Here is an error from the log file which I hope will track down the issue:

HELP: Upgrade to 3.0.7 results in all reviews returning a Something broke! (Error 500)

[Alfred von Campe]

I’m not sure what is going on:  the initial “easy_install -U ReviewBoard” did 
return an error, but after forcing the install of version 3.0.3 where I was 
upgrading from, another easy_install -U ReviewBoard succeeded, as did the 
rb-site upgrade.  I can add users again to review groups (which is the reason I 
updated in the first place), but I can’t access any reviews!

Please help!

Issue with Review Groups

[Alfred von Campe]

Trying to access some, but not all, of my review groups in the Web UI result in 
a "Something broke! (Error 500)” error, and I get the (slightly sanitized) 
traceback included below.  Any ideas what may be causing this?

Restricting access to logged in users only?

[Alfred von Campe]

Is there a way to prevent users from getting access to review requests unless 
they are logged in?  It’s been brought to my attention that you can see review 
requests and their associated code diffs even when you are not logged in, and 
we are trying to prevent that.

Thanks,
Alfred

Re: How can I debug ReviewBoard Authentication problems?

[Alfred von Campe]

Christian:

This problem was really frustrating.  Basically ReviewBoard had been down for 
two days.  I had modified the Authentication setting first to use one of the 3 
remaining good domain controllers to no avail, and after your email I listed 
all 3 DCs but still no joy.  However, restarting Apache made it work.  The 
reason I didn’t try that earlier is that I rebooted the server yesterday so I 
didn’t think restarting Apache would make a difference.

I will try to use LDAP instead of Active Domain when I set up the new server, 
which I plan to do in the next few weeks (and upgrade from 2.5.6.1 to 3.latest 
at the same time).

Thanks as always for your help,
Alfred

Re: How can I debug ReviewBoard Authentication problems?

[Alfred von Campe]

Christian:

The original domain controller configured in ReviewBoard is still down, but 
I’ve reconfigured the ReviewBoard instance to use a different domain 
controller, which I can see both in the Web UI as well as in the database.  
However, the problem still occurs.  The only problem shown in the log file is:

2018-02-21 12:27:45,084 - WARNING -  - Active Directory: Domain controller is 
down
2018-02-21 12:27:45,085 - ERROR -  - Active Directory error: Could not contact 
any domain controller servers

It’s almost as if the original domain controller is still cached somewhere - is 
that a possibility, and if so, how do I clear the cache?  Also, to avoid this 
problem in the future, is there a way to provide a fallback domain controller 
so that if one is down, ReviewBoard automatically checks the next one?

Alfred

How can I debug ReviewBoard Authentication problems?

[Alfred von Campe]

Our ReviewBoard server is configured to use Active Directory for 
authentication.  The Domain Controller it was configured to use for 
authentication had a catastrophic HW failure so users can no longer log in to 
ReviewBoard.  Fortunately I had an existing ReviewBoard session open in a 
browser tab and I configured the Authentication setting to use a different 
domain controller.  However, user’s still can’t log in.  I even rebooted the 
server hosting ReviewBoard to no avail, so hence my question as to how can I 
debug this issue?  For now, my existing browser session is still working (even 
after the server reboot), so I can check and change settings.  Otherwise, I 
don’t know how I would go about making any changes.

Bulk update of repository information?

[Alfred von Campe]

When I created the repositories on our ReviewBoard server, I originally left 
the Bug Tracker information blank.  I would now like to update all repos to

Re: Failed to send notification to slack.com

Hi David:

Right you are.  I forgot that a while ago one of the developers asked me to 
install this extension, but we never properly configured it. I’ve disabled it 
for now.

Thanks,

No, but it occurred to me to do that just before I saw your post, and now it’s 
working!  It appears to be a bit slower than our previous instance, but that 
may be due to the hardware (or rather VM) that it’s running on.  I haven’t 
checked the specs of the VM that was provided by our IT department, but I will 
be comparing the two systems tomorrow.

