Review Board Bitnami stack blog post
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 -- Want to help the Review Board project?

stuck on searching
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!

RBTools questions
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!

The CSS in parts of the admin section seem a bit off. I have some colors but not all formatting is in place. I'm not 100% positive but it seems some pages are missing a link to "/reviewboard/media/admin/ css/base.css" ??

Re: problems running rb 1.0 in an apache subdir
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.

I'm going back through everything this AM - the only thing I can't find is this reference in my reviewboard.conf ... SetEvn DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE reviewboard.settings ...

stuck with install/config
I've scrapped my previous attempt at setting up ReviewBoard on Windows and now have an Ubuntu 8.10 server setup in VirtualBox. Got all the dependencies installed I believe with no errors. I setup a 'reviewboard' site and have /var/www/reviewboard setup. Apache is starting with no errors using my reviewboard.conf file. But when I try to hit http://reviewboard (I setup an entry in my hosts file to point to 127.0.0.1) nothing happens. No error. No site... Any ideas? I've never messed with Python so not quite sure how best to troubleshoot. I was reading through some of the older emails on the list and I don't seem to have a settings.py file either. Though when I run through the site creation script it seems to complete OK. Jim --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "reviewboard" group.

cmemcache instructions
I'm running through the Linux install instructions and got hung up on cmemcache. The instructions mention running make/make install, etc. This no longer appears to be the case.

Yeah - if this doesn't work - I'll go that route. The machine I'm using isn't very powerful but hopefully it'll be good enough for 4-5 people on my team to try it out.
