Redmine/folders

Folders

Standard locations in Ubuntu:

• /etc/redmine/ -- contains the configurations for each Redmine site on the server
  • default/ -- configuration files for the "default" site
• /usr/share/redmine -- application folder: stuff that doesn't change; sample config files
• /var/cache/redmine/ - cache files
  • default/ -- cache files for the "default" site
• /var/lib/redmine/ -- data folder: space used by Redmine for storing non-database data
• /var/log/redmine/
  • default/ -- log files for the "default" site

Fixes

• If uploads aren't working, make sure the uploads folders are owned by the site's user.
  • My install repeatedly reverts ownership to www-data instead of the virtual domain that runs Redmine. Woozle (talk) 22:54, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
• If PDF generation isn't working, ensure that Redmine's cache folders are owned by the site's user/group:
  • If your instance is "default", then:

cd /var/cache/redmine
chown -R <user>:<group> default/
