Gforge for PostgreSQL Installation Guide (RH Linux 4.4 32 bits)

Preface:

As an excellent collaborative development software in the Open Source world, gforge provides a complete software development platform for open source software development, developers are encouraged to make full use of this open platform to develop richer Open Source Software for the Open Source world.

Gforge initially originated from the open-source sf.net -- SourceForge, and switched to commercial version development until cvs2.6, instead of open-source.
Then we have the branch gforge, which is mainly developed by SF. In fact, gforge was initially used In Debian.
The official server is also Debian, and there are other SF branches. Gforge is also used on the IBM open-source website, but it adds more plug-ins.

Gforge generates a branch that supports MySql in MySQL 4.6, but it has not released any available version for nine months. Therefore, this article uses gforge for PostgreSQL.

To install gforge, you must prepare the following:
OpenSSL
Apache
PostgreSQL
PHP
Bdb
SVN

The server version used is RedHat Enterprise 4.4 32 bits. The default web server and database server are not installed.

The tar package to be prepared is as follows:
Openssl-0.9.8e.tar.gz
Httpd-2.2.6.tar.gz
Postgresql-8.2.5.tar.gz
Php-5.2.4.tar.gz
Db-4.4.20.tar.gz
Subversion-1.2.1.tar.bz2
Gforge-4.5.16.tar.bz2
These packages can be found online.

 

Install the SDK in the following sequence:

$ Sys_dbhost = "localhost"
$ Sys_dbname = "gforge"
$ Sys_dbuser = "s"
$ Sys_dbpasswd = "s"
$ Sys_urlroot = '/var/www/gforge/www /';
$ Sys_themeroot = '/var/www/gforge/www/themes /';

(Replace gforge.teamlet.org with your own domain name)
$ Svndir_prefix = '/usr/local/bin ';
$ Sys_plugins_path = '/var/www/gforge/plugins /';

8. Prepare the database for gforge
# Vi/usr/local/pgsql/data/pg_assist.conf
Join
Host gforge 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 MD5

# Vi/usr/local/pgsql/data/PostgreSQL. conf
Join
Tcpip_socket = true

# Chown-r Postgres/var/www/gforge/www/DB
# Su-Postgres
$/Usr/local/pgsql/bin/Psql template1
Template1 = # create user gforge nocreateuser nocreatedb password 'gfpwd ';
Template1 = # create database gforge owner gforge encoding 'unicode ';
Template1 = #/Q

$/Usr/local/pgsql/bin/createlang plpgsql gforge
$ CD/var/www/gforge/www/DB
$/Usr/local/pgsql/bin/Psql gforge
Gforge = #/I gforge. SQL
Gforge = #/Q

(Copy/var/www/gforge/to/usr/local/Apache/htdocs)
# Cp-r/var/www/gforge/usr/local/Apache/htdocs
Then you can access it through a browser.

The following steps have not been tested.

========================================================== ================

9. Set Apache Virtual Server to/var/www/gforge/WWW
(Server name must be consistent with the domain of local. Inc in gforge to run)
An example of setting virtual server is as follows:

Listen 8080.
DocumentRoot "/var/www/gforge/www"
Forcetype application/X-httpd-PHP

Forcetype application/X-httpd-PHP

Options followsymlinks
AllowOverride none
Order allow, deny
Allow from all

Servername gforge.teamlet.org

If you use Webmin to set virtual host, you only need to modify the httpd. conf file and modify it according to the preceding example.
