Fresh install on debian lenny gives 500 internal server error

Added by Ali Rıza Keleş over 15 years ago

Hi all,

I am getting 500 Internal Server Error from my fresh installed redmine on debian lenny. I installed as described on wiki. But when i tried it first time, got 500 error. Later it never changed. I didn't get any other error different from 500. I used webrick with debugger to watch, but it also said that 500 internal server error. Perhaps it is about a conflict between versions of components. Their versions are as above:

Ruby version 1.8.7 (i486-linux)
RubyGems version 1.3.4
Rails version 2.2.2
Active Record version 2.2.2
Action Pack version 2.2.2
Active Resource version 2.2.2
Action Mailer version 2.2.2
Active Support version 2.2.2
Application root /var/www/network/redmine
Environment production
Database adapter mysql
Database schema version 20090614091200

Thanks for your help..

Can you post the output from your log/production.log? A 500 error just means "Something broke", the log file will have the information we can use to help you.

Your software versions look fine to me.

Thank you. I solved it by the help of redmine's logs. Log/production.log.

I had skipped 4. step because of a misunderstanding.

4. Generate a session store secret (r2493 and higher only. 0.8.x users can skip this step) ***

At first sight, I had understood that higher 0.8.x users can skip this step. English is not my native lang.

I did it and now it works well..

Thank you.

Thanks for feedback, I reworded that phrase to try and make it clearer.

4. Generate a session store secret. This is only required on the trunk version of Redmine at r2493 or above. Users installing a released version of 0.8.x can skip this step.
