31 3 Jean-Philippe Lang
  production:
32
    adapter: mysql
33
    database: redmine
34
    host: localhost
35
    username: bduser
36
    password: bdpasswd
37
38
4. Create the database structure, by running the following command under the application root directory:
39
40 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
  rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV="production"
41
42
It will create tables and an administrator account.

5. Insert default configuration data in database, by running the following command:
45 1 Jean-Philippe Lang
46
  rake redmine:load_default_data RAILS_ENV="production"
47
48 4 Jean-Philippe Lang
This step is optional but *highly recommended*, as you can define your own configuration from scratch. It will load default roles, trackers, statuses, workflows and enumerations.
