Review Board Bitnami stack blog post

2012-04-01 Thread Jim Priest
I'm doing a presentation of Review Board at an upcoming development 
conference and was tinkering around with Review Board on Bitnami.

The installation process was very easy - hopefully this will open the door 
to more Review Board users who were intimidated by installation.

I blogged about it here:  
http://thecrumb.com/2012/03/31/review-board-on-virtualbox/

Thanks!
Jim

 Thanks! Good post :) Added to the blog post list on the website.

You still need to add my blog post :)

I actually need post a followup to that as we've actually started
using RB now on our team...

 This sounds like a pretty locked-down system. Are you just looking to play
 around with Review Board, or are you hoping to run a full, working
 installation on that system? If you're looking to just play around, it might
 be worth setting up a Virtual Machine on your own computer running Ubuntu

I've blogged about setting up Review Board in VirtualBox here

http://www.thecrumb.com/2009/07/03/review-board-code-reviews-made-easy-installation/

I'm running that on a older desktop and currently have a few people
using it.   As Christian said - if you don't have root access you
aren't going to get very far.  :(

stuck on searching

2009-12-08 Thread Jim Priest
I believe I have setup JCC and pylucene correctly - I built from
scratch and after I figured out I needed to manually tweak the files
for both - things went smoothly.

My setup:
  * ReviewBoard 1.0
  * VirtualBox: 2.2.4
  * Guest OS: Ubuntu 8.10 Server
  * Python: 2.5
  * MySQL:  5.x
  * Web Server: Apache2

I downloaded PyLucene 2.9.1-1.

I enabled search in the Administrator and then figured out the search
index directory. I manually
ran an index:  rb-site manage /path/to/site index -- --full

and it appears that something was created :)  so I'm assuming that is
working.

But if I search for something - it just hangs forever and the site
eventually becomes unresponsive and I have to restart Apache.

Any ideas where to look?

Thanks!
Jim

 Hello,

 i've installed reviewboard 1.0.5 and i configuredsmtpserver
 correctly and checked Send e-mails for review requests and reviews,
 the problem is when i post a new reveiew or comment, i got an error
 due to enability to send emails to reviewers, i know this because i

I ran into this same email (using our Exchange server as the SMTP
server)

On the mail settings page it asks for server, port, username and
password.  I had entered my username and password there and had the
same behaviour you do - error messages would go out but I'd get 500
error messages.

Taking my username/password out of the mail settings seems to have
fixed things for me.

RBTools questions

2009-10-01 Thread Jim Priest

So I've got Reviewboard up and running on a VM (Virtualbox) on a test
server in my cube and finally have some time to give it a proper
trial.

I've finally gotten around to RTFM and was intrigued by the section
about submitting reviews and using post-review.   This appears to be
part of RBTools but I can't really find any install docs for that.

I want to run this on my workstation to easily submit reviews to the
remote Reviewboard server.  Is that the intended usage?   What do I
need to install on my workstation to use RBTools?  Just Python?

Thanks!
Jim

Re: problems running rb 1.0 in an apache subdir

2009-07-20 Thread Jim Priest

Yes. I blogged about it here:
http://www.thecrumb.com/2009/07/03/review-board-code-reviews-made-easy-installation/

I'm a bit stuck now however because the diff tool doesn't support
ColdFusion so reviews work but the diff view is a bit off.

 Should I just give up and use a subdomain?

  anything else?
 

 I think a bunch of ubuntu package updates (including python and apache)
 could have been installed since I last looked, but django was installed
 with rb not using a distro package.

  Also, just to make sure, did you run rb-site upgrade /path/to/site?
 

 Yes, I did.

          Hi,
 
                 I am trying to install reviewboard so that pages get

          http://dev.mycompany.com/reviews
 
          And when I installed rc2 some time ago it was working
          correctly.
 
          Today I upgraded to 1.0 after the machine running rb was
          brought back up
          (it was down for some days) and rb does not work anymore: rb
          is up, but
          I get the following message
 
          If you're pretty sure this page does exist, try logging in
          and trying
          again.
 
          If you click on logging in you are directed to

          (note the double 'reviews')
 
          As far as I know nothing else changed on the machine.
 
          Do you have any suggestion on how to achieve that and on why
          this
          stopped working after the upgrade?

Re: Diff viewer syntax highlighting for ColdFusion

 Right now, you'd have to hand-modify Pygments (the syntax highlighter
 library we use) or part of Review Board to force a particular syntax
 highlighter. In 1.1, I'm hoping to provide a setting for forcing
 highlighters for file types.

 It's probably best to file a bug report with the Pygments guys and ask them
 about plans for ColdFusion syntax highlighters.

Eric - did you contact the Pygments team?  I'm using ColdFusion as
well and would like to get this fixed.

Can you clarify what you did exactly? I've got the same issue.

The RB site seems down at the moment and I can't hit the docs to see
if I missed something.

Re: Server Error when Submitting new request ONLY if there are SVN Repositories

2009-07-06 Thread Jim Priest

I got the RB docs page up via the Google cache... I skipped the SVN
part (oops)

So I need python-svn on Ubuntu.

Do I also need SVN installed on the same box??  I have a SVN server
elsewhere with our code base...

Thanks!

 As for the configuration, as Jeff Andros said, you probably need to shut off
 the default site and then use this. If that turns out not to be the problem,
 then we can investigate further. Though, it would help to know exactly what

I finally got this working after several stabs at it... I've blogged
about it here:
http://www.thecrumb.com/2009/07/03/review-board-code-reviews-made-easy-installation/

Had several issues with combos of VM and OS, getting cmemcache
installed and a few issues with Apache configs.

Everything seems to be working so next week at work I'll start digging
into the config and setup a few users so we can start tinkering.
