h1. HowTo Install Redmine using Debian package
A redmine debian package is available in squeeze, sid and "lenny-backports":http://backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=instructions
Featuring:
* automatic database configuration,
* multiple instances support.
The core package is redmine.
Three packages (redmine-*) provide correct dependencies for mysql, pgsql, sqlite.
Currently there is no plugins support, although it's on the way.
h1. Installation details
h2. Install the necessary packages
From root console:
@apt-get install mysql@
during mysql setup, provide a new root password for mysql
@apt-get install redmine@
during redmine install, select mysql database with local connection, set the admin password for redmine_default database
h2. Correct the bug (wrong display):
vi $redmine_dir/vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/vendor.rb
and modify from
gem 'i18n', '>= 0.1.3'
in
gem 'i18n', '>= 0.1.3', '< 0.4.0'
@apt-get install libapache2-mod-passenger@
h2. Do some configuration
@ln -s /usr/share/redmine/public /var/www/redmine@
@chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/redmine@
@echo "RailsBaseURI /redmine" > /etc/apache2/sites-available/redmine@
@a2ensite redmine@
@/etc/init.d/apache2 reload@
@/etc/init.d/apache2 restart@
h2. Configure email smtp server
Copy from template:
@cp /usr/share/doc/redmine/examples/email.yml.example /etc/redmine/default/mail.yml@
Edit (at the end, there are uncommented production / development blocks to be filled in):
@vi /etc/redmine/default/mail.yml@
h2. Run the browser
Open http://localhost/redmine
Log in as admin / admin
h2. Futher configuration - SVN
Get the API key (settings / repositories)
Make a crontab to have repositories generated in the background:
@crontab -e@
In the editor, paste the following (this runs the scan of the projects and if needed it creates the svn repositories):
@/5 * * * * /usr/bin/ruby /usr/share/redmine/extra/svn/reposman.rb --redmine localhost/redmine --svn-dir /usr/home/svn --owner www-data --group www-data --url file:///usr/home/svn --verbose --key=YOUR_API_KEY_HERE --command="/usr/bin/svnadmin create" >> /var/log/reposman.log@
Configure servername/svn, so that svn repositories are available over apache webdav:
fixme

@vi $redmine_dir/vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/vendor.rb@
and modify from
@gem 'i18n', '>= 0.1.3'@
