This howto is similar to the [[HowTo Install Redmine on Debian with Ruby-on-Rails and Apache2-Passenger]], but a little shorter and uses postgresql instead of mysql as the database server.
4
It should be noted that redmine and all it's dependencies are available as packages in debians repo's, so there is no need to download redmine from svn as we will do in this howto.
5
6
First we become root and install some needed packages:
7
<pre>
8
su
9
apt-get install postgresql-8.4 apache2 subversion rake rubygems libopenssl-ruby libpgsql-ruby libapache2-mod-passenger
10
sudo gem install -v=2.3.5 rails
11
sudo gem install -v=1.0.1 rack 
12
</pre>
13
Before configuring redmine we need to create a user and a database in postresql. Be sure to replace <password> with your password.
14
<pre>
15
su postgres
16
psql
17
postgres=# CREATE ROLE redmine LOGIN ENCRYPTED PASSWORD '<password>' NOINHERIT VALID UNTIL 'infinity';
18
postgres=# CREATE DATABASE redmine WITH ENCODING='UTF8' OWNER=redmine;
19
</pre>
20
Now, let's download redmine and configure it
21
<pre>
22
cd tmp
23
svn co http://redmine.rubyforge.org/svn/branches/1.0-stable redmine-1.0
24
mv redmine-1.0/ /var/lib/redmine
25
cd /var/lib/redmine
26
</pre>
27
First some database stuff. Replace <password> with your password.
28
<pre>
29
echo "production:
30
 adapter: postgresql
31
 database: redmine
32
 host: localhost
33
 username: redmine
34
 password: <password>
35
 encoding: utf8
36
 schema_search_path: public" > config/database.yml
37
38
RAILS_ENV=production rake config/initializers/session_store.rb
39
rake generate_session_store
40
RAILS_ENV=production rake db:migrate
41
RAILS_ENV=production rake redmine:load_default_data 
42
</pre>
43
Finally, we setup Apache. A symbolic link to the www dir and ownership given to www-data.
44
<pre>
45
ln -s /var/lib/redmine/public /var/www/redmine
46
chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/redmine
47
</pre>
48
We enable the site and restart apache.
49
<pre>
50
echo "RailsBaseURI /redmine" > /etc/apache2/sites-available/redmine
51
a2ensite redmine
52
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
53
</pre>
54
55
That's it.
