Redmine on CentOS 6.2(almost there)

Hello,

I am not an expert on linux, let alone on Redmine, but where can I find the complete instructions for installing Redmine on CentOS 6.2? I have been using the instructions from this section "http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/How_to_Install_Redmine_on_CentOS_%28Detailed%29". I am getting lost starting with "Generate the session store" when I execute the command "RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake generate_session_store"

I get this response:
(in /var/www/redmine)
rake aborted!
no such file to load -- /var/www/redmine/config/boot
/var/www/redmine/Rakefile:4:in `require'
(See full trace by running task with --trace)

the instructions there just seem to imply that these are optional but then I dont know where to go from there, Like

- I dont know how to start the program "Redmine" and when I go to my web services all I can do is verify that apache is working.
- Cant tell what if any service has been started for Redmine

Lost need help Thanks for any ideas!

I have been able to verify that most if not all has been installed correctly ie.
- ruby 1.8.7 (2012-02-08 patchlevel 358) [i686-linux]
- httpd is started
- mysqld is started
- I turned off IPtables for now

Yes to all of these below:
Assumptions
CentOS is installed and works
Apache is installed and works
MySQL is installed and works
Your are logged as root
The next steps are done successively without errors

these are installed:
redmine-1.3.0.tar.gz
ruby-1.8.7-p357.tar.gz
rubygems-1.4.2.tgz

Have the same issue but nobody have answered yet. (

OK so it seems the CentOS documentation is a little bit out of date.
from what i can gather the RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake generate_session_store" command is no longer the one to use and generate_session_store has been deprecated (I may be wrong there)

So looking through the Generic install instructions there is a section which states:
Generate a session store secret.

with Redmine 1.4.x:
rake generate_session_store
with Redmine 2.x:
rake generate_secret_token

does this help you?

it seemed to work on mine, but i'm having issues elsewhere...