Good idea.  The repo based Python LDAP module was version 2.4.15.  Using 
easy_install (not pip), I got version 2.4.27.  However, I’m now back to the 
"ImportError: No module named ldap” error, even though the easy_Install appears 
to have been successful;

# easy_install  python-ldap
.
.
.
Adding python-ldap 2.4.27 to easy-install.pth file

Installed 
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/python_ldap-2.4.27-py2.7-linux-x86_64.egg
Processing dependencies for python-ldap
Finished processing dependencies for python-ldap

I then installed pip via easy_install, and when I tried to do a “pip install 
python-ldap” it reports that the requirement is already satisfied:

# pip install python-ldap
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): python-ldap in 
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/python_ldap-2.4.27-py2.7-linux-x86_64.egg
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): setuptools in 
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages (from python-ldap)

So it appears that the ldap module is installed (and a “import ldap” from 
Python confirms it), but ReviewBoard can’t seem to find it:

As usual, your advice was right on the money.  I checked the reviewboard.log 
file and there was a "ImportError: No module named ldap” error.  That was 
easily remedied on the CentOS 7 system with a "yum install python-ldap”.  
However, the login is still failing, this time with a "NameError: global name 
'filter_format' is not defined” error in the log file.  Any ideas what could be 
causing that?

Yup, that was it.  I took another database dump, used sed to change all 
instances of “MyISAM” to “InnoDB”, and re-imported the database dump.  This 
time the “rb-site upgrade” completed successfully (see log output at the end of 
this message). The web server appears to be configured properly as I can access 
the site and look at all the existing reviews.  However, when I try to log into 
the site, I get the following error:
Something broke! (Error 500)

It appears something broke when you tried to go to here. This is either a bug 
in Review Board or a server configuration error. Please report this to your 
administrator.

We are authenticating against our corporate AD servers, and this works fine on 
the existing (CentOS 6 and RB V1.7.27) ReviewBoard instance.  It’s only on the 
new instance (CentOS 7 and RB V2.5.6.1) that I get this issue.  I must have 
missed a configuration setting somewhere.  Any ideas what that might be or what 
log files I should be examining to figure out where the problem is?

If you want me to review/edit it as I’m doing the migration, I will be glad to. 
 Just let me know.

Ah, that’s where it is.  I should have known.  In any event, I thought I used 
the same password but I was off by one character.  In order to make the 
migration easier (I plan to do it multiple times until I get it right), I 
updated the password for the rb user on the new server to match the old one, so 
I can just copy the site directory as is from the older server to the new one.  
However, after I did that, I got the errors below running the rb-site upgrade 
command.  I must have missed one minor step when creating the database, but 
don’t know what.

Thanks,
Alfred

Migrating to a new server

[Alfred von Campe]

I must be missing a simple step somewhere.  I’m trying to migrate a ReviewBoard 
version 1.7.27 instance running on CentOS 6 to version 2.5.6.1 on CentOS 7.  
I’ve installed ReviewBoard (via EPEL RPM) on the new server, installed MySQL 
and created the reviewboard database, loaded the SQL dump from the old server, 
copied the site directory to the new server, and am trying to run “rb-site 
upgrade”.  This fails with the following error: 
"django.db.utils.OperationalError: (1045, "Access denied for user 
'rb'@'localhost' (using password: YES)”)”, which make sense because I haven’t 
configured the password anywhere.  Where does it go?  

The documentation is great about how to set up a new site, but I can’t find 
anything about migrating from one server to another.  Is there such a document?

Re: Problems attaching an image to a review

[Alfred von Campe]

David:

 Can you check the result of `rb-site manage /var/www/html/rb/ get-siteconfig 
 -- --key=site_media_url` ?
 
 My guess is that it will say /rb/htdocs/media/
 
 If so, run this:
 
 `rb-site manage /var/www/html/rb/ set-siteconfig -- --key=site_media_url 
 --value=/media/
 
 And it should fix the links.

