h2. Redmine Version
54
55
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.

136 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
137 165 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.
138
139 264 Go MAEDA
Example for a MySQL database (default port):
140 88 Sean Farrell
141 209 Etienne Massip
<pre><code class="yml">

192 202 Jean-Philippe Lang
h3. Step 4 - Dependencies installation
193
194
Redmine uses "Bundler":http://gembundler.com/ to manage gems dependencies.
195
196 310 Go MAEDA
You need to install Bundler first if you use Ruby 2.5 or earlier:
197 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
198 323 Holger Just
<pre>
199
gem install bundler
200
</pre>
201 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
202
Then you can install all the gems required by Redmine using the following command:
203
204 323 Holger Just
<pre>
205
bundle config set --local without 'development test' 
206
bundle install
207
</pre>
208 202 Jean-Philippe Lang
209
h4. Optional dependencies
210
211 310 Go MAEDA
h5. RMagick
212
213 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.
214
215
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:
216
217 323 Holger Just
<pre>
218
bundle config set --local without 'development test rmagick' 
219
bundle install
220
</pre>
221 202 Jean-Philippe Lang
222
If you have trouble installing @rmagick@ on Windows, refer to [[HowTo_install_rmagick_gem_on_Windows|this HowTo]].
223
224
h5. Database adapters
225
226 214 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).
227
228
Don't forget to re-run @bundle install --without development test ...@ after adding or removing adapters in the @config/database.yml@ file!
229 202 Jean-Philippe Lang
230
h4. Additional dependencies (@Gemfile.local@)
231
232
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@.
233
234
Example:
235
<pre>
236
# Gemfile.local
237
gem 'puma'
238 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
</pre>
239
240 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 5 - Session store secret generation
241 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
242 165 Etienne Massip
This step generates a random key used by Rails to encode cookies storing session data thus preventing their tampering.
243 151 Jean-Philippe Lang
Generating a new secret token invalidates all existing sessions after restart.
244 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
245 151 Jean-Philippe Lang
<pre>
246 234 Go MAEDA
bundle exec rake generate_secret_token
247 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
</pre>
248 90 Jiongliang Zhang
249 243 Toshi MARUYAMA
Alternatively, you can store this secret in config/secrets.yml:
250
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/upgrading_ruby_on_rails.html#config-secrets-yml
251
252 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 6 - Database schema objects creation
253 90 Jiongliang Zhang
254 165 Etienne Massip
Create the database structure, by running the following command under the application root directory:
255
256 271 Toshi MARUYAMA
<pre>
257 278 Toshi MARUYAMA
RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake db:migrate
258 271 Toshi MARUYAMA
</pre>
259
260
*Windows syntax:*
261
262
<pre>
263
set RAILS_ENV=production
264 184 Etienne Massip
bundle exec rake db:migrate
265 271 Toshi MARUYAMA
</pre>
266 184 Etienne Massip
267
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@.
268
269 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 7 - Database default data set
270 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
271 165 Etienne Massip
Insert default configuration data in database, by running the following command:
272
273 234 Go MAEDA
  RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake redmine:load_default_data
274 62 Vladimir L
275 171 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.
276
277
E.g.:
278
279
Unices:
280
281 234 Go MAEDA
  RAILS_ENV=production REDMINE_LANG=fr bundle exec rake redmine:load_default_data
282 171 Etienne Massip
283
Windows:
284
<pre>
285
set RAILS_ENV=production
286
set REDMINE_LANG=fr
287 234 Go MAEDA
bundle exec rake redmine:load_default_data
288 171 Etienne Massip
</pre>
289 32 Jean-Philippe Lang
290 167 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 8 - File system permissions
291 32 Jean-Philippe Lang
292 165 Etienne Massip
NB: _Windows users can skip this section._
293 14 Jean-Philippe Lang
294 165 Etienne Massip
The user account running the application must have write permission on the following subdirectories:
295 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
296 165 Etienne Massip
# @files@ (storage of attachments)
297
# @log@ (application log file @production.log@)
298 167 Etienne Massip
# @tmp@ and @tmp/pdf@ (create these ones if not present, used to generate PDF documents among other things)
299 220 Jean-Baptiste Barth
# @public/plugin_assets@ (assets of plugins)
300 221 Jean-Baptiste Barth
301 167 Etienne Massip
E.g., assuming you run the application with a redmine user account:
302 165 Etienne Massip
303 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
<pre>
304 219 Jean-Baptiste Barth
mkdir -p tmp tmp/pdf public/plugin_assets
305 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
sudo chown -R redmine:redmine files log tmp public/plugin_assets
306
sudo chmod -R 755 files log tmp public/plugin_assets
307
</pre>
308
309 284 Toshi MARUYAMA
Note: If you have files in these directories (e.g. restore files from backup), make sure these files are not executable.
310
311
<pre>
312
sudo find files log tmp public/plugin_assets -type f -exec chmod -x {} +
313
</pre>
314
315 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 9 - Test the installation
316 151 Jean-Philippe Lang
317 244 Jan Niggemann (redmine.org team member)
Test the installation by running WEBrick web server:
318
319
<pre>
320
bundle exec rails server webrick -e production
321
</pre>
322
323 151 Jean-Philippe Lang
Once WEBrick has started, point your browser to http://localhost:3000/. You should now see the application welcome page.
324
325 165 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.
326 14 Jean-Philippe Lang
327 165 Etienne Massip
h3. Step 10 - Logging into the application
328 158 Etienne Massip
329 165 Etienne Massip
Use default administrator account to log in:
330
331 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
    * login: admin
332
    * password: admin
333 14 Jean-Philippe Lang
334 165 Etienne Massip
You can go to ??Administration?? menu and choose ??Settings?? to modify most of the application settings.
335
336 130 Etienne Massip
h2. Configuration
337 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
338 185 Etienne Massip
Redmine settings are defined in a file named @config/configuration.yml@.
339 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
340 185 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.
341 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
342 185 Etienne Massip
These settings may be defined per Rails environment (@production@/@development@/@test@).
343 131 Etienne Massip
344
+Important+ : don't forget to restart the application after any change.
345
346 130 Etienne Massip
h3. Email / SMTP server settings
347
348 132 Etienne Massip
Email configuration is described in a [[EmailConfiguration|dedicated page]].
349 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
350
h3. SCM settings
351
352 133 Etienne Massip
This configuration section allows you to:
353 131 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)
354
* specify the full path to the binary
355
356 133 Etienne Massip
Examples (with Subversion):
357 131 Etienne Massip
358 133 Etienne Massip
Command name override:
359 131 Etienne Massip
360
 scm_subversion_command: "svn_replacement.exe"
361
362 133 Etienne Massip
Absolute path:
363 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
364
 scm_subversion_command: "C:\Program Files\Subversion\bin\svn.exe"
365
366
h3. Attachment storage settings
367
368 133 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.
369
370
Examples:
371
372
 attachments_storage_path: /var/redmine/files
373
374
 attachments_storage_path: D:/redmine/files
375 130 Etienne Massip
376
h2. Logging configuration
377
378 101 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.
379 21 Jean-Philippe Lang
380
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@.
381 123 Jean-Philippe Lang
<pre><code class="ruby">
382 21 Jean-Philippe Lang
#Logger.new(PATH,NUM_FILES_TO_ROTATE,FILE_SIZE)
383 162 Jean-Philippe Lang
config.logger = Logger.new('/path/to/logfile.log', 2, 1000000)
384 11 Jean-Philippe Lang
config.logger.level = Logger::INFO
385
</code></pre>

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.
428
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*
431 283 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)@".
432 186 Jan Niggemann (redmine.org team member)
You can confirm this by pinging @localhost@, if ping targets "::1:" IPV6 is being used.
433
434
+Workaround:+
435
Replace @localhost@ with @127.0.0.1@ in database.yml.
