Hi,

after installing openproject it does not run as smoothly as expected.

My setup is as follows Debian Wheezy, Ruby 1.9.3, MySQL 5.5. For the installation I created a specific user and put the files into his home-dir. After that I followed the instructions under
https://www.openproject.org/projects/openproject/wiki/Installation_OpenProject_2_4. Had a few hickups with missing things like sqlite3 etc. but nothing serious.

Than I tried to test run the application. After executing the server script I was greeted with an nearly empty page the “Home-Link” looked like that [“Home”, nil, nil]. After logging in with the admin account things got worse, nearly every klick at the nav bar took me to a site with the following content (and an exception[1]).

Routing Error

No route matches “/%22//%22” with {:method=>:get}

I don’t even had a menu on the left side. After going to Modules/Administration and choosing “Load the default configuration” the menu appeared somehow. However, the nav-bar looked like that [“Home”, nil, “Administration”, “Projects”].

Besides that kind of trouble, there is also the problem with slow page loads (due to non production setup as I learned from reading the forum). I think you guys should seriously rework the installation instructions for setting up a production environment in a correct way.