Your guess was correct:

$ rb-site manage /var/www/html/rb/ get-siteconfig -- --key=site_media_url
/rb/htdocs/media/
$ rb-site manage /var/www/html/rb/ set-siteconfig -- --key=site_media_url 
--value=/media/
Setting 'site_media_url' to /media/
$ rb-site manage /var/www/html/rb/ get-siteconfig -- --key=site_media_url
/media/

After I made the change I initially still had the problem, but after restarting 
Apache it’s working fine.  Thanks so much for your help.

Problems attaching an image to a review

[Alfred von Campe]

We are using ReviewBoard 1.7.27 on CentOS 6 (I would love to update to 2.X but 
that’s still not easy on CentOS 6 as far as I know).  Reviews re working fine, 
but today a user tried to add a screenshot to a review, and while the file got 
uploaded (I can see it under htdocs/media/uploaded/files/… on the server), if 
you try to access it from the review itself I get the error “The page you were 
looking for does not exist”.  If I hover over the link the URL appears to be 
correct 
(http://hepdsw-rb.bose.com/rb/htdocs/media/uploaded/files/2015/02/24/a3fb3cfe-ba87-455a-95a7-9da7db284e77__Screen_Shot_2015-02-23_at_1.58.12_PM.png

Subversion access via https:// and plaintext passwords

[Alfred von Campe]

We have been using ReviewBoard with our Subversion repos using svn+ssh:// 
access, and while functional, it’s been a little slow.  Performance with 
https:// access to our Subversion servers is noticeably faster, but when I 
configure the Repository in ReviewBoard and specify the username and password 
to use, I noticed that the password is stored in plain text in the database.  
The database itself is not easily accessible by users, but the nightly database 
dumps could be read by others, so I am concerned about a possible exposure of 
automated build user account password.

We are still using ReviewBoard 1.7.27 as it is hosted on a CentOS 6 server, so 
upgrading to 2.X is not trivial.  Is it common practice for ReviewBoard users 
to store repository passwords in the database in plain text?

Re: Subversion access via https:// and plaintext passwords

[Alfred von Campe]

Christian:

 If you upgrade to the 2.0 releases, all passwords will be encrypted. I know 
 it's not trivial, and maybe we can backport that to a 1.7 release, but as 
 we're about to start on the 2.5 betas, we're unlikely to continue making 
 major changes to 1.7 from here on out. We'll see what we can do though.

Thanks for the lightning-quick response.  So am I correct in assuming that 
prior to ReviewBoard 2.X everyone stored their passwords in plain text?  That 
is, unless they accessed their repos with ssh keys and no password was required.

 Review Board 2.0.11 packages for Fedora 21 and EPEL 7 are now on their

Any update on Review Board 2.X packages for RHEL 6?  I know that you were

I don’t know what kind of help you would need and if I could be of any
assistance, but maybe if you send a plea to this list with specific items
you need help with, you may get some volunteers.

 Of course, if you have a RHEL subscription, you have access to RHEL 7 as
 well; perhaps you could just start up a RHEL 7 VM?

I actually use CentOS and am not ready to move to CentOS 7 yet as some of
our applications don’t work o it.  However, I could ask our IT department
if they can provide a RHEL 7 VM dedicated to ReviewBoard.

 There's also the Review Board Docker image[1] that should run on Docker
 in RHEL 6.

Hmm, that’s an interesting option.  I’ve read a little about Docker but
have not used it.  I was under the impression that you have to run the
same OS version on the host and the Docker images, but maybe that’s not
the case.

Re: Can't download attachments

 So clearly something changed for the better, yet I still can't download

 verified that the file it's trying to download does exist on the web server's 
 file system by cutting and pasting the path shown in the access_log file and 
 appending it to the web server root directory (/var/www/html).
 
 Some more data: in /etc/http/conf.d/rb.conf the DocumentRoot is defined as 
 /var/www/html/rb/htdocs.  Should the media URL be relative to this?  
 Everything else appears to be working fine...

Can't change Server field

[Alfred von Campe]

I recently had to migrate a ReviewBoard instance from one server to another.  I 
have the new instance running, and everything seems to be OK except that emails 
sent by the new instance contain URLs that point to the old server.  When I log 
into the Admin interface and try to change the Server field in GENERAL 
SETTINGS, it says The settings have been saved, but when the page refreshes 
the old server name is back in the Server field.  What am I doing wrong?

