h2. Redmine Version
63
64
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 3 - Database connection configuration
132 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
133 165 Etienne Massip
Copy @config/database.yml.example@ to @config/database.yml@ and edit this file in order to configure your database settings for "production" environment.
134
135 264 Go MAEDA
Example for a MySQL database (default port):
136 88 Sean Farrell
137 209 Etienne Massip
<pre><code class="yml">
138 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
production:
139
  adapter: mysql2
140
  database: redmine
141
  host: localhost
142
  username: redmine
143
  password: my_password
144
</code></pre>
145 209 Etienne Massip
146 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
If your server is not running on the standard port (3306), use this configuration instead:
147
148
<pre><code class="yml">
149
production:
150 264 Go MAEDA
  adapter: mysql2
151 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
  database: redmine
152
  host: localhost
153
  port: 3307

h3. Step 4 - Dependencies installation
181
182
Redmine uses "Bundler":http://gembundler.com/ to manage gems dependencies.
183
184
You need to install Bundler first:
185
186
  gem install bundler
187
188
Then you can install all the gems required by Redmine using the following command:
189
190
  bundle install --without development test
191
192
h4. Optional dependencies
193
194
h5. RMagick (allows the use of ImageMagick to manipulate images for PDF and PNG export)
195
196
If ImageMagick is not installed on your system, you should skip the installation of the rmagick gem using:
197
198
 @bundle install --without development test rmagick@
199
200
201
If you have trouble installing @rmagick@ on Windows, refer to [[HowTo_install_rmagick_gem_on_Windows|this HowTo]].
202
203
h5. Database adapters
204
205 214 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).
206
207
Don't forget to re-run @bundle install --without development test ...@ after adding or removing adapters in the @config/database.yml@ file!
208 202 Jean-Philippe Lang
209
h4. Additional dependencies (@Gemfile.local@)
210
211
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@.
212
213
Example:
214
<pre>
215
# Gemfile.local
216
gem 'puma'
217 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
</pre>
218
219 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 5 - Session store secret generation
220 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
221 165 Etienne Massip
This step generates a random key used by Rails to encode cookies storing session data thus preventing their tampering.
222 151 Jean-Philippe Lang
Generating a new secret token invalidates all existing sessions after restart.
223 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
224 151 Jean-Philippe Lang
<pre>
225 234 Go MAEDA
bundle exec rake generate_secret_token
226 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
</pre>
227 90 Jiongliang Zhang
228 243 Toshi MARUYAMA
Alternatively, you can store this secret in config/secrets.yml:
229
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/upgrading_ruby_on_rails.html#config-secrets-yml
230
231 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 6 - Database schema objects creation
232 90 Jiongliang Zhang
233 165 Etienne Massip
Create the database structure, by running the following command under the application root directory:
234
235 234 Go MAEDA
  RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake db:migrate
236 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
237 184 Etienne Massip
Windows syntax:
238 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
239 184 Etienne Massip
 set RAILS_ENV=production
240 234 Go MAEDA
bundle exec rake db:migrate
241 184 Etienne Massip
242
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@.
243
244
+Ubuntu troubleshooting:+
245 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
246 165 Etienne Massip
If you get this error with Ubuntu:
247 90 Jiongliang Zhang
<pre>
248 114 Etienne Massip
Rake aborted!
249 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
no such file to load -- net/https
250
</pre>
251
252 165 Etienne Massip
Then you need to install @libopenssl-ruby1.8@ just like this: @apt-get install libopenssl-ruby1.8@.
253 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
254 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 7 - Database default data set
255 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
256 165 Etienne Massip
Insert default configuration data in database, by running the following command:
257
258 234 Go MAEDA
  RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake redmine:load_default_data
259 62 Vladimir L
260 171 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.
261
262
E.g.:
263
264
Unices:
265
266 234 Go MAEDA
  RAILS_ENV=production REDMINE_LANG=fr bundle exec rake redmine:load_default_data
267 171 Etienne Massip
268
Windows:
269
<pre>
270
set RAILS_ENV=production
271
set REDMINE_LANG=fr
272 234 Go MAEDA
bundle exec rake redmine:load_default_data
273 171 Etienne Massip
</pre>
274 32 Jean-Philippe Lang
275 167 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 8 - File system permissions
276 32 Jean-Philippe Lang
277 165 Etienne Massip
NB: _Windows users can skip this section._
278 14 Jean-Philippe Lang
279 165 Etienne Massip
The user account running the application must have write permission on the following subdirectories:
280 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
281 165 Etienne Massip
# @files@ (storage of attachments)
282
# @log@ (application log file @production.log@)
283 167 Etienne Massip
# @tmp@ and @tmp/pdf@ (create these ones if not present, used to generate PDF documents among other things)
284 220 Jean-Baptiste Barth
# @public/plugin_assets@ (assets of plugins)
285 221 Jean-Baptiste Barth
286 167 Etienne Massip
E.g., assuming you run the application with a redmine user account:
287 165 Etienne Massip
288 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
<pre>
289 219 Jean-Baptiste Barth
mkdir -p tmp tmp/pdf public/plugin_assets
290 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
sudo chown -R redmine:redmine files log tmp public/plugin_assets
291
sudo chmod -R 755 files log tmp public/plugin_assets
292
</pre>
293
294 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 9 - Test the installation
295 151 Jean-Philippe Lang
296 244 Jan Niggemann (redmine.org team member)
Test the installation by running WEBrick web server:
297
298
<pre>
299
bundle exec rails server webrick -e production
300
</pre>
301
302 151 Jean-Philippe Lang
Once WEBrick has started, point your browser to http://localhost:3000/. You should now see the application welcome page.
