DISCLAIMER
==========
This is not very well packaged code. It's not packaged at all. Don't
come here expecting something you plop in a directory, twiddle a few
things, and you're off and using it. Work has to be done to get
there. We'd like to get there, but it wasn't clear when that would
be, and so we decided to let people see it first.
============
INSTALLATION
============
(This section stolen heavily from the Bonsai INSTALL document. It's
also probably incomplete. "We're accepting patches", especially to
this document!)
First, you need some other things:
1) MySQL database server.
2) Tcl 7.6
3) TclX 7.6
4) mysqltcl program (hmm.. This was tricky.. Read on)
5) Some kind of HTTP server so you could use CGI scripts
1.1 Getting and setting up MySQL database
Visit MySQL homepage at http://www.tcx.se and grab the latest
stable binary release of the server. Sure, you can get sources and
compile them yourself, but binaries are the easiest and the fastest
way to get it up and running. Follow instructions found in
manual. There is a section about installing binary-only
distributions.
You should create database "bugs". It may be a good idea to make it
writable by all users on your machine and change access level
later. This would save you a lot of time trying to guess whether it's
permissions or a mistake in the script that make things fail.
1.2-3 Getting and building Tcl & TclX 7.6
Tcl homepage is at http://www.scriptics.com. You may get sources
for UNIX from ftp://ftp.scriptics.com/pub/tcl/tcl7_6/tcl7.6p2.tar.gz.
TclX is an extension for Tcl that adds a lot of useful functions that
are heavily used in the Bugzilla tool.
TclX page is http://www.neosoft.com/tclx. Download sources from
ftp://ftp.neosoft.com/pub/tcl/TclX/tclX7.6.0.tar.gz. Watch out for the
case of the letters in URL. These guys are going to bring some fun
into your life by spelling their program name in various ways.
Now you've probably got both Tcl and TclX 7.6. You may try to use
version 8.X but I'm not sure about results. Unfortunately I'm not an
expert in "Tcl&Co.".
Build and install Tcl first. Then build and install TclX. This
should go without serious problems
1.4 mysqltcl - the tricky part
Grab msqltcl 1.50 (yes, "msqltcl" without 'y'. That's not a typo) from
MySQL site's contributed software area (http://www.tcx.se/Contrib/) or
from mSQL site (www.hughes.com.au). I've used version 1.50 and it
works for me, though you may try more recent version at your own
risk. You're risking anyway.
Then grab mysqltcl.c-patch from MySQL's contrib area and apply this
patch to msqltcl.c file from msqltcl-1.50 distribution.
Try to make msqltcl binary which is in fact mYsqltcl already. Very
likely that you will not be able to compile it without modifications.
You can use the patch in APPENDIX 1 to see what changes I had to make
to compile mysqltcl. Your mileage may vary.
1.5 HTTP server
You have a freedom of choice here - Apache, Netscape or any other
server on UNIX would do. The only thing - to make configuration easier
you'd better run HTTP daemon on the same machine that you run MySQL
server on. Make sure that you can access 'bugs' database with user
id you're running the daemon with.
2. TWEAKING THE TOOLS
Now you should have all necessary tools to be able to run Bugzilla
and see why the wouldn't work for you right now.
First of all you have to change "#!/usr/bonsaitools" to wherever
you've installed your binaries in all executable scripts in Bugzilla
directories.
3. Setting up database
First, run mysql, and tell it "create database bugs;".
Now, you should be run all six scripts named make*.sh. This creates the
database tables and populates them a teeny bit.
4. Setting the parameters
At this point, you ought to be able to go and browse some pages. But you'd
like to customize some things.
Create yourself an account. (Try to enter a new bug, and it will
prompt you for your login. Give it your email address, and have it
mail you your password.) Go visit the query page; that ought to force
the creation of the "params" file in your installation dir. Edit the
params file, and change the line that says "set param(maintainer)" to
have your email address as the maintainer. Go visit the query page
again; there should now be a link at the bottom that invites you to
edit the parameters. (If you have cookies turned off, you'll have to
go to editparams.cgi manually.)
Tweak the parameters to taste. Be careful.
5. Set up the whining cron job.
It's a good idea to set up a daily cronjob that does
cd ; ./whineatnews.tcl
This causes email that gets sent to anyone who has a NEW bug that
hasn't been touched for several days. For more info, see the
whinedays and whinemail parameters.
