roundup-server
ROUNDUP-SERVER(1) General Commands Manual ROUNDUP-SERVER(1)
NAME
roundup-server - start roundup web server
SYNOPSIS
roundup-server [options] [name=tracker home]*
OPTIONS
-C file
Use options read from the configuration file (see below).
-n hostname
Sets the host name in the Roundup web server interface.
-p port
Sets the port to listen on (default: 8080).
-d file
Daemonize, and write the server's PID to the nominated file.
-l file
Sets a filename to log to (instead of stdout). This is required if the -d option is used.
-i file
Sets a filename to use as a template for generating the tracker index page. The variable "trackers" is available to the template
and is a dict of all configured trackers.
-s Enables to use of SSL.
-e file
Sets a filename containing the PEM file to use for SSL. If left blank, a temporary self-signed certificate will be used.
-N Log client machine names instead of IP addresses (much slower).
-u UID Runs the Roundup web server as this UID.
-g GID Runs the Roundup web server as this GID.
-d PIDfile
Run the server in the background and write the server's PID to the file indicated by PIDfile. The -l option must be specified if -d
is used.
-v Print version and exit.
-h Print help and exit.
name=tracker home
Sets the tracker home(s) to use. The name variable is how the tracker is identified in the URL (it's the first part of the URL
path). The tracker home variable is the directory that was identified when you did "roundup-admin init". You may specify any number
of these name=home pairs on the command-line. For convenience, you may edit the TRACKER_HOMES variable in the roundup-server file
instead. Make sure the name part doesn't include any url-unsafe characters like spaces, as these confuse the cookie handling in
browsers like IE.
EXAMPLES
roundup-server -p 9000 bugs=/var/tracker reqs=/home/roundup/group1
Start the server on port 9000 serving two trackers; one under /bugs and one under /reqs.
CONFIGURATION FILE
See the "admin_guide" in the Roundup "doc" directory.
AUTHOR
This manpage was written by Bastian Kleineidam <calvin@debian.org> for the Debian distribution of roundup.
