h2. Redmine Version
53
54
It is recommended that the majority of users install the proper point releases of redmine. Redmine currently releases a new version every 6 months, and these releases are considered very usable and stable. It is *not* recommended to install redmine from trunk, unless you are deeply familiar with Ruby on Rails and keep up with the changes - Trunk _does_ break from time-to-time.

h3. Step 4 - Dependencies installation
197
198
Redmine uses "Bundler":http://gembundler.com/ to manage gems dependencies.
199
200 310 Go MAEDA
You need to install Bundler first if you use Ruby 2.5 or earlier:
201 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
202 323 Holger Just
<pre>
203
gem install bundler
204
</pre>
205 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
206
Then you can install all the gems required by Redmine using the following command:
207
208 323 Holger Just
<pre>
209
bundle config set --local without 'development test' 
210
bundle install
211
</pre>
212 202 Jean-Philippe Lang
213
h4. Optional dependencies
214
215 310 Go MAEDA
h5. RMagick
216
217 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
RMagick is an interface between the Ruby programming language and the ImageMagick image processing library. The library is necessary for Redmine prior to 4.1.0 to export gantt charts to PNG or PDF.
218
219
If ImageMagick (6.4.9 - 6.9.10) is not installed on your system and you are installing Redmine 4.0 or earlier, you should skip the installation of the rmagick gem using:
220
221 323 Holger Just
<pre>
222
bundle config set --local without 'development test rmagick' 
223
bundle install
224
</pre>
225 202 Jean-Philippe Lang
226
If you have trouble installing @rmagick@ on Windows, refer to [[HowTo_install_rmagick_gem_on_Windows|this HowTo]].
227
228
h5. Database adapters
229
230 214 Etienne Massip
Redmine automatically installs the adapter gems required by your database configuration by reading it from the @config/database.yml@ file (eg. if you configured only a connection using the @mysql2@ adapter, then only the @mysql2@ gem will be installed).
231
232
Don't forget to re-run @bundle install --without development test ...@ after adding or removing adapters in the @config/database.yml@ file!
233 202 Jean-Philippe Lang
234 342 Marius BĂLTEANU
h5. Queues adapter
235 341 Marius BĂLTEANU
236 345 Marius BĂLTEANU
Redmine uses @ActiveJob::QueueAdapters::AsyncAdapter@ as default queue adapter which is "not recommended":https://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveJob/QueueAdapters/AsyncAdapter.html for production environment. Recommended adapter is "Sidekiq":https://github.com/sidekiq/sidekiq which uses Redis for persistance. Configuration guide: [[SidekiqConfiguration]].
237 341 Marius BĂLTEANU
238 202 Jean-Philippe Lang
h4. Additional dependencies (@Gemfile.local@)
239
240
If you need to load gems that are not required by Redmine core (eg. Puma, fcgi), create a file named @Gemfile.local@ at the root of your redmine directory. It will be loaded automatically when running @bundle install@.
241
242
Example:
243
<pre>
244
# Gemfile.local
245
gem 'puma'
246 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
</pre>
247
248 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 5 - Session store secret generation
249 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
250 165 Etienne Massip
This step generates a random key used by Rails to encode cookies storing session data thus preventing their tampering.
251 151 Jean-Philippe Lang
Generating a new secret token invalidates all existing sessions after restart.
252 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
253 151 Jean-Philippe Lang
<pre>
254 234 Go MAEDA
bundle exec rake generate_secret_token
255 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
</pre>
256 90 Jiongliang Zhang
257 243 Toshi MARUYAMA
Alternatively, you can store this secret in config/secrets.yml:
258
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/upgrading_ruby_on_rails.html#config-secrets-yml
259
260 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 6 - Database schema objects creation
261 90 Jiongliang Zhang
262 165 Etienne Massip
Create the database structure, by running the following command under the application root directory:
263
264 271 Toshi MARUYAMA
<pre>
265 278 Toshi MARUYAMA
RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake db:migrate
266 271 Toshi MARUYAMA
</pre>
267
268
*Windows syntax:*
269
270
<pre>
271
set RAILS_ENV=production
272 184 Etienne Massip
bundle exec rake db:migrate
273 271 Toshi MARUYAMA
</pre>
274 184 Etienne Massip
275