Alfred

P.S.  I haven't been following this list for a few months, so sorry if this has 
been asked and answered before, but are there plans to make RB 2.X available 
via EPEL for CentOS 6?

This seems to have worked.  Because I had tried to install ReviewBoard 1.6.6 
via easy_install, my server was in a state where I couldn't run the rb-site 
command anymore.  I think I have successfullyr epaired this after lots of 
manual deletion and re-installation.

But now I have another problem.  During this upgrade, the paths to the RB site 
have changed slightly, and after the installation I get a message about a 
missing htdocs/media/uploaded directory using he old path.  So I guess that 
somewhere in the database the old path is stored.  Remember, you guys suggested 
that I delete the new database before importing the old one.  How do I fix this?

Also, I guess I have to copy the contents of 
htdocs/media/uploaded/{images,files} from the old server to the new so that all 
the uploaded files and images from the old server are available on the new 
server.  And I also have to copy the secret key into settings_local.py.  
Anything else that needs to be done to migrate the data to the new server?  I 
think I am getting close.

OK, I figured this out myself.  I searched for the old path in the MySQL dump 
file and changed all instances to the new path.  So far, so good.  The only 
problem I have is that I can't log in to the new ReviewBoard server.  Even the 
local account doesn't work.  How do I debug authentication failures?  The local 
account was created with the following command:

rb-site install --console --noinput --domain-name=$RB_DOMAIN --site-root=/ 
--db-type=mysql --db-name=reviewboard --db-host=localhost --db-user=rb 
--db-pass=$RB_PASSWORD \

--admin-user=admin --admin-password=$RB_PASSWORD --admin-email=$RB_EMAIL 
--cache-info=localhost:11211 $RB_SITE

 Also, I guess I have to copy the contents of

 all the uploaded files and images from the old server are available on the 
 new server.  And I also have to copy the secret key into settings_local.py.  
 Anything else that needs to be done to migrate the data to the new server?  I

I ended up adding the following lines to my script to copy all the relevant 
data from the old instance to the new:

rsync -av $RB_SITE_OLD/htdocs/media/uploaded/. 
$RB_SITE/htdocs/media/uploaded/.
cp -pr $RB_SITE_OLD/data/.ssh $RB_SITE/data
sed -i.orig s/SECRET_KEY = '.*'/$(grep SECRET_KEY

Is there anything else I may have missed?

Error migrating and upgrading from 1.6.6 to 1.7.13

[Alfred von Campe]

I'm trying to upgrade a REviewBoard instance from 1.6.6 to 1.7.13.  I've 
created a dump of the existing database and am running the following script on 
the new server:

#!/bin/sh

RB_SITE=/var/www/html/rb
RB_USER=admin
RB_EMAIL=
RB_DOMAIN=
RB_PASSWORD=

# Delete and create empty rb database
echo drop database reviewboard; create database reviewboard; use reviewboard; 
grant all privileges on revieboard.* to 'rb'@'localhost' identified by 
'$RB_PASSWORD' with grant option; | mysql -u rb -p$RB_PASSWORD

# Delete existing ReviewBoard site directory so it can be recreated
/bin/rm -fr $RB_SITE

# Create the new ReviewBoard site 
rb-site install --console --noinput --domain-name=$RB_DOMAIN --site-root=/ 
--db-type=mysql --db-name=reviewboard --db-host=localhost --db-user=rb 
--db-pass=$RB_PASSWORD --cache-type=memcached --web-server-type=apache 
--python-loader=wsgi --admin-user=admin --admin-password=$RB_PASSWORD 
--admin-email=$RB_EMAIL --cache-info=localhost:11211 $RB_SITE

# Import tables from old database
echo
echo Importing tables from old database (please wait...)
mysql -u rb -p$RB_PASSWORD  $(dirname $RB_SITE)/rb_dump.sql

# Upgrade ReviewBoard site (trying twice)
rb-site upgrade $RB_SITE
rb-site upgrade $RB_SITE
rb-site manage  $RB_SITE list-evolutions


The full log is attached, but the gist is that the rb-site upgrade fails with 
the following error:

Error: Error applying evolution: (1050, Table 
'reviews_reviewrequest_depends_on' already exists)

If I run rb-site upgrade again I get the following error:

 Error: Error applying evolution: (1051, Unknown table 'auth_message')

The log also contains the about of the rb-site manage list-evolutions command.

