Redmine

Here is my basic process:

- Install bitnami stack (0.8.4)
- Checkout trunk into a new folder
- Backup database and files folder
- Copy database.yml, email.yml to trunk folder
- Set RAILS_GEM_VERSION = '2.3.2' for environment.rb since that is what bitnami uses
- Run rake config/initializers/session_store.rb
- Run rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV="production"
- Copy bitnami related folders (redmine/conf, redmine/scripts) to the trunk folder
- Rename the original folder to .old and rename the trunk folder to /redmine/
- Restart the mongrel and apache services

When I try to access the site I get this error:

Proxy Error

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /redmine/.

Reason: Error reading from remote server

Some more info:

I am going to try installing rails 2.2.2 specifically and cross my fingers.

Well I can get it started with ruby script/server -e production. I had to update the mysql gem.

However, the bitnami mogrel services do not work at all. The log shows the following:

Ok I think I have finally narrowed this down. I can start it myself just fine.

However, the bitnami service starter which runs the following script to install the service:

"C:\Program Files\BitNami Redmine Stack\ruby\bin\ruby.exe" "C:\Program Files\BitNami Redmine Stack\ruby\bin\mongrel_rails" service::install -N "redmineMongrel1" -p 3001 -e production -c "C:\Program Files\BitNami Redmine Stack\apps\redmine" --prefix /redmine -S "C:\Program Files\BitNami Redmine Stack\apps\redmine\scripts\mongrel_rails_envvars"
sc config redmineMongrel1 start= auto
net start redmineMongrel1 >NUL

Results in this:

• Starting Mongrel listening at 0.0.0.0:3001
• Starting Rails with production environment...
• Mounting Rails at /redmine...
  !!! The bundled mysql.rb driver has been removed from Rails 2.2. Please install the mysql gem and try again: gem install mysql.

  C:/Program Files/BitNami Redmine Stack/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.7.1-x86-mswin32/ext/mysql.so: 126: The specified module could not be found. - C:/Program Files/BitNami Redmine Stack/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/mysql-2.7.1-x86-mswin32/ext/mysql.so (LoadError)

Obviously the mysql gem is installed since it works fine manually. Something is wrong with the way that service is set up.

Ok this post fixed my sql problem: http://forums.aptana.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=7563

But when I browse to the server:

500 Internal Server Error

I must have made a mistake somewhere now. Even when I run script/server -e production I get that error.

w00t got it! I had cleaned it up earlier and for got to run rake config/initializers/session_store.rb again.
