Redmine

1. auto paste to pastebin might be bad since users will want to review for sensitive data
2. Should hook this up on Admin > Info also. Then it can pick up how it's hosted and we don't have worry which RAILS_ENV they are running in.
3. It needs to be both web and cli, in case they have a problem with one or the other

Information I would like to see (includes the stuff from script/about already):

• Redmine Version
  • svn info
  • git show HEAD
  • Point release installed from package
• Ruby version
• RubyGems version
• Rack version
• Rake version
• Rails version
• Active Record version
• Active Resource version
• Action Mailer version
• Active Support version
• Application root
• RAILS_ENV
• Database adapter
• Database schema version
• Information about the environment Redmine is installed
• Backend server information
  • Is it running apache, nginx, passenger, thin, mongrel, etc.
    • If so what versions?
    • Where would the relevant log files for this backend typically be
  • OS info
• Database
  • Encoding
• Plugin List
  • Including version info of each plugin
• Settings
  • Theme name if non-default
  • Message encoding (UTF8?)

I have extended the /admin/info view and the script/about script with the information requested by Muntek. Automatic pasting to a website was not implemented because of possibly security implications. It is up to the user to paste it to a site herself.

You can find the patch in the feature branch on http://github.com/meineerde/redmine/tree/5420-redmine-info. It might need some additional unit tests, but for me, it does what is expected: Give me more debug information :) I would love to see this patch included into 1.0.2 to ease support in the forums and IRC.

Holger:

Last I checked, that patch removed the Plugin Administration panel. Is that still the case?

Any update on this Holger?