303
304 165 Etienne Massip
> Note: Webrick is *not* suitable for production use, please only use webrick for testing that the installation up to this point is functional. Use one of the many other guides in this wiki to setup redmine to use either Passenger (aka @mod_rails@), FCGI or a Rack server (Unicorn, Thin, Puma, hellip;) to serve up your redmine.
305 14 Jean-Philippe Lang
306 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 10 - Logging into the application
307 158 Etienne Massip
308 165 Etienne Massip
Use default administrator account to log in:
309
310 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
    * login: admin
311
    * password: admin
312 14 Jean-Philippe Lang
313 165 Etienne Massip
You can go to ??Administration?? menu and choose ??Settings?? to modify most of the application settings.
314
315 130 Etienne Massip
h2. Configuration
316 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
317 185 Etienne Massip
Redmine settings are defined in a file named @config/configuration.yml@.
318 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
319 185 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.
320 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
321 185 Etienne Massip
These settings may be defined per Rails environment (@production@/@development@/@test@).
322 131 Etienne Massip
323
+Important+ : don't forget to restart the application after any change.
324
325 130 Etienne Massip
h3. Email / SMTP server settings
326
327 132 Etienne Massip
Email configuration is described in a [[EmailConfiguration|dedicated page]].
328 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
329
h3. SCM settings
330
331 133 Etienne Massip
This configuration section allows you to:
332 131 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)
333
* specify the full path to the binary
334
335 133 Etienne Massip
Examples (with Subversion):
336 131 Etienne Massip
337 133 Etienne Massip
Command name override:
338 131 Etienne Massip
339
 scm_subversion_command: "svn_replacement.exe"
340
341 133 Etienne Massip
Absolute path:
342 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
343
 scm_subversion_command: "C:\Program Files\Subversion\bin\svn.exe"
344
345
h3. Attachment storage settings
346
347 133 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.
348
349
Examples:
350
351
 attachments_storage_path: /var/redmine/files
352
353
 attachments_storage_path: D:/redmine/files
354 130 Etienne Massip
355
h2. Logging configuration
356
357 101 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.
358 21 Jean-Philippe Lang
359
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@.
360 123 Jean-Philippe Lang
<pre><code class="ruby">
361 21 Jean-Philippe Lang
#Logger.new(PATH,NUM_FILES_TO_ROTATE,FILE_SIZE)
362 162 Jean-Philippe Lang
config.logger = Logger.new('/path/to/logfile.log', 2, 1000000)
363 11 Jean-Philippe Lang
config.logger.level = Logger::INFO
364
</code></pre>
365
366
h2. Backups
367
368
Redmine backups should include:
369
* data (stored in your redmine database)
370
* attachments (stored in the @files@ directory of your Redmine install)
371
372
Here is a simple shell script that can be used for daily backups (assuming you're using a mysql database):
373
374
<pre>
375
# Database
376 55 Lukasz Slonina
/usr/bin/mysqldump -u <username> -p<password> <redmine_database> | gzip > /path/to/backup/db/redmine_`date +%y_%m_%d`.gz
377 11 Jean-Philippe Lang
378
# Attachments
379 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
rsync -a /path/to/redmine/files /path/to/backup/files
380
</pre>
381 69 Giuliano Simoncelli
382 216 Jean-Baptiste Barth
h2. Notes on Linux/Unix installation
383
384
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.

And in some case it is required to copy the _libmysql.dll_ file in your ruby/bin directory.
415
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*
418
On Win7 and later, @localhost@ is commented out in the hosts file[1] and IPV6 is the default[2]. As the mysql2 gem does no support IPV6 addresses[3], a connection can't be established and you get the error "@Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)@".
419
You can confirm this by pinging @localhost@, if ping targets "::1:" IPV6 is being used.
420
421
+Workaround:+
422
Replace @localhost@ with @127.0.0.1@ in database.yml.
