how can I restart redmine?

Question

Redmine has to be restarted after a plugin installation.

How can I do that on linux? Does it mean to restart my web server (nginx in my case)? Or do I have to do something else?

touch /path/to/redmine/tmp/restart.txt

Redmine will restart at the next page request. This is often the only way if you're on an instance where you don't have permission to restart Apache (shared hosting, etc).

Restart your webserver. How to do that depends on your webserver you installed Redmine in, and your Linux distribution. For Apache on Debian, I'd do a:

# /etc/init.d/apache restart

Ubuntu (10.04) installs redmine (0.9.3) with passenger. It is passenger that really does restart application using (in /usr/share/redmine):

touch tmp/restart.txt

However, there is another point there. In config/environment.rb, the setting

config.action_mailer.perform_deliveries = false

must be changed to:

config.action_mailer.perform_deliveries = true

I found it was too much hassle to setup Gmail SMTP, so I've rather setup exim4.
