Redmine

I'm attempting to install a standard version of Redmine on a Centos 6 server. It works using webrick, but I can't get it working otherwise.

1. ./public/dispatch.fcgi.example
   /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/activesupport-3.2.13/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:251:in `require': cannot load such file -- fcgi (LoadError)
   from /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/activesupport-3.2.13/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:251:in `block in require'
   from /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/activesupport-3.2.13/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:236:in `load_dependency'
   from /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/activesupport-3.2.13/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:251:in `require'
   from /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/rack-1.4.5/lib/rack/handler/fastcgi.rb:1:in `<top (required)>'
   from ./public/dispatch.fcgi.example:20:in `<main>'

Updating my own ticket with a fix: Went here and followed the instructions so I could expand the list of packages to install: http://www.rackspace.com/knowledge_center/article/installing-rhel-epel-repo-on-centos-5x-or-6x Then I could do a 'yum install mod_fcgid fcgi_devl' followed by adding a Gemfile.local with 'gem "fcgi"', then 'bundle install'. Phew. Redmine is definitely one of the most tricky installs I've done.

// So I tried loading the fcgi gem:

1. gem install fcgi
   Building native extensions. This could take a while...
   ERROR: Error installing fcgi:
   ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

   /usr/bin/ruby extconf.rb
   checking for fcgiapp.h... no
   checking for fastcgi/fcgiapp.h... no

make
make: *** No targets. Stop.

Gem files will remain installed in /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/fcgi-0.9.1 for inspection.
Results logged to /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/fcgi-0.9.1/ext/fcgi/gem_make.out

// So I need a header file...

1. yum install fcgi-devel
   Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, presto, priorities, security

   Setting up Install Process

   Error: Nothing to do

// stuck! (Apache is installed with mod_fcgid if that's relevant)
Any help would be much appreciated. I'm trying to present Redmine as a solution for my company!
