Upgrade - New Install on Windows

Added by Kamil AFACAN 7 days ago

There are so many requests in forum and help pages.
But I can not finalize the steps.
There is no explanation step by step for all components and the settings.
Is it really so complex to describe it for a beginner?

Please, describe the necessary and optional components of a standard Redmine installation,
in which sequence installation shall be performed, what is the parameters should be arranged
after installations.

This wonderfull effort (creating this site and the whole context) should not be kept alone !!!

Installing Redmine may seem complex, but with a structured approach, it's manageable. Begin by setting up essential components: Ruby, Rails, a database (such as MySQL or PostgreSQL), and web servers like Apache or Nginx. Download Redmine from its official site, configure the database.yml and configuration.yml files, and install necessary dependencies. Perform database migrations and precompile assets for production. Configure your web and application servers, then start Redmine and access it via your browser. By following these steps, you'll have a robust project management tool ready to use. For more details, the Redmine documentation is a great resource for.

Dear Melva Sarabia

Thanks for your prompt reply.
I think I could not express myself exactly.
I will aplly the installation with the sequence that you write.
1. Ruby - https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/ - https://rubyinstaller.org/
2. Rails - https://guides.rubyonrails.org/v5.0/getting_started.html - https://hotframeworks.com/railsinstaller-org/
3. A Database (MySQL)
4. Apache - https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/platform/windows.html
5. Redmine - https://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/download - https://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/RedmineInstall
6. Configure Database.yml
7. Configure configuration.yml
8. Install dependencies
9. Migrate database
10. Precompile assets for production.
11. Configure web servers
12. configure application servers
13. Start Redmine

I try to add the links that I use for downloading the parts of the structure. For a beginner, I think that this is not easy and clear enough.

I would appreciate if you add the links describing the process.

Thanks in advance
