[2.4.2]File repository not writable

Added by Francesco Stupazzoni over 10 years ago

Hi

I've tried an install of 2.4.2:

sh: 1: svn: not found
sh: 1: darcs: not found
sh: 1: hg: not found
sh: 1: cvs: not found
sh: 1: bzr: not found
sh: 1: git: not found
Environment:
Redmine version 2.4.2.stable
Ruby version 1.9.3-p194 (2012-04-20) [x86_64-linux]
Rails version 3.2.16
Environment production
Database adapter Mysql2
SCM:
Filesystem
Redmine plugins:
no plugin installed

but when going on Administration, Information, it says file repository is not writable, while it should:

ls -ls /usr/share/redmine/

Any hint?

Thanks

I'll answer to myself:
ps auxf | grep redmine

gives:

nobody 3546 1.1 9.8 270444 101232 ? Sl 11:07 0:09 Passenger RackApp: /usr/share/redmine

So I did a

chown -R nobody:nogroup /usr/share/redmine/files
chown -R nobody:nogroup /usr/share/redmine/log
chown -R nobody:nogroup /usr/share/redmine/plugins
chown -R nobody:nogroup /usr/share/redmine/tmp
chown -R nobody:nogroup /usr/share/redmine/public/plugin_assets

and it works now.

The question is whether is it better to run passenger as nobody or as www-data.

See the other topic about it.
