Redmine 2.x installation

Installing Redmine 2.x does not install all the needed dependencies.

To fix the multiple errors on install I had to manually:

sudo apt-get install graphicsmagick-libmagick-dev-compat

sudo apt-get install libmagickwand-dev (This package replaces graphicsmagick-libmagick-dev-compat I am unsure if graphicsmagick-libmagick-dev-compat is required)

sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev

sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-passenger

a2enmod rewrite passenger (I believe rewrite may of already been loaded)

gem install rails (I had an error about rails not be installed when installing Redmine 2.x)

However after installing rails I still get the last error:

rake aborted! Could not find gem 'rails (= 3.2.8)' in any of the gem sources listed in your Gemfile. /home/modularg/domains/development.modulargaming.com/public_html/public/config/boot.rb:6 /home/modularg/domains/development.modulargaming.com/public_html/public/config/application.rb:1 /home/modularg/domains/development.modulargaming.com/public_html/public/Rakefile:5 (See full trace by running task with --trace)

When I tried installing Redmine 1.4.4 I had an similar error with bundler:

Now installing redmine version 1.4.4 ..

Session store failed :

Redmine requires Bundler 1.0.21 (you're using 1.0.15).
Please install a newer version with `gem install bundler`.

It doesn't seem to be seeing the gems I install.

Status: 
Closed (fixed)

Also Virtualmin tries to install Redmine 2.1.2 and 1.4.4 could that be updated to the latest version 2.1.4 and 1.4.5

I tried to install Ruby on Rails and get the following error:

Now installing Ruby on Rails version 3.2.9 ..

Rails setup failed :

Invalid application name rails, constant Rails is already in use. Please choose another application name.

Sorry, I missed this ticket.

Right now we really can't recommend using Redmine in Virtualmin, as the list of dependencies is huge and almost impossible to satisfy with the versions of Ruby that come with most distributions. We are likely going to remove it from the list of supported script installers.

No problem. That is understandable.

I'll most probably use github.com instead of Redmine as it has all the required features.

Sounds like a good idea. For the next Virtualmin release, we will likely remove redmine 2.x support (until linux distributions catch up)
