HowTo Install Redmine using Debian package¶
A redmine debian package is available in squeeze, sid and lenny-backportsFeaturing:
- automatic database configuration,
- multiple instances support.
The core package is redmine.
Three packages (redmine-*) provide correct dependencies for mysql, pgsql, sqlite.
Several configurations are given as working examples in :
/usr/share/doc/redmine/examples
Explanations of how the configuration is dealt with are given in :
/usr/share/doc/redmine/README.Debian.gz
There is no per-instance support for plugins, but those dropped to :
/usr/share/redmine/vendor/plugins
should be ok.
The migrate_plugins task is called upon each (re)configuration or upgrade.
Since custom plugins are often bound to a specific redmine version, it is advised
to remove them before upgrades.
Installation details¶
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
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
Do some configuration¶
ln -s /usr/share/redmine/public /var/www/redmine ln -s /var/cache/redmine/default/plugin_assets /usr/share/redmine/public/ 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
Configure email smtp server¶
Copy from template:
cp /usr/share/doc/redmine/examples/email.yml.example /etc/redmine/default/email.yml
Edit (at the end, there are uncommented production / development blocks to be filled in):
vi /etc/redmine/default/email.yml
Run the browser¶
Log in as admin / admin
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
fix the bug in {{count}} display¶
vi $redmine_dir/vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/vendor.rb
and modify fromgem 'i18n', '>= 0.1.3'
ingem 'i18n', '>= 0.1.3', '< 0.4.0'
