The text has been deployed in advance using yum. The method is as follows:

2. Ruby on Rails deployment

Mkdir/opt/source
CD/opt/source
Wget http://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.8/ruby-1.8.7.tar.gz
Tar zxvf ruby-1.8.7.tar.gz
CD ruby-1.8.7
./Configure
Make & make install
Cd ext/zlib
Ruby extconf. RB -- With-zlib-include =/usr/include -- With-zlib-Lib =/usr/lib
CD ../../
Make & make install
 
CD/opt/source
Wget http://production.cf.rubygems.org/rubygems/rubygems-1.3.6.tgz
Tar zxvf rubygems-1.3.6.tgz
CD rubygems-1.3.6
Ruby setup. Rb
 
Gem install rails-V = 2.3.5

 

3. Check the Ruby on Rails status
Ruby-V
Ruby 1.8.7 (patchlevel 0) [i686-linux]

Gem list
* ** Local gems ***

Actionmailer (2.3.5)
Actionpack (2.3.5)
Activerecord (2.3.5)
Activeresource (2.3.5)
Activesupport (2.3.5)
MySQL (2.8.1)
Rack (1.0.1)
Rails (2.3.5)
Rake (0.8.7)

4. Database settings (take MYSQL as an example)
Start MySQL database

/Etc/init. d/mysqld start
Create a database and Set permissions

Mysql-u root-P
Enter password:
 
Mysql> Create Database redmine Character Set utf8;
Mysql> grant all on redmine. * To 'redmine '@ 'localhost' identified by 'redmine ';
Mysql> flush privileges;

 

5. Prepare the redmine Environment and Database

CD/opt/source
Wget http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/69449/redmine-0.9.3.tar.gz
Tar zxvf redmine-0.9.3.tar.gz
Music redmine-0.9.3/opt/redmine
CD/opt/redmine/config
CP database. yml. Example database. yml
VI database. yml
Production:
Adapter: MySQL
Database: redmine
HOST: localhost
Username: redmine
Password: redmine
Encoding: utf8

 

Key steps:

Run the following command in the root directory of the program to create the database structure:

cd /opt/redmine/
RAILS_ENV=production rake config/initializers/session_store.rb
rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV="production"

Run the following command to import default configuration data to the database:

Rake redmine: load_default_data rails_env = "production" (if it was a previous database-this step can be omitted)

This step is optional, but it is strongly recommended
You can also enter your configuration parameters step by step from the beginning. This command imports default roles, trace tags, statuses, workflows, and enumeration values.

6. Run the webrick server to test the installation.

 
ruby script/server -e production

When webrick is started, use a browser to access http: // localhost: 3000/
You will see the welcome page of the system.
Log On with the default username and password:
* User name: Admin
* Password: Admin

 

 

 

Supplemental appendix to redmine

1. redmine backup method:
Redmine backups should include: * Data (saved in redmine database) * Attachments (saved in redmine installation directory
Files directory)

The following is a simple script program that can be backed up every day (assuming you use the MySQL database ):

cat >> /var/spool/cron/root << EOF
# Redmine Database
0 1 * * * /usr/bin/mysqldump -u redmine -p redmine redmine | gzip > /opt/backup/db/redmine_`date +%y_%m_%d`.gz
# Redmine Attachments
30 1 * * * rsync -a /opt/redmine/files /opt/backup/files
EOF

2. SMTP server configuration

In the config/environment. RB file, you can set the parameters of your SMTP server:

* Config. action_mailer.smtp_settings: SMTP server configuration
*
Config. action_mailer.m_m_deliveries: Set to false to disable email sending.

After modifying this file, restart the server.
