /path/to/myproject initenv 
    1010}}} 
    1111 
    12 [wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin] will ask you for the name of the project and the 
     12`trac-admin` will ask you for the name of the project and the 
    1313database connection string (explained below).

    15 ''Note: The user under which the web server runs will require file system write permission to  
    16 the environment directory and all the files inside. Please remember to set 
    17 the appropriate permissions. The same applies to the source code repository,  
    18 although the user under which Trac runs will only require write access to a Subversion repository created with the BDB file system 
    19 ; for other repository types, check the corresponding plugin's documentation.  
    20 Also, it seems that project names with spaces can be problematic for authentication (see [trac:#7163]).'' 
     15=== Some Useful Tips 
     16 - The user under which the web server runs will require file system write permission to  
     17 the environment directory and all the files inside. Please remember to set 
     18 the appropriate permissions. The same applies to the source code repository,  
     19 although the user under which Trac runs will only require write access to a Subversion repository created with the BDB file system; for other repository types, check the corresponding plugin's documentation.

     21 - `initenv` when using svn repository does not imply that trac-admin will perform `svnadmin create` for the specified repository path. You need to perform the `svnadmin create` prior to `trac-admin initenv` if you're creating a new svn repository altogether with a new trac environment, otherwise you will see a message "Warning: couldn't index the repository" when initializing the environment.

     23 - Non-ascii environment paths are not supported 
     24  
     25 - Also, it seems that project names with spaces can be problematic for authentication (see [trac:#7163]). 
     26 
     27 - TracPlugins located in a [TracIni#inherit-section shared plugins folder] that is defined in an [TracIni#GlobalConfiguration inherited configuration] are currently not loaded during creation, and hence, if they need to create extra tables for example, you'll need to [TracUpgrade#UpgradetheTracEnvironment upgrade the environment] before being able to use it.