I would appreciate any information on how I can make this migration work.

Thanks,
Alfred

 What's happening is that rb-site install is creating a bunch of tables, and

 I'd recommend installing 1.6.6 on the new server, importing the database 
 dump, and then upgrading in-place.

Hmm, easier said than done, I think.  I neglected to mention that the old 
server is running CentOS 5.9 with ReviewBoard installed via easy_install, and 
the new server is running CentOS 6.4 with ReviewBoard installed from the peel 
repo.  So how do Install 1.6.X on the new server?  I guess I would have to:

  o Uninstall ReviewBoard 1.7.X via yum remove (yum remove ReviewBoard 
pythin-django-evolution python-django-peipeline python-djblets)
  o Install ReviewBoard 1.6.X via easy_install (what is the exact command I 
need so that 1.6.6 gets installed?)
  o Install ReviewBoard 1.7.X via yum

I am unsure how to install 1.6.X, so the exact easy_install command would be 
appreciated.  Also, I worry that mixing easy_install and yum installations of 
ReviewBoard on the same server may cause some issues down the road.  Has anyone 
done this?  My other option would be to do this on a test server, and then 
export the 1.7.X database to the production server so that I don't mix the two 
installation methods on the production server.

Sigh, I started playing with installing ReviewBoard 1.6 with easy install, and 
seems to have broken rb-site:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Even after re-installing ReviewBoard and python-paramiko I keep getting this 
error.

I will try again on Monday as I need to lave work soon.

Thanks for a great product and support,

Re: Instructions for upgrading and migrating to new server?

On Apr 24, 2013, at 10:55, I wrote:

Am I asking for something unusual here?  Has anyone migrated a RB instance from 
one server to another while upgrading RB at the same time?  I don't quite 
understand how all the moving parts fit together, and want to ensure a smooth 
transition.

 Are the steps to do this documented anywhere?  Will the following steps work 
 (we are using MySQL)?
 
  0. Ensure nobody is using the old server during the migration
  1. Dump old database
  2. Tar up site directory from old server (contains .ssh and .subversion 
 directories with needed config data)
  3. Install ReviewBoard via yum
  4. Create reviewboard database and user
  5. Create new site with rb-site install (need to get new apache config file)
  6. Update apache configuration file with conf file generated in previous step
  7. Delete reviewboard database and load database from old server (after 
 re-creating database and user)
  8. Delete new site and replace with tar file from old server (possible 
 preserving apache conf file)
  9. Run rb-site upgrade
 
 Did I miss something or am I adding any unnecessary steps?
 
 Also, how do I install and configure memcached on additional CentOS 6.4 
 servers?  What is the recommended amount of memory to allocate to memcached 
 for ReviewBoard?

I'm also interested in installing additional memcached servers, which I haven't 
done before (only automatically as part of the RB installation).

Is there a way to rename a user?

[Alfred von Campe]

We are using RB 1.6.6 and LDAP for authentication.  We recently had a 
contractor become a permanent employee and because of this his userid changed.  
So he is in the database twice now, once with the old userid and once with the 
new one.  I can't delete the old userid as it will delete all the objects and 
relate items associated with the userid.

So, is there a way to rename a userid and have the all the existing objects 
owned by the old userid owned by the new userid?

Yes, the new one has reviews and comments, etc. associated with it (actually 
more than the old user does).

 If there are review requests (or reviews/comments/etc.) associated, we'll 
 need to update them. That can be done through a script, but it'd need to be 
 fine-tuned for what's associated with that user.
 
 If you hit delete on the new user, it'll give you a confirmation that will 
 show all objects associated. Having that list would help draft such a script.

