[rt-devel] RT 2.1.12-Win32 beta distribution

[Autrijus Tang]

Hello everybody. :)

I would like to call for beta testers my newly released Request Tracker
Apache2-Win32 Port.

This release corresponds to the main branch's 2.1.12 version, but
with additional tweaks both as patches to the source and as helper
files under the winrt/ directory.

There are four files available for download:

- http://autrijus.org/rt-2-1-12-win32.exe

  This executable is a all-in-one installer for general users.
  It defaults to install in "Program Files\Request Tracker",
  but any other directory will do. It comes with Apache2.0.36,
  Perl 5.7.3-blead (build 16610), MySQL 4.0.1-Max, RT 2.1.12
  (patched), as well as the WinRT helper files under winrt/.
  
  After installation, it automatically creates a Desktop shortcut
  named 'Launch RT' and run it, which should register a 'RT'
  service in the system, launch Apache2 Monitor in the Tray bar,
  as well as popping out a browser that lets you log in to RT.

  The user name is the default 'root', and the password is
  'password'. Please change them at your earliest convenience.

  Also enabled is the Integrated NT domain logon, for accounts
  that have the matching 'UnixLoginname' (a.k.a. 'Gecos') fields.
  This currently requires Internet Explorer 4.0 or above to work.

  Configuration are kept under winrt/conf/. Server logs are under
  winrt/logs/. You could generally use the Apache2 Monitor to
  start/stop/pause RT.

- http://autrijus.org/rt-2-1-12-win32.zip

  This file contains the rt/, winrt/ and perl/site/lib directories
  from the above installation; it is intended for developers that
  wishes to build one's own environment. You need to install the
  latest version of Perl (with ithreads), MySQL (with InnoDB)
  and Apache2 to the perl/, mysql/ and apache/ directories, run
  winrt/bin/initdb.bat to initialize the database, and (optionally)
  use MakeNSIS to build a distribution from winrt/build/rt.nsi.

  Use winrt/bin/winrt.bat to start the RT service.

- http://autrijus.org/rt-2-1-12-win32.tgz

  This file contains the rt/ and winrt/ directories in UNIX line
  ending, aimed for non-win32 developers and RT core developers
  for the ease of merging.

- http://autrijus.org/rt-2-1-12-win32.diff

  This file is the unified diff between the rt/ directory and the
  official rt-2-1-12.tar.gz distribution. See this for what has
  been changed to the main branch.

Please report any problems to <autrijus at autrijus.org>.

Enjoy!
