Plugin installation problems

Hi,

i've serious problems to install any redmine plugin.
When i run

rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV="development"

it does nothing for plugins that imho should modify database, but it shows no error.
They register hooks, but when i try to use it i get exception/routing error.

Redmine info:
  About your application's environment
  Ruby version              1.8.7 (i486-linux)
  RubyGems version          1.3.4

  Environment               development
  Database adapter          postgresql
  Database schema version   20090708074337

- redmine 0.8.3 (official tarball)
  - Running via nginx/fcgi (also tried via mongrel without success)

I also have different redmine installation on another machine (same ruby version) that works without any problems, but when i copied that installation to my machine it doesn't work.

Have you any idea what am I doing wrong ?

Thanks
Sam

If you look at the generic plugin installation instructions at Plugins you would see that you should use another command to migrate the plugins DB-changes:

rake db:migrate_plugins RAILS_ENV="currently-used-environment"

Kind regards,

Mischa.

Sorry, bad copy&paste - i'use migrate_plugins (without any effect) ;)

In that case I'm practically out-of-options... :-( At least there should be a difference in the environments provided by both of your machines.

Ok, after many reinstallations and testing i've found it.

I've had config directory symlinked outside of redmine tree and therefore rake db:migrate_plugins didn't worked.
Curious for me, is that it works when config is symlinked to directory inside of redmine install tree.
Is that some dummy security restriction inside of rails ?
Or is this a bug ??
;-)

Have a nice day everyone
