Topic: Redmine / Change starting page

Hi Andre, I am glad you solved the issue and thanks for taking the time to explain how you did it. Have you considered posting your question and answer to answers.bitnami.org ? We want to move a lot of the BitNami support over there because it is much easier to search existing questions than in the forums, as well as voting up the most interesting/common ones (like this one :)

Topic: Cloud (Amazon AWS & BitNami Cloud Hosting) / Remove Bitnami Landing Page

You will need to access the AMI and edit the configuration files or rename the files, as instructed by Beltran

Topic: General / When is Bitnami Studio going to be available?

What exactly do you mean with minimal installs? Bitnami Cloud Hosting already allows you to launch 64bit images and select which apps go in there

Topic: WAMPStack / Cannot chmod anymore

@umlaut Not sure I follow. The control panel is for starting/stopping the servers, not sure how it will help with the permissions issues

Topic: General / Difficult to understand at first for installing and finding information

Just curious, how would you define BitNami in your own words? Want to understand so we can do a better job at explaining it

Topic: WordPress / Apache Security Recommandation

In general yes, but Wordpress requires that for updates to work

Topic: Redmine / Plugins & Permissions

Are you using a virtual appliance, cloud image or regular installer? where did you get the error: the application or the command line?

Topic: Redmine / Looking for Redmine Consultant

Yes we can. We will contact you via email shortly

Wow, thanks a lot for the detailed feedback and taking the time to write it. We will incorporate it into future releases.

Topic: BitNami en español / Peticion de Virtualizacion del Proyecto AGREGA

Hola John Felipe, actualmente no tenemos los recursos para poder afrontar un proyecto asi. En algun momento del futuro queremos abrir BitNami para que la gente pueda contribuir sus modulos, pero ahora mismo no es posible. Mucha suerte con tu proyecto y siento que ahora mismo no podamos ser de ayuda

Also, make sure you are using an EBS image, so the data will survive a reboot of the machine

Topic: Cloud (Amazon AWS & BitNami Cloud Hosting) / BitNami Cloud Hosting

Hi Kreig, thanks a lot for the feedback and support. We have put a lot of effort on our Cloud offering and we have a lot of things in store :)

Topic: General / new Kodingen

We are currently working with a limited set of beta testers. We will continue to expand that number over the next few months. We cannot offer you an exact date for the public beta though. Please sign up if you have not already done so, to get a spot when we expand the list of beta-testers.

Topic: Cloud (Amazon AWS & BitNami Cloud Hosting) / Support for Amazon's New Micro Instance

Yes, we plan on releasing EBS versions of the stacks soon.

Topic: Liferay / Can I use LifeRay native stack for live site ?

Take into account Java stacks like LifeRay and Alfresco are memory-intensive so make sure the VPS have enough allocated RAM. Also, you may be able to lower the price you pay Amazon with dedicated instances or, depending on the criticality of your app, use spot pricing: http://cloudexchange.org/ If your bid is, say, $0.05 then you have a big chance the instances are going to be up for months

Topic: Cloud (Amazon AWS & BitNami Cloud Hosting) / Production-quality LAMP stack for Rackspace CloudServer

Hi Hermann,

Based on your requirement for automatic updates (which we don’t provide), at this point the easiest way is to use the native stack provided by the vendor and install the rest yourself. Regarding a server-side traffic analysis tool, there is no need usually to install anything locally. You insert Javascript in your pages and that gets collected by Google Analytics. You can install your own server like Piwik (http://piwik.org/) but we recommend that is down in a different server.

Topic: Cloud (Amazon AWS & BitNami Cloud Hosting) / Amazon EBS instance

Hi Brian,

We have EBS instances working as part of BitNami Hosting, we will drop you an email to tell you about it. An alternative for now may be to start a Linux AMI and download and install a stack directly. We recommend the official Ubuntu EC2 images.

Best regards

Daniel

Topic: Cloud (Amazon AWS & BitNami Cloud Hosting) / GoGrid Licensing Question

Hi, license of BitNami is Apache 2.0, everything else is governed by their own license (SugarCRM is GPLv3 , OpenSUSE license, etc.). We will update GoGRID next weeks, thanks for pointing it out

Topic: Redmine / Can't login with IE8

Thanks for following up Don

Topic: BitNami en español / Nueva aplicacion LAMP Stack

Que aplicacion es? La configuracion depende de cada aplicacion en concreto. En general requiere crear una base de datos en MySQL (el que se incluye en la lampstack esta en /opt/lampstack-x.y.z/mysql) y cambiar la configuracion de apache (el que se incluye en la lampstack esta en /opt/lampstack-x.y.z/apache2). En cada uno de los directorios bajo apps/ puedes ver ejemplos de configuracion, etc. pero como te comento son especificos para aplicacion y seran diferentes para la tuya

Topic: Stacks suggestions / ProcessMaker Workflow & BPM

We create new stacks as time permits and we take into account the number of votes
received. You can vote at http://bitnami.org/product/processmaker

Projects backed by commercial companies are encouraged to sponsor
development of their stack :)

Also notice the last version we tested required virtual host configuration…

You may also want to edit httpd.conf and disable any modules that are not in use

Topic: Stacks suggestions / FUDforum

Hi Frank, we have emailed you with details but received no response.

Topic: RubyStack & JRubyStack / Problems installing native extensions

Hi Bob,

We bundle the official Ruby binaries on Windows for compatibility reasons (that is probably why you are seeing the same issue)

Topic: General / Is Bitnami Open Source

Hi Zupa,

We have collaborated in the past with other users to create stacks, mainly PHP (such as Enano and Coppermine) but not such a suite, though we actually have plans to release a similar development stack for the future. I will be contacting you separately for details on how you can help

Topic: Redmine / SVN integration in redmine

Hi Paul,

We do not have plans to include mod_perl on Bitnami (it is heavyweight, and would also mean shipping a Perl runtime). Your best bet is to get it working on system apache and use that instead of the Redmine Apache
