Description

Hi Everyone,

I’ve been looking through various forums and help pages regarding Redmine installation and upgrade on Windows, but I’m struggling to piece together a clear, step-by-step guide. It seems that while there are many resources available, a comprehensive explanation that covers all components and settings in detail is hard to find.

For a beginner, understanding the entire process can be quite overwhelming. Could someone please provide a detailed description of:

The necessary and optional components for a standard Redmine installation
The correct sequence for performing the installation
The parameters and settings that need to be configured after the installation is complete
Having a well-structured guide would greatly help in ensuring a smooth setup process. Your assistance in breaking down these steps clearly for someone new to this would be immensely appreciated.

Thank you for your help and for creating such a valuable resource!

Best regards,

after hosting my redmine v4 instance on windows for about 8 years, I could not find a configuration that would work on any redmine version 5+.
I have tried many combinations of ruby and such and after a certain version of ruby, the available windows ruby packages seem to be unable to install all the required libraries all the way without lots of errors, even when trying to manually fix/install things...
good luck with the documentation lol... hope it works out
