12 * Ruby on Rails 2.3.5 (official downloadable Redmine releases are packaged with
13 the appropriate Rails version)
22 * MySQL (tested with MySQL 5)
23 * PostgreSQL (tested with PostgreSQL 8.1)
24 * SQLite (tested with SQLite 3)
27 * SCM binaries (e.g. svn), for repository browsing (must be available in PATH)
28 * RMagick (to enable Gantt export to png images)
29 * Ruby OpenID Library >= version 2 (to enable OpenID support)
33 1. Uncompress the program archive
35 2. Create an empty database: "redmine" for example
37 3. Configure the database parameters in config/database.yml
38 for the "production" environment (default database is MySQL)
40 4. Generate a session store secret
42 Redmine stores session data in cookies by default, which requires
43 a secret to be generated. Under the application main directory run:
44 rake generate_session_store
46 5. Create the database structure
48 Under the application main directory run:
49 rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV="production"
51 It will create all the tables and an administrator account.
53 6. Setting up permissions (Windows users have to skip this section)
55 The user who runs Redmine must have write permission on the following
56 subdirectories: files, log, tmp & public/plugin_assets (create the last
57 two if they are not yet present).
59 Assuming you run Redmine with a user named "redmine":
60 mkdir tmp public/plugin_assets
61 sudo chown -R redmine:redmine files log tmp public/plugin_assets
62 sudo chmod -R 755 files log tmp public/plugin_assets
64 7. Test the installation by running the WEBrick web server
66 Under the main application directory run:
67 ruby script/server -e production
69 Once WEBrick has started, point your browser to http://localhost:3000/
70 You should now see the application welcome page.
72 8. Use the default administrator account to log in:
76 Go to "Administration" to load the default configuration data (roles,
77 trackers, statuses, workflow) and to adjust the application settings
79 == SMTP server Configuration
81 Copy config/email.yml.example to config/email.yml and edit this file
82 to adjust your SMTP settings.
83 Do not forget to restart the application after any change to this file.
85 Please do not enter your SMTP settings in environment.rb.
