No Work Package Types and other configuration

Added by John Sparkles over 9 years ago

Hi,

I’ve done a setup using the Ubuntu package installer (sudo apt-get install openproject) and none of the Work Package types that I see in tutorials or videos seem to be there. Same applies for Workflows and other pre-defined configuration I would expect to be there.

Do I have a broken install? Did I miss a step to set this stuff up? Is it a module I need to install? How can I start to work this issue out?

Thanks,
John

Hi John,

did you run sudo openproject configure?

If yes, please try to run sudo openproject run bundle exec rake db:seed.

Best,

Jonas

Hi Jonas,

Yes, I did run the configure step.

I tried running the db:seed step as well. There still does not appear to be any Types or Workflows defined. I can provide a DB dump if that is helpful as there isn’t really any proprietary data in the DB yet.

Thanks,
John

Hi John,

could you tell me what exactly you did to install OpenProject? E.g. was it a fresh installation, so did you have the database before?
And do you have any types at all? If so, when did you create those?

Best,

Jonas

Hi Jonas,

Sorry for the slow reply. I did have an openproject installation before. I never really used it and had forgotten the passwords so wanted to start over. I thought I had everything cleaned up. How can I do a clean of everything and re-install? There isn’t anything in this database I want to keep.

Thanks,
John

Hi John,

I think the easiest would be to drop the databases directly in the database client (e.g. mysql). Then remove the package (e.g. apt-get remove) and install it again.
If you run openproject configure now the seeds should be running.

Best,

Jonas
