Redmine + Windows 2012 R2 + IIS 8.5

Added by Alan MacK almost 10 years ago

Howdy all,

Just wanting to know if anyone can point me in the direction to a great method to install Redmine onto a Windows 2012 R2 server running IIS 8.5?

I had a quick google and see there are so many ways - I hope someone can say this is the best method/point me in the right direction.

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

I am trying to install Redmine using Windows Server 2012r2. I have managed to install ROR and tested the Redmine on the Webrick server but I couldnt use fcgi to run Redmine on IIS. I was wondering if anyone has installed the redmine on iis 8.5?

Thanks.

Hi,

I am running Redmine 2.6.2 with Windows 2012 R2, IIS 8.5 and PostgreSQL (SQLite before) for more than 6 months in production.

To run it, I am using Helicon Zoo (http://www.helicontech.com/zoo/)

It works really well !

Hi,

Thanks for reply. I used Helicon before, but it installed an old version of redmine(2.3) and used SQLite. Is there any way that using helicon and upgrade the redmine? I want to use MySQL and redmine 2.6 or 3.0.

thanks

Yes, redmine version installed by Helicon is old, but just install this old version following the Helicon guides, and then simply upgrade your redmine installation (http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/RedmineUpgrade) to a more recent version. I haven't tested 3.0 has many plugins are not compatible yet.
You can also update Ruby to a more recent version (I am using 2.0.0-p598)

Thanks,

I have installed the redmine using Helicon but it doesnt detect the repository,(I am trying to use Mercurial). I have given the redmine absolute path for the mercurial repositories but still it doesnt recognize it. How can I fix this? Thanks

Sorry, I'm not very familiar with repositories and Mercurial.

We just have Git setup on that server (to download plugins from GitHub), and it is detected by Redmine, but we don't use it with Redmine.

Thanks for replying.

I have solved the problem with my Mercurial Repositories and now it works fine. also for Redmine installation I used Helicontech to install version 2.6 (version 3.0 can be installed too)rather than upgrading the version 2.3.

Thanks again.
