Hopefully, http://dev.fluxbuntu.org will be pointing at it shortly.

Get rails and mongrel, along with all the deps:

sudo gem install rails mongrel redcloth syntax sqlite3-ruby xhtmldiff

Now, get ruby-mysql, which requires some junk on FC5:

sudo yum install mysql mysql-devel
sudo gem install mysql -- --with-mysql-config

Now, get the trunk:

svn co http://svn.collaboa.org/svn/collaboa/trunk/ collaboa --username=anon --password=anon

I’m going to use SQLLite for this project. I have to make the database:

touch db/pdn.db

Here’s my database.yml:

production:
  adapter: sqlite3
  dbfile: db/pdn.db

Now, I have to tell it where my repositories are (config/repository.yml):

production:
  repos_path: /path/to/repos/hank

Now that the database and repository files are setup, I have to import the schema and default settings:

RAILS_ENV="production" rake db_schema_import
RAILS_ENV="production" ruby db/default_content.rb

Now I finally sync the repository with the database:

./script/repository_syncer

Time to start mongrel!

mongrel_rails start -p 3010

Now, I redirect the apache server to mongrel when /browse is accessed (I’m running mongrel on port 3010)(bottom of conf.d/svn.conf):

Redirect /browse  http://example.com/browse
ProxyPass /browse/ http://localhost:3010/browse/
ProxyPassReverse /browse/ http://localhost:3010/browse/

NOTEs:

• Make sure that BOTH YOUR PROXYPASS LINES HAVE A FINAL / AT THE END OF EACH ARGUMENT. This will solve the redirection limit errors.
• Make a symbolic link in public to itself, and call it whatever you named the proxypass (in this example, browse). This will stop the no-images/stylesheets madness.
