Step 4: Configure Tracim Settings

Before launching Tracim, we need to set up some configuration settings. Copy the sample configuration file to the correct Tracim configuration directory:

sudo cp .tracimrc.sample /etc/tracim/tracimrc

Open the Tracim configuration file using your favorite text editor:

Update the following settings to reflect your desired values:

LOG_FILE_NAME = 'tracim.log'
LOG_LEVEL = 'WARNING'

Save and exit the configuration file.

Step 5: Initialize the Database

We need to initialize the Tracim database using the following command:

sudo python3 setup.py develop
sudo python3 initdb.py
