knowledgebase/linux/miscapplications/bugzilla 1 Bugzilla Install First grab bugzilla. cd /var/www/html wget the file using the url from http://www.bugzilla.org/download/#stable tar xzf "that file" mv "that directory" bugzilla cd bugzilla Run: ./checksetup.pl That will tell you a few things you need to install and a few optional things. Typically you can just install the things you need and skip the optional bits. That will involve installing CPAN modules. e.g. /usr/bin/perl -MCPAN -e 'install "MIME::Parser"' Create a mysql user per http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/2.22/html/configuration.html#install-setupdatabase-adduser. You may need to first startup mysql (/etc/init.d/mysqld start); set it to run on boot up (chkconfig --level 35 mysqld on) and set a root mysql user password (mysqladmin password somepwhere). Re-run ./checksetup.pl That should create a localconfig file. Edit that file to set the db_pass to the password you set when creating the mysql user. Re-run ./checksetup.pl. That should create the database tables and users you need. And setup an admin password for the install. Add something like this to your apache config: {code} <Directory /var/www/html/bugzilla> AddHandler cgi-script .cgi Options +Indexes +ExecCGI DirectoryIndex index.cgi AllowOverride Limit </Directory> {code} Then browse to http:\//yourip/bugzilla See also http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/2.22/html/configuration.html Or if you get stuck just pop in a support ticket and one of the RimuHosting sysadmins can get this going for you. 2007-04-24 20:18:49.0 2007-04-24 20:15:03.0
