 Then it whines about no database called "trac":
-<pre>

-Database connection string [sqlite:db/trac.db]> mysql://root:root@localhost:8889/trac
+That's about when everything starts to crumble apart and the Trac user's manual becomes basically useless.  No Trac wiki page mentions whether Trac creates the "trac" db, or whether I create the "trac" db.  No Trac wiki page mentions what tables should go into this db. No Trac wiki page covers any steps between "I finished installing subversion" and "You now have subversion magically working with Trac!"
-Creating and Initializing Project
+Next the Trac wiki mentions authentication, and a configure file to be edited.  This page then sends me off to several other pages about authentication and htpasswd. Somewhere in the middle of all of it you end up staring at a huge Trac configuration file with 1-2 lines about MySQL and you wonder what you're even doing in the first place.

+Then there's a bunch of handwaving on the part of the Trac wiki, and a message that says "Once you have everything up and running..."
-That's about when everything starts to crumble apart and the Trac user's manual becomes basically useless.  It wants authentication, and a configure file to be edited, and then I'm told to jump around and visit all these other pages about authentication and htpasswd, and somewhere in the middle of it I'm staring at this huge configuration file and I have no idea what I'm even doing.
+The Trac wiki also doesn't say what directories should go where, or what they are for - e.g. should the Trac project folder go into the public web directory? If so, why does it have its own htdocs directory? How does Trac work with Apache? What about config files, where do they go if I make the whole project directory public?
-Then there's a bunch of handwaving, and a message that says "Once you have everything up and running..." - and of course I'm going WHAT???
+So, basically, Trac wiki's documentation is a complete failure to communicate necessary information beyond the first basic steps.
-Where am I supposed to be putting ucg-trac directory?  In my htdocs folder? If not, then why does it have its own htdocs folder? And what about config files??? This is so screwed up.
+I ran into many, many problems with SVN as well, which Trac claims to support "out of the box" (yeah right):
