Install fails silently

[dorothym@…]

I have followed the instructions on the SimpleMultiProjectPlugin page.

I cannot see the plugin in the admin panel and the database does not have the smp_project table.

No errors reported but curiously

trac-admin /instance_trac/ upgrade 

reports that "Database is up to date, no upgrade necessary."

I'm running on ubuntu 12.10 with MySQL version 5.5.29-0ubuntu0.12.10.1:

I copied the .egg directory to my trac instance plugins directory and restarted Apache and then tried to update the database but it seemed to think that it is up to date.

Any help appreciated. Thanks Dorothy

Several restarts of Apache followed by a restart of mysql enabled trac to detect that a database upgrade was necessary.

Will mark as closed.
