TestLink

Not to revive a thread that "doesn't" need a solution right now, but I will say that I plan on making a new guide using 1.9.5 when I get a little time this next month. I'll post it again if anyone is in need of it. (I'm still using 1.9.3).

Sorry the following sentence above should read:

I went through an upgrade process with a copy of our production testlink DB that was at 1.9.3 and followed the steps for upgrade to 1.9.4 (with some clean-up to the script for MSSQL) and testlink login screen came right up.

Ok good news and bad news. The good news is the fix above (http://mantis.testlink.org/view.php?id=5209) works for 1.9.4. The bad news is that the DB create scripts for MSSQL aren't exactly right which is why it was just "spinning" and not displaying anything. I went through an upgrade proc...

As it stands right now the changes added to 1.9.4 cause Windows Server 2008 R2 to fail. Apparently the fix in: http://mantis.testlink.org/view.php?id=5209 doesn't work for us. I will try to trace it down but I keep getting PHP Fatal Error: Call to undefined function utf8_strtolower(). I have the req...

It appears in 1.9.4 you will need to edit the config.inc.php $tlCfg->log_path to be: $tlCfg->log_path = TL_ABS_PATH . 'logs' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR ; $g_repositoryPath = TL_ABS_PATH . "upload_area" . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR ; (this defaults it back to 1.9.3 behavior) If you would like to put it...

Might this have to do with the log file creation?? I have a sneaking suspicion that it might be trying to create a log file in a place it doesn't have access too. Check your settings and then see what's in your error log.

One last install instruction is to run this on your TestLink DB. (If you don't you can't add test cases or view them. I think this is probably fixed in 1.9.4).

ALTER TABLE dbo.tcversions ADD
status smallint NOT NULL CONSTRAINT DF_tcversions_status DEFAULT ((1))

These are my ldap settings for Active Directory use. Also note that I have $tlCfg->authentication['ldap_root_dn'] = 'DC=domain,DC=local'; . This would be if I was on something like: testlink.domain.local (Change accordingly). $tlCfg->authentication['method'] = 'LDAP'; /** LDAP authentication credent...

I forgot to mention you might have to play with the security settings on the wwwroot folder. If you see a blank page it's because certain files need to have modify access to the website. I know for a fact you will need to give read + write + execute abilities to the logs folder in order to troublesh...

Disregard my post above. Use this forum post: http://www.teamst.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=6952

I have seen lots of posts on getting help with Windows Server 2008. I recently had to setup a Windows Server 2008 R2 server with and Microsoft Sql Server 2008 (mssql) for using TestLink. This is a rough guide to basically get everything setup from a fresh install of the OS to running testlink. 1. Op...

In my experience w/ IIS and Testlink + MSSQL I had to use the cgi version. Use: http://blog.nettraptor.net/?p=64

Also if you need all the right php drivers and correct php.ini file setup send me a PM and i'll send a copy of my php folder.

we have been successfully using a product called TestShell that has an integration with QC, but we would like to build such an integration with TL. seems like what you've been doing is pretty much what we need...

Do you mean me?

I would move your mysql instance to a seperate machine and have 1 box dedicated as the application server and 1 for the DB. This will increase efficiency.
