For other configurations, please +see Section 4 of the Bugzilla Guide in the docs/ directory. + +1. Decide from which URL and directory under your webserver root you + will be serving the Bugzilla webpages. + +2. Unpack the distribution into the chosen directory (there is no copying or + installation involved). + +3. Run ./checksetup.pl, look for unsolved requirements, and install them. + You can run checksetup as many times as necessary to check if + everything required has been installed. + + These will usually include assorted Perl modules, MySQL or PostgreSQL, + and a MTA. + + After a successful dependency check, checksetup should complain that + localconfig needs to be edited. + +4. Edit the localconfig file, in particular the $webservergroup and + $db_* variables. In particular, $db_name and $db_user will define + your database setup in step 5. + +5. Using the name you provided as $db_name above, create a MySQL database + for Bugzilla. You should also create a user permission for the name + supplied as $db_user with read/write access to that database. + + If you are not familiar with MySQL permissions, it's a good idea to + use the mysql_setpermission script that is installed with the MySQL + distribution, and be sure to read Bugzilla Security - MySQL section + in the Bugzilla Guide or PostgreSQL documentation. + +6. Run checksetup.pl once more; if all goes well, it should set up the + Bugzilla database for you. If not, return to step 5. + + checksetup.pl should ask you, this time, for the administrator's + email address and password. These will be used for the initial + Bugzilla administrator account. + +7. Configure Apache (or install and configure, if you don't have it up + yet) to point to the Bugzilla directory. You should enable and + activate mod_cgi, and add the configuration entries + + Options +ExecCGI + AllowOverride Limit + DirectoryIndex index.cgi + + to your Bugzilla block. You may also need + + AddHandler cgi-script .cgi + + if you don't have that in your Apache configuration file yet. + +8. Visit the URL you chose for Bugzilla. Your browser should display the + default Bugzilla home page. You should then log in as the + administrator by following the "Log in" link and supplying the + account information you provided in step 6. + +9. Scroll to the bottom of the page after logging in, and select + "Parameters". Set up the relevant parameters for your local setup. + + See section 4.2 of the Bugzilla Guide for a in-depth description of + some of the configuration parameters available. + +10. That's it. If anything unexpected comes up: + + - read the error message carefully, + - backtrack through the steps above, + - check the official installation guide, which is section 4 in the + Bugzilla Guide, included in the docs/ directory in various + formats. + +Support and installation questions should be directed to the +mozilla-webtools@mozilla.org mailing list -- don't write to the +developer mailing list: your post *will* be ignored if you do. + +Further support information is at http://www.bugzilla.org/support/
