OLD Redmine Setup Notes

• As of writing this, redmine is avaialable for Debian 10, but not 11
• This site was used as the guide to install redmine: https://www.atlantic.net/dedicated-server-hosting/how-to-install-redmine-4-2-on-debian-10/
• After setting up redmine, we had to remove the default webpage from /etc/apache2/sites-available (link may not be specific, writing from memory). Until we did this, it was not loading the redmine.conf
• LDAP
  • When configuring LDAP, do not provide username and password
  • Select on the fly user creation
• Kanban Plugin(s)
  • Candidates: https://www.scrumexpert.com/tools/scrum-and-kanban-plugins-for-redmine/
  • Selected: https://github.com/akpaevj/dashboard
• Setting up Late Reminders
  • See Guide
  • See crontab for location of script. We set this up to run every day at 10am, 7 days out from when a task is due.
