Redmine

I haven't used bitnami before, but based on the readme it is using mongrel so to restart redmine you need to restart mongrel. It may also restart redmine for you when you restart apache.

• Mongrel1
• Mongrel2
• Subversion
• Apache
• MySQL

To restart Redmine you need to restart both Mongrel services

Hmmm Ok now I'm getting somewhere. Now another question. How do you restart Mongrel? I tried restarting the apache but it didn't restart redmine.

Thanks in advance,

j

For Windows - like any other Windows Service - type following in command prompt (cmd.exe):

net stop Mongrel1
net start Mongrel1
net stop Mongrel2
net start Mongrel2

what about on a Linux server? also trying to do this and redmine is not recognizing that I made any changes.

I don't have bitnami and I'm not using Mongrel. How do I restart Redmine in order to use the email.yml configuration?

Do you use apache with passenger? then you can use following command:

touch REDMINE_ROOT/tmp/restart.txt

What should the restart.txt contain?

It doesn't matter. My one contains restart

tried it in /usr/share/redmine/tmp/restart.txt

and then touch /usr/share/redmine/tmp/restart.txt

does nothing at all... what am I missing?

Do you really use apache with passenger?

I don't know, followed generic installation instructions for Ubuntu.
How can I tell?

On my Bitnami Windows install my services were prefaced with "redmine":

net stop redmineMongrel1
net start redmineMongrel1
net stop redmineMongrel2
net start redmineMongrel2

hi! I don't know how to restart the service.. I'm using postgres...

and I'm not using Bitnami..

Try this:
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

thanks, but I have already tried that command and it has not worked.

Do you know which web server you run?
Which OS do you run and if Linux, which distribution and version?

OS: ubuntu 11.04
server: appserv

Do you use Apache?

Check your new created plugin folder permission. It should be same as others folder
