| 1228 | 223 Configure a Web Interface |
| 224 ------------------------- | |
| 225 | |
| 226 There are three web interfaces to choose from: | |
| 227 | |
| 228 1. `web server cgi-bin`_ | |
| 229 2. `stand-alone web server`_ | |
| 230 3. `Zope product - ZRoundup`_ | |
| 231 | |
| 232 You may need to give the web server user permission to access the tracker home | |
| 233 - see the `shared environment steps`_ for information. | |
| 234 | |
| 235 | |
| 236 Web Server cgi-bin | |
| 237 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 238 | |
| 239 A benefit of using the cgi-bin approach is that it's the easiest way to | |
| 240 restrict access to your tracker to only use HTTPS. Access will be slower | |
| 241 than through the `stand-alone web server`_ though. | |
| 242 | |
| 243 Copy the ``cgi-bin/roundup.cgi`` file to your web server's ``cgi-bin`` | |
| 244 directory. You will need to configure it to tell it where your tracker home | |
| 245 is. You can do this either: | |
| 246 | |
| 247 through an environment variable | |
| 248 set the variable TRACKER_HOMES to be a colon (":") separated list of | |
| 249 name=home pairs (if you're using apache, the SetEnv directive can do this) | |
| 250 directly in the ``roundup.cgi`` file itself | |
| 251 add your instance to the TRACKER_HOMES variable as ``'name': 'home'`` | |
| 252 | |
| 253 The "name" part of the configuration will appear in the URL and identifies the | |
| 254 tracker (so you may have more than one tracker per cgi-bin script). Make sure | |
| 255 there are no spaces or other illegal characters in it (to be safe, stick to | |
| 256 letters and numbers). The "name" forms part of the URL that appears in the | |
| 257 tracker config TRACKER_WEB variable, so make sure they match. The "home" | |
| 258 part of the configuration is the tracker home directory. | |
| 259 | |
| 260 Stand-alone Web Server | |
| 261 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 262 | |
| 263 This approach will give you the fastest of the three web interfaces. You may | |
| 264 investigate using ProxyPass or similar configuration in apache to have your | |
| 265 tracker accessed through the same URL as other systems. | |
| 266 | |
| 267 The stand-alone web server is started with the command ``roundup-server``. It | |
| 268 has several options - display them with ``roundup-server -h``. | |
| 269 | |
| 270 The tracker home configuration is similar to the cgi-bin - you may either edit | |
| 271 the script to change the TRACKER_HOMES variable or you may supply the | |
| 272 name=home values on the command-line after all the other options. | |
| 273 | |
| 274 To make the server run in the background, use the "-d" option, specifying the | |
| 275 name of a file to write the server process id (pid) to. | |
| 276 | |
| 277 | |
| 278 Zope Product - ZRoundup | |
| 279 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 280 | |
| 281 ZRoundup installs as a regular Zope product. Copy the ZRoundup directory to | |
| 282 your Products directory either in INSTANCE_HOME/Products or the Zope | |
| 283 code tree lib/python/Products. | |
| 284 | |
| 285 When you next (re)start up Zope, you will be able to add a ZRoundup object | |
| 286 that interfaces to your new tracker. | |
| 287 | |
| 288 | |
| 289 Configure an Email Interface | |
| 290 ---------------------------- | |
| 291 | |
| 292 If you don't want to use the email component of Roundup, then remove the | |
| 293 "``nosyreator.py``" module from your tracker "``detectors``" directory. | |
| 294 | |
| 295 There are three supported ways to get emailed issues into the | |
| 296 Roundup tracker. You should pick ONE of the following, all | |
| 297 of which will continue my example setup from above: | |
| 298 | |
| 299 As a mail alias pipe process | |
| 300 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 301 | |
| 302 Set up a mail alias called "issue_tracker" as (include the quote marks): | |
| 303 "``|/usr/bin/python /usr/local/bin/roundup-mailgw <tracker_home>``" | |
| 304 | |
| 305 In some installations (e.g. RedHat 6.2 I think) you'll need to set up smrsh so | |
| 306 sendmail will accept the pipe command. In that case, symlink | |
| 307 ``/etc/smrsh/roundup-mailgw`` to "``/usr/local/bin/roundup-mailgw``" and change | |
| 308 the command to:: | |
| 309 | |
| 310 |roundup-mailgw /opt/roundup/trackers/support | |
| 311 | |
| 312 To test the mail gateway on unix systems, try:: | |
| 313 | |
| 314 echo test |mail -s '[issue] test' support@YOUR_DOMAIN_HERE | |
| 315 | |
| 316 As a regular cron job using a mailbox source | |
| 317 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 318 | |
| 319 Set ``roundup-mailgw`` up to run every 10 minutes or so. For example:: | |
| 320 | |
| 321 10 * * * * /usr/local/bin/roundup-mailgw /opt/roundup/trackers/support mailbox <mail_spool_file> | |
| 322 | |
| 323 Where the ``mail_spool_file`` argument is the location of the roundup submission | |
| 324 user's mail spool. On most systems, the spool for a user "issue_tracker" | |
| 325 will be "``/var/mail/issue_tracker``". | |
| 326 | |
| 327 As a regular cron job using a POP source | |
| 328 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | |
| 329 | |
| 330 To retrieve from a POP mailbox, use a similar cron entry to the mailbox one:: | |
| 331 | |
| 332 10 * * * * /usr/local/bin/roundup-mailgw /opt/roundup/trackers/support pop <pop_spec> | |
| 333 | |
| 334 where pop_spec is "``username:password@server``" that specifies the roundup | |
| 335 submission user's POP account name, password and server. | |

341 Each tracker ideally should have its own UNIX group, so create |
| 1049 | 342 a UNIX group (edit ``/etc/group`` or your appropriate NIS map if |
| 343 you're using NIS). To continue with my examples so far, I would | |
| 344 create the UNIX group 'support', although the name of the UNIX | |

347 working with this Roundup tracker. In addition to 'real' users, |
| 1049 | 348 the Roundup email gateway will need to have permissions to this |
| 349 area as well, so add the user your mail service runs as to the | |
| 350 group. The UNIX group might then look like:: | |

| 352 support:*:1002:jblaine,samh,geezer,mail | |
