HowTo Install Redmine using Debian package

A redmine debian package is available in squeeze, sid and lenny-backports
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.

Installation details

  • Install debian squeeze
  • Install the necessary packages and follow the wizard during the installation. Most of dependencies (apart from mysql and the mod passenger library) are resolved by apt-get

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
apt-get install libapache2-mod-passenger

  • 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

  1. Run the browser at http://localhost/redmine
