4.1. Step-by-step Install

4.1.1. Introduction

Bugzilla has been successfully installed under Solaris, Linux, - and Win32. Win32 is not yet officially supported, but many people - have got it working fine. - Please see +>Bugzilla has been successfully installed under many different + operating systems including almost all Unix clones and + Microsoft Windows. Many + operating systems have utilities that make installation easier or quirks + that make it harder. We have tried to collect that information in Section 4.3.1 - for further advice on getting Bugzilla to work on Microsoft - Windows.

4.1.2. Package List

Section 4.3, so be sure to check out that section before + you start your installation. +

If you are running the very most recent - version of Perl and MySQL (both the executables and development - libraries) on your system, you can skip these manual installation - steps for the Perl modules by using Bundle::Bugzilla; see +>Windows is one of those operating systems that has many quirks + and is not yet officially supported by the Bugzilla team. If you wish + to install Bugzilla on Windows, be sure to see Using Bundle::Bugzilla instead of manually installing Perl modulesSection 4.3.1.

The software packages necessary for the proper running of - Bugzilla (with download links) are: -

  1. MySQL database server - (3.23.41 or greater) -

  2. While installing Bugzilla, it is a good idea to ensure that there + is some kind of firewall between you and the rest of the Internet + as your machine may be insecure for periods during the install. Many + installation steps require an active Internet connection to complete, + but you must take care to ensure that at no point is your machine + vulnerable to an attack.

Perl - (5.6, 5.6.1 is recommended if you wish to - use Bundle::Bugzilla) -

  • This guide assumes that you already have your operating system + installed, network configured, and have administrative access to the + shell on the machine you are installing Bugzilla onto. It is possible to + install and run Bugzilla without administrative access, but you have to + either make sure all the required software is installed or get somebody + with administrative access to install it for you. +

    Visit the MySQL homepage at www.mysql.comhttp://www.mysql.com to grab and install the latest stable release of the server.

    If you install from something other than an RPM or Debian - package, you will need to add mysqld - to your init scripts so the server daemon will come back up whenever - your machine reboots.

    Change your init script to start - mysqld - with the ability to accept large packets. By default, - mysqld - only accepts packets up to 64K long. This limits the size of - attachments you may put on bugs.

    my.conf     file. There is also a parameter in Bugzilla + for setting the maximum allowable attachment size. + + You should set this value to be slightly larger than that parameter. +

    If you plan on running Bugzilla and MySQL on the same machine, - consider using the - Figure 4-1. Set Max Packet Size in MySQL

Although Bugzilla runs with perl 5.6, it's a good idea to be up to the very latest version if you can when running Bugzilla. As of this writing, that is Perl version 5.8.

    4.1.3. Perl Modules

    Perl modules can be found using + CPAN on Unix based systems or + PPM on Win32. The root servers + have a real tendency to bog down, so please use mirrors. +

    Good instuctions can be found for using each of these services on + their respective websites. The basics can be found in + Example 4-1 for CPAN and + Section 4.3.1.2 for PPM. +

    Example 4-1. Installing perl modules with CPAN

    The easy way: + 
    
bash# perl -MCPAN -e 'install "<modulename>"'
+
    +

    Or the hard way: + 
    
bash# tar xzvf <module>.tar.gz     
+bash# cd <module>                  
+bash# perl Makefile.PL
+bash# make
+bash# make test
+bash# make install
+
    +

    This assumes that you've already downloaded the + <module>.tar.gz to the current working + directory. +
    The process of untaring the module as defined in + will create the + <module> directory. +
    +

    You can skip the following Perl module installation steps by - installing +>Many people complain that Perl modules will not install for + them. Most times, the error messages complain that they are missing a + file in Bundle::Bugzilla - - from - CPAN, - which installs all required modules for you.

    Bundle::Bugzilla doesn't include GD, Chart::Base, or - MIME::Parser, which are not essential to a basic Bugzilla install. If - installing this bundle fails, you should install each module - individually to isolate the problem.

    4.1.5. Perl Modules

    - All Perl modules can be found on the - Comprehensive Perl - Archive Network (CPAN). The - CPAN servers have a real tendency to bog down, so please use mirrors. -

    Quality, general Perl module installation instructions can be - found on the CPAN website, but the easy thing to do is to just use the - CPAN shell which does all the hard work for you. - To use the CPAN shell to install a module: -

    bash# - perl -MCPAN -e 'install "<modulename>"' - -

    To do it the hard way: -

    Untar the module tarball -- it should create its own - directory

    CD to the directory just created, and enter the following - commands: -

    4.1.3.1. Bundle::Bugzilla

    If you are running at least perl 5.6.1, you can save yourself a lot + of time by using Bundle::Bugzilla. This bundle contains every module + required to get Bugzilla running. It does not include GD and friends, but + these are not required for a base install and can always be added later + if the need arises. +

    Assuming your perl was installed with CPAN (most unix installations + are), using Bundle::Bugzilla is really easy. Simply follow along with the + commands below. + 

    
bash# perl -MCPAN -eshell

    Many people complain that Perl modules will not install for - them. Most times, the error messages complain that they are missing a - file in - "@INC". - Virtually every time, this error is due to permissions being set too - restrictively for you to compile Perl modules or not having the - necessary Perl development libraries installed on your system. - Consult your local UNIX systems administrator for help solving these - permissions issues; if you - are - the local UNIX sysadmin, please consult the newsgroup/mailing list - for further assistance or hire someone to help you out.

    4.1.6. Setting Up the MySQL Database

    After you've gotten all the software installed and working you're ready to start preparing the database for its life as the back end to a high quality bug tracker.

    First, you'll want to fix MySQL permissions to allow access from - Bugzilla. For the purpose of this Installation section, the Bugzilla - username will be +>This first thing you'll want to do is make sure you've given the "bugs", and will have minimal permissions. +>"root" user a password as suggested in + Section 5.6.2. For clarity, these instructions will + assume that your MySQL user for Bugzilla will be "bugs_user", + the database will be called "bugs_db" and the password for + the "bugs_user" user is "bugs_password". You + should, of course, substitute the values you intend to use for your site.

    Begin by giving the MySQL root user a password. MySQL passwords are limited - to 16 characters. -

    Most people use "bugs" for both the user and + database name. +

    bash# - - mysql -u root mysql - -
    mysql> - - UPDATE user SET Password=PASSWORD('<new_password>') - WHERE user='root'; - -
    mysql> - - FLUSH PRIVILEGES; - -

    - - From this point on, if you need to access MySQL as the MySQL root user, - you will need to use - mysql -u root -p - - and enter <new_password>. Remember that MySQL user names have - nothing to do with Unix user names (login names).

    Next, we use an SQL command to create a "bugs""bugs_user" - user, and grant sufficient permissions for checksetup.pl, which we'll use later, to work its magic. This also restricts the "bugs""bugs_user" user to operations within a database called "bugs""bugs_db", and only allows the account to connect from . Modify it to reflect your setup if you will be connecting from another machine or as a different user.

    Remember to set <bugs_password> to some unique password. -
