Hello Rajesh,

you won’t find Timelines in OpenProject 2.4 because it isn’t part of OpenProject up to that version. If you’re interested in all the new features of OpenProject (including Timelines), please download and install the upcoming OpenProject 3.0.

Kind regards,
Hagen

Okay thanks Hagen, so the Work packages, activities are also part of 3.0 only right ?
Does 3.0 works with Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 ? I could find instructions for Ubuntu specifically on the site.

Regards
Rajesh

Hello Rajesh,

Activity is available in OpenProject 2.4, too. But, yes, you’re right, Work Packages are specific to OpenProject 3.0.

We know about OpenProject 3.0 running on a Redhat Enterprise Linux 5, so I assume that there is no problem installing OpenProject 3.0 on a Redhat Enterprise Linux 6. If it does not cause you any inconvenience, you may provide an installation guide for Redhat Enterprise Linux 6?

In any case, if you have trouble to get OpenProject 3.0 running on your system, don’t hesitate to get back to us!

Kind regards,
Hagen

Sure Hagen. Thanks for your guidance and support.

Regards
Rajesh

Hello Hagen,

I was able to install 3.0 on RHEL 6, pretty much the steps are same like the general instructions for 3.0 given in the site. I am able to run it in development mode using the following command “bundle exec rails server”.

But I am getting an error, when I try to run the server in production mode. Could we run 3.0 in Production mode ? I am using the following command “RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails server”

Also when I checked the mysql “openproject” database, I am not able to see any tables got created, where as tables are present in “openproject_development” database. Could you please advise, is there anything I need to specifically do to make this run.

Hello Rajesh,

first congrats to your OpenProject 3.0 installation! :-)

Regarding your issue in the production environment: It seems to me that OpenProject uses the old 2.4 database in production. If this is correct you either need to drop or to migrate this database.

Drop the database

Run the following command to create the production database from scratch:

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake db:drop db:create db:migrate db:seed # if db:seed fails just restart it alone

Migrate the database

Just follow the migration instructions (beginning with the database migration from OpenProject 2.4 to 3.0).

Please note that you need to pre-compile the assets for production mode:

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake assets:precompile

Additionally, consider the comment of Markus.

Kind Regards,
Hagen

Hello Hagen,
I have followed the instructions given and its working fine. Please find the sequence, I followed.
RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake db:drop db:create db:migrate db:seed # if db:seed fails just restart it alone RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake assets:precompile

After this when I ran the instance in production mode, it came up, but the home page did not have any images and it was just showing few html links (like skeleton of a webpage). To resolve this issue, I have made the following change to production.rb file in /config/environments/production.rb

# Disable Rails's static asset server (Apache or nginx will already do this) #config.serve_static_assets = false # Commented out above line to make the value as true, this resolved the home page loading issue config.serve_static_assets = true

After this the launch of the application mode in Production is working perfectly fine.
Thank you so much for all your guidance.

Regards
Rajesh