It will create tables by running all migrations one by one then create the set of the permissions and the application administrator account, named @admin@.
276
277 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 7 - Database default data set
278 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
279 165 Etienne Massip
Insert default configuration data in database, by running the following command:
280
281 234 Go MAEDA
  RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake redmine:load_default_data
282 62 Vladimir L
283 171 Etienne Massip
Redmine will prompt you for the data set language that should be loaded; you can also define the @REDMINE_LANG@ environment variable before running the command to a value which will be automatically and silently picked up by the task.
284
285
E.g.:
286
287
Unices:
288
289 234 Go MAEDA
  RAILS_ENV=production REDMINE_LANG=fr bundle exec rake redmine:load_default_data
290 171 Etienne Massip
291
Windows:
292
<pre>
293
set RAILS_ENV=production
294
set REDMINE_LANG=fr
295 234 Go MAEDA
bundle exec rake redmine:load_default_data
296 171 Etienne Massip
</pre>
297 32 Jean-Philippe Lang
298 167 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 8 - File system permissions
299 32 Jean-Philippe Lang
300 165 Etienne Massip
NB: _Windows users can skip this section._
301 14 Jean-Philippe Lang
302 165 Etienne Massip
The user account running the application must have write permission on the following subdirectories:
303 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
304 165 Etienne Massip
# @files@ (storage of attachments)
305
# @log@ (application log file @production.log@)
306 167 Etienne Massip
# @tmp@ and @tmp/pdf@ (create these ones if not present, used to generate PDF documents among other things)
307 220 Jean-Baptiste Barth
# @public/plugin_assets@ (assets of plugins)
308 221 Jean-Baptiste Barth
309 167 Etienne Massip
E.g., assuming you run the application with a redmine user account:
310 165 Etienne Massip
311 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
<pre>
312 219 Jean-Baptiste Barth
mkdir -p tmp tmp/pdf public/plugin_assets
313 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
sudo chown -R redmine:redmine files log tmp public/plugin_assets
314
sudo chmod -R 755 files log tmp public/plugin_assets
315
</pre>
316
317 284 Toshi MARUYAMA
Note: If you have files in these directories (e.g. restore files from backup), make sure these files are not executable.
318
319
<pre>
320
sudo find files log tmp public/plugin_assets -type f -exec chmod -x {} +
321
</pre>
322
323 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 9 - Test the installation
324 151 Jean-Philippe Lang
325 328 Marius BĂLTEANU
Test the installation by running Puma web server:
326 244 Jan Niggemann (redmine.org team member)
327
<pre>
328 328 Marius BĂLTEANU
bundle exec rails server -e production
329 165 Etienne Massip
</pre>
330 14 Jean-Philippe Lang
331 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 10 - Logging into the application
332 158 Etienne Massip
333 165 Etienne Massip
Use default administrator account to log in:
334
335 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
    * login: admin
336
    * password: admin
337 14 Jean-Philippe Lang
338 165 Etienne Massip
You can go to ??Administration?? menu and choose ??Settings?? to modify most of the application settings.
339
340 130 Etienne Massip
h2. Configuration
341 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
342 185 Etienne Massip
Redmine settings are defined in a file named @config/configuration.yml@.
343 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
344 185 Etienne Massip
If you need to override default application settings, simply copy @config/configuration.yml.example@ to @config/configuration.yml@ and edit the new file; the file is well commented by itself, so you should have a look at it.
345 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
346 185 Etienne Massip
These settings may be defined per Rails environment (@production@/@development@/@test@).
347 131 Etienne Massip
348
+Important+ : don't forget to restart the application after any change.
349
350 130 Etienne Massip
h3. Email / SMTP server settings
351
352 132 Etienne Massip
Email configuration is described in a [[EmailConfiguration|dedicated page]].
353 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
354
h3. SCM settings
355
356 133 Etienne Massip
This configuration section allows you to:
357 131 Etienne Massip
* override default commands names if the SCM binaries present in the @PATH@ variable doesn't use the standard name (Windows .bat/.cmd names won't work)
358
* specify the full path to the binary
359
360 133 Etienne Massip

