Hi, On a modern Linux system, installation via the Python packages is only a few commands (system package installation to get required system dependencies, a command to get Review Board and its Python dependencies, and a command to create your Review Board site installation and prepare it for Apache to serve).
If on RHEL or CentOS, it's even simpler. The "ReviewBoard" package has everything you need to get started. Commands for those platforms are all provided in the Get Review Board workflow on https://www.reviewboard.org/. You also have the option of using the installer (for Linux or Windows), pre-built VMs, or cloud deployment options from Bitnami: https://bitnami.com/stack/reviewboard-plus-powerpack. These will set everything up for you if you're really stuck (though it's a custom environment, so support has to go through them, but you can at least use it to evaluate). I understand it can be frustrating when things don't work, but it's best to ask for help before taking digs at the product in a public place. Generally, installation goes well, but when installation problems do occur, they're very environment-specific. Would you mind going into details on what problems you're having? Knowing your environment (OS and version) and the precise problems you hit (including errors or questions you're having) would help us help you get going. It's 4AM here, but I can respond in the morning. Christian On Thu, Jul 6, 2017 at 3:59 AM, Radio Active <[email protected]> wrote: > We are considering using Review Board.