I can send you this information tomorrow if you tell me  what format you prefer 
it in.  I would also prefer not to post such details on this list.

 Memory and how much of it that memcached can use is crucial. We cache a

 After that, you'll get some gains from database optimization and from 
 increased CPU performance (for the diff generation).

That's good to know.

 How big is your userbase, and what are your current specs? I know of servers 
 with thousands of users that stand up under constant use. Usually it's just a 
 configuration issue, or lack of memory for caching, that causes the most 
 problems.

A few dozen users and about 15 repos.  It's on an older IBM xServer 335 with a 
3.06GHz Intel Xeon CPU and 2GB or memory with 128MB configured for memcached.  
I've only recently enabled memcached, so I'm not 100% certain it is configured 
properly.  Is there a way to query it to see what it has cached?

Re: Help debugging a hang in RB 1.5

[Alfred von Campe]

 Can you tell me more about your setup (server-side)? In particular:
 
 * OS/distro
 * Review Board version
 * Memory
 * CPU
 * Python version

Sure, here is our server data:
  CentOS 5.5
  ReviewBoard 1.5
  Memory 2GB
  3.06GHz Intel Xeon
  Python 2.4.3

 Strange. When this happens, can you check the process list and see what's 
 using your CPU?

I let it run all night and it's still hung.  However, nothing is using the 
CPU (top doesn't show anything and the load average is 0.00, 0.00, 0.00).

 If I had some source file and diff that I could use to test against, that 
 would greatly help. I realize that may be difficult, though.

I may be able to arrange that.  Do you need just the source file/diffs that it 
is stuck on or the files that precede it as well?

Help debugging a hang in RB 1.5

[Alfred von Campe]

We are experiencing a strange hang when viewing one particular review.  When we 
click on the View DIff we get a new web page and the Files Changed: section 
lists all the files that have changed in this particular request.  There are 20 
files, and the information for the first 6 is updated in a few seconds.  But 
then it hangs on the 7th file until we navigate away from the page (my last 
attempt was about 20 minutes ago and I still have 14 spinning circles on the 
screen).

I know I should upgrade to the 1.5.3 release from earlier today, but before I 
do that I want to try to debug this issue.  The problem is, I don't know where 
to even start.  BTW, when the user that stumbled across this issue reported it 
to me last week, I was able to load this particular review, but today it is 
hanging for me as well.  Always on the same file.  Funny thing is that there is 
only a very minor change to this file.  (I've tried multiple browsers in case 
that matters).

Re: Help debugging a hang in RB 1.5

 Yes, and if you use sqlite especially, you're certain to hit this.
 
 Alfred, what are you using for a database?

We are using MySQL.  

   2. complex diffs being slow to generate diffs, this is a feature of
 the batteries includes difflib in python.
 
 So actually, we don't use difflib. We used to, but it's far too limited and 
 slow. We have our own implementation of the Myers Diff algorithm. It's 
 possible the same problems still apply, though.

The strange part is that I got this particular review request to work for me at 
least twice over the weekend (in two different browsers), but now it's hanging 
for me as well as for the user who originally reported it.  And the particular 
file in question is a Makefile with one very minor one-line change in it!  I 
just tried to access it again and it is hanging.  I will leave it running 
overnight to see what happens.

Minor issue adding a new Subversion repository in ReviewBoard 1.5

[Alfred von Campe]

Did something change in the way Subversion repositories that are accessed via 
ssh are handled in RB 1.5?  Our setup is as follows:

  1. Our web server runs on a Linux server as our build account (not apache)
  2. The build account is configured to allow password-less ssh access to any 
other Linux system
  3. We access our Subversion repositories via svn+ssh:// exclusively

In a prior version of RB (1.0.9?) I was able to add a new Subversion repository 
without having to supply a username and password in the Add repository admin 
screen.  Today I tried to add another Subversion repository for the first time 
since upgrading to RB 1.5, and unless I specify the username and password for 
our build account, it won't let me add a repository.  Furthermore, RB had me 
create a /.ssh directory owned by the user running the web server.  Is this 
expected behavior or an unwanted side effect?  Could I have something 
misconfigured?

