How to Install Roundup Issue Tracker on Fedora Server Latest?

Roundup Issue Tracker is a Python-based software designed to manage and track issues within an organization. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install it on Fedora Server Latest.

Prerequisites

Before installing Roundup, ensure that your Fedora Server Latest has the following:

• A user account with administrative privileges.
• A stable internet connection.
• Python 2.7 or later installed on the server.

Step 1: Install Required Dependencies

Open your terminal and run the following command to install the dependencies required to install Roundup:

sudo dnf install -y python2-pip python2-devel libffi-devel openssl-devel

Step 2: Download and Install Roundup

Run the following command to download and install Roundup:

sudo pip install roundup

This will download and install Roundup along with its dependencies on your Fedora Server Latest.

Step 3: Set Up a Roundup Instance

Next, we will set up a new Roundup instance. We will assume that you have a domain name or IP address that you will use to access the Roundup instance.

We will create a new Roundup instance named roundup_tracker in the /opt/ directory.

Run the following commands to create a new directory and copy the sample configuration file:

sudo mkdir /opt/roundup_tracker
sudo cp -r /usr/share/doc/roundup/examples/ /opt/roundup_tracker

Rename the config.sample.ini file to config.ini:

sudo cp config.sample.ini config.ini

Edit the config.ini file using your preferred text editor and change the values of the following parameters:

[tracker]
web: :8912
sitename: YourSiteName
admin_email: YourAdminEmail

You can add additional parameters as per your requirements.

Save and close the file.

Step 4: Start the Roundup Server

Now, start the Roundup server using the following command:

roundup-server /opt/roundup_tracker

This will start a server that listens on the default port 8912. If you want to use a different port, change the web parameter in the config.ini file accordingly.

You can access the Roundup instance by navigating to the following URL in your web browser:

http://ip_or_domain_name:8912
