Let's update both rake and rails: Start by creating the ~/.gemrc file with the following contents:
Line 45: Line 46:
lvillani@mire:~$ gem install --install-dir $HOME/.gem --no-ri --no-rdoc -y rake
lvillani@mire:~$ gem install --install-dir $HOME/.gem --no-ri --no-rdoc -y rails -v=2.1.2		 cat > .gemrc << EOF
gem: --no-ri --no-rdoc
gemhome: $HOME/.gem
gempath:
 - $HOME/.gem
 - /var/lib/gems/1.8

The stuff will be installed inside ~/.gem.

Now, in order to use the ''new'' rake and rails command we need to prepend ~/.gem/bin to the PATH. Assuming that you are using the bash shell, open ~/.bashrc (create it if it doesn't exist) and add:
 Now add the following to your ~/.bashrc:
Line 54: Line 57:
export RUBYLIB="$HOME/.gem/lib"
Line 57: Line 61:
We will also need to tell ruby where to find the ruby libraries we've just installed, this is done by exporting the GEM_HOME environment variable. Add the following to your ~/.bashrc:

{{{
export GEM_HOME="$HOME/.gem"
}}}

Now make sure that the new settings are loaded in your current shell:

Now install some default data in the db (you can skip this but it simplifies configuration):

=== Launching WEBRick ===
We must first launch WEBRick, which is a rails application container:

{{{
lvillani@mire:~/public_html/binaryhelix.org/default/redmine-0.8.6$ ruby script/server webrick -d -e production
=> Booting WEBrick...
=> Rails 2.1.2 application started on http://0.0.0.0:3000

[2009-11-06 11:37:49] INFO ruby 1.8.5 (2006-08-25) [i486-linux]
}}}

That is, it will sit on port 3000. Make sure to take an unused port, you can change it with the -p switch.

What is redmine?

Redmine is an open source, web-based project management and bug-tracking tool. It includes calendar and gantt charts to aid visual representation of projects and their deadlines. It supports multiple projects. Redmine is a FOSS solution which provides integrated project management features, issue tracking, and support for multiple version control options.

For more information: http://www.redmine.org

Installation

Foreword

In this walkthrough you will see several 'variables', you'll have to substitute them to suit your needs. You can safely "export" them in your shell environment if you wish.

In particular:

  • DBNAME: is the database name
    • this walkthrough assumes you will be using MySQL
  • DOCROOT: where Redmine will be unpacked
    • this walkthrough assumes that Redmine will be installed in: ~/public_html/binaryhelix.org/default

Retrieving Redmine

At the time of writing, the latest release of Redmine is 0.8.6. Redmine can be retrieved from: http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=1850 In particular we'll be using: http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/66633/redmine-0.8.6.tar.gz

So let's get it started: 

lvillani@mire:~$ cd public_html/binaryhelix.org/default
lvillani@mire:~/public_html/binaryhelix.org/default$ wget http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/66633/redmine-0.8.6.tar.gz
lvillani@mire:~/public_html/binaryhelix.org/default$ tar xf redmine-0.8.6.tar.gz
lvillani@mire:~/public_html/binaryhelix.org/default$ ls
redmine-0.8.6  redmine-0.8.6.tar.gz

Updating gems

Now we'll need to update some of the "gems" installed on HCoop servers. Please note that we'll be installing those gems inside your home directory thus wasting a little bit of space.

Start by creating the ~/.gemrc file with the following contents: 

cat > .gemrc << EOF
gem: --no-ri --no-rdoc
gemhome: $HOME/.gem
gempath:
 - $HOME/.gem
 - /var/lib/gems/1.8
EOF

Now add the following to your ~/.bashrc: 

export RUBYLIB="$HOME/.gem/lib"
export PATH="$HOME/.gem/bin:$PATH"

Make sure that the new settings are loaded in your current shell: 

lvillani@mire:~$ . ~/.bashrc

Now update rubygems: 

lvillani@mire:~$ wget http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/60718/rubygems-1.3.5.tgz
lvillani@mire:~$ tar xf rubygems-1.3.5.tgz
lvillani@mire:~$ cd rubygems-1.3.5
lvillani@mire:~/rubygems-1.3.5$ ruby setup.rb --prefix=$HOME/.gem

Let's update rake and install the required version of rails: 

lvillani@mire:~$ gem1.8 install rake
lvillani@mire:~$ gem1.8 install rails -v=2.1.2

Verify that you are actually using the latest rake: 

lvillani@mire:~$ rake -V
rake, version 0.8.7

Database

To do some initial setup database please follow instructions at: MemberManual/Databases#MySQL (RUN mysql-fixperms or schema creation will NOT work)

When you have created the database you are ready to configure redmine. The first thing we'll need to do is to tell redmine where to find our database. To do so we create a file called database.yml inside DOCROOT/redmine-0.8.6/config with the following contents where:

  • USERNAME is your UNIX username, the one appearing before the '@' in every shell prompt

  • DATABASE_PASSWORD is the password you set with dbtool mysql adduser (or dbtool mysql passwd, if you changed it later)

  • DBNAME is the database name. It is formed by your account name, an underscore and the actual database name. 

production:
  adapter: mysql
  database: DBNAME
  host: mysql
  username: USERNAME
  password: DATABASE_PASSWORD

Now we can create the database schema by issuing the following command from DOCROOT/redmine-0.8.6: 

lvillani@mire:~/public_html/binaryhelix.org/default/redmine-0.8.6$ RAILS_ENV=production rake db:migrate

Now install some default data in the db (you can skip this but it simplifies configuration): 

lvillani@mire:~/public_html/binaryhelix.org/default/redmine-0.8.6$ RAILS_ENV=production rake redmine:load_default_data

Exposing Redmine to the world

Launching WEBRick

We must first launch WEBRick, which is a rails application container: 

lvillani@mire:~/public_html/binaryhelix.org/default/redmine-0.8.6$ ruby script/server webrick -d -e production
=> Booting WEBrick...
=> Rails 2.1.2 application started on http://0.0.0.0:3000
[2009-11-06 11:37:49] INFO  WEBrick 1.3.1
[2009-11-06 11:37:49] INFO  ruby 1.8.5 (2006-08-25) [i486-linux]

That is, it will sit on port 3000. Make sure to take an unused port, you can change it with the -p switch.
