Install extra packages for redmine:
apk add fcgi mysql mysql-dev rubygems fcgi-dev sqlite-dev
Install the following rubygems (gem install <gemname> --version <version>). Note: newer versions of the gems may work, but these have been confirmed working in Alpine 2.1.2:
gem install -V --no-rdoc --no-ri actionmailer --version 2.3.3 gem install -V --no-rdoc --no-ri activerecord --version 2.3.3 gem install -V --no-rdoc --no-ri activeresource --version 2.3.3 gem install -V --no-rdoc --no-ri edavis10-object_daddy --version 0.4.3 gem install -V --no-rdoc --no-ri fcgi --version 0.8.8 gem install -V --no-rdoc --no-ri mocha --version 0.9.10 gem install -V --no-rdoc --no-ri mysql --version 2.8.1 gem install -V --no-rdoc --no-ri rails --version 2.3.3 gem install -V --no-rdoc --no-ri shoulda --version 2.10.3 gem install -V --no-rdoc --no-ri sqlite3 --version 1.3.3
Configure MySql
/usr/bin/mysql_install_db --user=mysql /etc/init.d/mysql start && rc-update add mysql default /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'password'
Create the redmine database
mysql -u root -p
create database redmine character set utf8; grant all privileges on redmine.* to 'redmine'@'localhost' identified by 'Secur3P@ass'; flush privileges; exit
Create redmine folder
mkdir -p /usr/share/webapps/redmine
Download, unpack and move Redmine
cd /tmp/ wget http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/73140/redmine-1.0.3.tar.gz tar zxvf redmine-1.0.3.tar.gz mv redmine-1.0.3/* /usr/share/webapps/redmine/
Change permissions
chown -R lighttpd:lighttpd /usr/share/webapps/redmine chmod 0666 /usr/share/webapps/log/production.log mkdir /var/run/redmine chown lighttpd:lighttpd /var/run/redmine
Edit the database config file and add the mysql password at every occurrence of "password:"
cp /usr/share/webapps/redmine/config/database.yml.example /usr/share/webapps/redmine/config/database.yml nano /usr/share/webapps/redmine/config/database.yml
Some more steps
cd /usr/share/webapps/redmine mv public/dispatch.fcgi.example public/dispatch.fcgi
rake generate_session_store RAILS_ENV=production rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production rake redmine:load_default_data
Note: keep default language of en
Start the Redmine testing webserver
ruby /usr/share/webapps/redmine/script/server webrick -e production
Now you can browse to localhost:3000 an log using admin user and admin password.
Once Redmine is confirmed working, kill webrick.
Set up lighttpd by editing lighttpd.conf.
- Uncomment the following line:
"mod_alias",
- Add the following content to the end of the file:
$HTTP["url"] =~ "^/redmine/" {
alias.url = ("/redmine" => "/usr/share/webapps/redmine/public")
server.document-root = "/usr/share/webapps/redmine/public/"
server.error-handler-404 = "/redmine/dispatch.fcgi"
index-file.names = ("dispatch.fcgi")
# Change *-procs to 2 if you need to use Upload Progress or other tasks that
# *need* to execute a second request while the first is still pending.
fastcgi.server += (
".fcgi" => (
"localhost" => (
"min-procs" => 1,
"max-procs" => 2,
"check-local" => "disable",
"socket" => "/var/run/redmine/fcgi.socket",
"bin-path" => "/usr/bin/ruby /usr/share/webapps/redmine/public/dispatch.fcgi",
"bin-environment" => (
"RAILS_ENV" => "production"
)
)
)
)
}
Configure a relative URL by editing /usr/share/webapps/redmine/config/environment.rb: Add the line shown below, within the code block "Rails::Initializer.run do |config|"
config.action_controller.relative_url_root = '/redmine'
Restart lighttpd
/etc/init.d/lighttpd restart
