Internal error 500 thrown when I try to navigate through Redmine. I have googled error and found some clues but none helped.

I was following this set up guide to install redmine. You can find it HERE

Error looks like this:

Internal error

An error occurred on the page you were trying to access. If you continue to experience problems please contact your Redmine administrator for assistance.

If you are the Redmine administrator, check your log files for details about the error.

Solved by doing this :

Step 8 - File system permissions¶

NB: Windows users can skip this section.

The user account running the application must have write permission on the following subdirectories:

files (storage of attachments) log (application log file production.log) tmp and tmp/pdf (create these ones if not present, used to generate PDF documents among other things) public/plugin_assets (assets of plugins) E.g., assuming you run the application with a redmine user account:

mkdir -p tmp tmp/pdf public/plugin_assets sudo chown -R redmine:redmine files log tmp public/plugin_assets sudo chmod -R 755 files log tmp public/plugin_assets Step 9 - Test the installation Test the installation by running WEBrick web server:

with Redmine 1.4.x: ruby script/server webrick -e production with Redmine 2.x: ruby script/rails server webrick -e production Once WEBrick has started, point your browser to http://:3000/. You should now see the application welcome page.

Note: Webrick is not suitable for production use, please only use webrick for testing that the installation up to this point is functional. Use one of the many other guides in this wiki to setup redmine to use either Passenger (aka mod_rails), FCGI or a Rack server (Unicorn, Thin, Puma, hellip;) to serve up your redmine.