h3. Attachment storage settings
371
372 133 Etienne Massip
You can set a path where Redmine attachments will be stored which is different from the default 'files' directory of your Redmine instance using the @attachments_storage_path@ setting.
373
374
Examples:
375
376
 attachments_storage_path: /var/redmine/files
377
378
 attachments_storage_path: D:/redmine/files

h2. Logging configuration
381
382 101 T. Hauptman
Redmine defaults to a log level of :info, writing to the @log@ subdirectory. Depending on site usage, this can be a lot of data so to avoid the contents of the logfile growing without bound, consider rotating them, either through a system utility like @logrotate@ or via the @config/additional_environment.rb@ file.
383 21 Jean-Philippe Lang
384
To use the latter, copy @config/additional_environment.rb.example@ to @config/additional_environment.rb@ and add the following lines. Note that the new logger defaults to a high log level and hence has to be explicitly set to @info@.
385 123 Jean-Philippe Lang
<pre><code class="ruby">
386 21 Jean-Philippe Lang
#Logger.new(PATH,NUM_FILES_TO_ROTATE,FILE_SIZE)
387 162 Jean-Philippe Lang
config.logger = Logger.new('/path/to/logfile.log', 2, 1000000)
388 11 Jean-Philippe Lang
config.logger.level = Logger::INFO

h2. Notes on Linux/Unix installation
400
401
Be sure to disable security hardenning tools during the installation process if you run into bizarre permission problems. These problems are mostly silent and can be caused by tools like extended ACLs, SELinux, or AppArmor. There tools are mostly used in big companies with a strict security policy, default Linux/Unix distributions settings shouldn't be a problem.

405 156 Etienne Massip
There is an prebuilt installer of Ruby MRI available from http://rubyinstaller.org.
406
After installing it, select _Start Command Prompt with Ruby_ in the start menu.

+Specifying the @RAILS_ENV@ environment variable:+
409 69 Giuliano Simoncelli
410 156 Etienne Massip
When running command as described in this guide, you have to set the @RAILS_ENV@ environment variable using a separate command.
411 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
412 156 Etienne Massip
I.e. commands with the following syntaxes:
413 69 Giuliano Simoncelli
414 156 Etienne Massip
<pre>RAILS_ENV=production <any commmand></pre>
415 69 Giuliano Simoncelli
416 156 Etienne Massip
<pre><any commmand> RAILS_ENV=production</pre>
417 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
418 156 Etienne Massip
have to be turned into 2 subsequent commands:
419 69 Giuliano Simoncelli
420 156 Etienne Massip
<pre>set RAILS_ENV=production
421
<any commmand></pre>
422
423
+MySQL gem installation issue:+
424
425
You may need to manually install the mysql gem using the following command:
426
427 69 Giuliano Simoncelli
<pre>
428
gem install mysql
429
</pre>
430 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
431 156 Etienne Massip
And in some case it is required to copy the _libmysql.dll_ file in your ruby/bin directory.
432
Not all libmysql.dll are ok this seem to works http://instantrails.rubyforge.org/svn/trunk/InstantRails-win/InstantRails/mysql/bin/libmySQL.dll.

*Important note for Win7 and later*
435 283 Mischa The Evil
On Win7 and later, @localhost@ is commented out in the hosts file[5] and IPV6 is the default[6]. As the mysql2 gem does no support IPV6 addresses[7], a connection can't be established and you get the error "@Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)@".
436 186 Jan Niggemann (redmine.org team member)
You can confirm this by pinging @localhost@, if ping targets "::1:" IPV6 is being used.
437
438
+Workaround:+
439
Replace @localhost@ with @127.0.0.1@ in database.yml.
