Hey Guys,

I’m kinda stuck in the middle of an upgrade and hope someone can help.

I installed the BitNami Redmine stack, created an admin account, logged in, then created 1 empty project. After that was running successfully (which was extremely easier with BitNami) I tried to upgrade the installation using the instructions on the redmine site http://www.redmine.org/wiki/redmine/RedmineUpgrade

I followed the “Upgrading from a downloaded release” instructions. All steps completed successfully, after adding a few directories to my PATH.

I can no longer connect to my redmine installation I get one of the following two errors after trying many things.

1. Proxy Error

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /.

Reason: Error reading from remote server

2. Service Temporarily Unavailable

The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.

This stack is running on Windows XP

Thanks for any help,
Wes

Hi wezyde,

Actually we are working to update the stack and it will be released very soon ;)

About your error, it seems that the Mongrel servers are not running. The BitNami Stack include the “scripts” directory into “C:\Program Files\BitNami Redmine Stack\redmine”. Did you delete this folder when you updated the application?

Into this folder you can see a ruby script called ‘mongrel_rails_envvars’ and other scripts. The better option is to keep this directory, but If you have deleted you can create the file:

ENV[‘PATH’] = ENV[‘PATH’] + ’;C:\Program Files\BitNami Redmine Stack\subversion\bin’
ENV[‘PATH’] = ENV[‘PATH’] + ’;C:\Program Files\BitNami Redmine Stack\imagemagick’
require ‘rubygems’
require ‘RMagick’

Then you should to go to the service control panel and start the MySQL server, Mongrels servers and Apache server in that order.

I hope it helps.

In addition to this, you can try to start mongrel server by hand to check if the update process is correct.

Let me a tip, if you want to set the path you can type:

cd C:\Program Files\BitNami Redmine Stack
call scripts\setenv.bat

Then, go to the redmine and try to start it.

cd redmine
ruby script/server -e production

You can see the redmine application at http://localhost:3000

That worked perfect!! Thanks so much.

I still had a copy of the scripts folder so I just restored it and now Redmine is back up and running.

I was planning to wait for the stack but I just wanted to be sure I could upgrade easily if no stack was available.

Hi,

Now Redmine-0.7.0_RC1 is available. This version includes a console which defines all environment variables to execute Ruby, MySQL, Subversion, ... easily.

Since this topic is already labeled Upgrade 0.6.4.-0 to 0.7.0-RC1...

Is it possible to upgrade using the new installer package. I currently have a project running well on BitNami version 0.6.4 with an upgraded Redmine package. If I run the new installer package will my project data be lost?

Not yet, but we have working on this for all stacks.
You can install the new Stack in other directory. Then, you should extract the data with “mysqldump” and then insert into the new database. The Stacks are independent and you can install more than one (and running at the same time if you change the ports during the installation). It is ideal to have a “developer” version to play and a “production” version.
