Job: Help to Install ChiliProject on OSX Server (Lion)

Added by Dan Cameron at 2011-12-13 07:53 pm

I'm running into problems getting my OSX server setup with ChiliProject so I can migrate from Redmine (on another server).

I'd like to pay someone to simply get the latest trunk of chiliproject running. I've already installed brew and rvm, the issue is getting the mysql gem installed.

Notes:
I'm okay with everything being removed (rvm, brew, mysql, etc.) and starting from a clean slate, this is a new system that has been designated just for this project (right now).
Here's the error I keep getting...

mini-lion:chiliproject sproutventure$ sudo env ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" gem install --no-rdoc --no-ri  mysql -- --with-mysql-config=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config

Like I said though, I'll pay to get this working; I'm at the point that I don't want to waste anymore time getting it setup.

I don't have the means to be paid "on my own", so I fear I can't provide you directly with a paid installation (I'd direct you to my employer, but I fear that'd be more hassle than necessary), and I don't have experience with OS X Server, but this error seems quite easy to fix.

2 things:

  • If you want to work on ruby 1.9.2, use the mysql2 gem, not the mysql one. The mysql gem isn't supported well on 1.9.2.
  • You will need the mysql development libraries, just brew install mysql. Even if you don't intend to use the brew-installed mysql (and it isn't started automatically by default, so no sweat here), it will provide the necessary header/library files the mysql2 gem install needs.

You're on the right path though, I don't think there's that much left to do :-)

Thanks for the help, I did get mysql2 installed and it seemed fine up until I tried to populate the db. Here's the latest error, which is strange since even installing the mysql gem I get the error.

I should mention that I'm trying to get Passenger to work too, this is the new error message after installing mysql2.

Error message:
no such file to load -- mysql (MissingSourceFile)
Exception class:
PhusionPassenger::UnknownError

RE: Job: Help to Install ChiliProject on OSX Server (Lion) - Added by Felix Schäfer at 2011-12-13 08:43 pm

You need to specify mysql2 as the adapter in the database.yml instead of just mysql.

Wonderful! That was it.

You have an amazon wishlist?

Great, and yeah, our docs seem to need some love :-/

Mmh, last updated long ago, so I'd say no, you can either just Donate to the project, or I'll send you my iTunes and paypal handles, I hope one works for you :-)