Well, the rb-site script created a logs directory at the same level  
as conf, htdocs, and tmp.  In the Admin interface, under Settings/ 
Logging, I have checked the Enable logging checkbox and restarted  
the server.  I left the Log directory text box blank assuming it  
would pick the default logs directory, but maybe that is not the  
case.  The directory is definitely writable by the apache user, but I  
am unsure what I need to put in the text box to make this work.  Is  
the path relative to the RB site or the apache  DocumentRoot or  
something else?

can't get that to work either.

Good point, maybe it is the browser.  I'll try a different browser  
tomorrow to verify this, but in the mean time let's assume that the  
fields are indeed blank.  I'm still not getting any email

assume that there might be something in the RB logs to pint me in the  
right direction, but I have not had any success turning logging on.

Re: Question about running post-review

[Alfred von Campe]

Hi Christian:

 Also, when you saw ClientError from post-review, that was output  
 from the server. So it's the same problem. I'd recommend restarting  
 Apache just in case it is an issue with one or two threads not  
 having imported it successfully.

I thought I had restarted Apache, but perhaps I did not.  I haven't  
seen the error again, so you are probably right.

 I should also mention that the upcoming 1.1 release does a much  
 better job of dependency checking. It's impossible to create a  
 repository entry without first having all the necessary  
 dependencies correctly installed. However, there's nothing we can  
 do about the above problem except to say to restart Apache.

Any idea on the schedule for 1.1?  Is it one day, one week, one  
month, one quarter?

Alfred

Question about AD integration and users/groups

[Alfred von Campe]

I've gotten the AD integration to work.  It was a lot easier than I  
expected and users can log in to ReviewBoard with their regular  
usernames and passwords.  This is great, but I've run into a few issues:

   1. I can not add a user to a review group unless that user has  
logged in to RB at least once.
   2. To add a user to a review, one must know that user's ID (in our  
company it's first initial, last initial, id #: ab12345), and most  
people can barely remember their own IDs
   3. I haven't found a way to use existing AD groups for either RB  
Groups or ReviewGroups.

Is there a way around any of these issues?

Alfred

Question about running post-review

[Alfred von Campe]

I'm still in the process of setting up out ReviewBoard server  
(struggling with LDAP/AD integration at the moment), but I'm looking  
slightly ahead. It appears that post-review is the recommended way to  
create a review (we're using Subversion if that matters), and I can  
see that post-review has been installed into /usr/bin/post-review.   
However, the server I installed ReviewBoard on is not a server that  
allows users to log in, and besides, the user's sandboxes are not on  
that server anyway.  So how is a user supposed to run post-review on  
his or her system?  I'm dealing with a few dozen developers on a few  
dozen Linux systems; am I supposed to install ReviewBoard on each  
user's desktop?

Can't get ReviewBoard configured on CentOS 5.3

[Alfred von Campe]

I reluctantly used easy_install to get ReviewBoard 1.0 installed on  
my CentOS 5.3 server (I would have preferred to use an RPM based  
install, but that is not available).  I actually started to install  
when 1.0rc2 was the latest but had problems back then as well.  At  
the moment I don't know exactly what versions of all the components  
that are installed, only that easy_install finally completed  
installing all dependencies.  Side question #1: how can I tell  
everything that has been installed by easy_install?  Side question  
#2: how can I uninstall everything installed by easy_install so I can  
start from scratch again?

Anyway, now that everything is installed, I get the following error  
when I try to configure ReviewBoard:

# rb-site install /local/www/html/rb
Traceback (most recent call last):

I just recently joined this group and have searched through the  
archives for the string MySQLdb-1.2.1p2 or newer is required and  
nothing showed up.  However, a Google search did find an email thread  
in this group from last month, but it did not really have a good  
solution: one was to install a new driver and the other to install  
and use a separate Python installation.  I don't know how to do the  
former and don't want to do the latter.

What is the best way to install/configure/run ReviewBoard on a CentOS  
5.3 (or Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5) server?
