I have decided to install mercurial from scratch and by compiling from the source using this documentation page: http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/UnixInstall

It all goes almost well until: $ hg debuginstall.

If I run it as a regular user, I get:

------------ Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/hg", line 11, in <module> mercurial.commands.run() AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'run'

-------------

And if I run it as root:

------------- Checking encoding (UTF-8)... Checking extensions... Checking templates... Checking patch... Checking merge helper... Checking commit editor... Checking username... No username found, using 'root@ubuntu' instead (specify a username in your .hgrc file) No problems detected

---------------

Is that okay?

Now browsing the repository has come back finally!

So I try pushing through http, and I get the error as a regular user: $hg push http://ubuntu:83

-------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/hg", line 11, in <module> mercurial.commands.run() AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'run'

----------------------

And as root: $sudo hg push http://ubuntu:83

------------------- pushing to http://ubuntu:83 searching for changes abort: 'http://ubuntu:83/' does not appear to be an hg repository!

----------------------

Well I am back to square one, and actually things have gotten even worse, because now I need to push being root.

I am totally lost with that issue.

I will roll back to my previous setup using the ubuntu mercurial package and the old hgweb.cgi file, and I'll try to correct the permissions or something like that. If nothing works I'll have to move on to another DVCS as I won't let nginx down.
