OT: SF look alike

[Jamie Bohr]

My company is splitting into 4 different companies and our internal Source
Forge server is going with on of them - ARG!  I really hate to see SF go, I
fought to keep and lost.  I have googled around and have found applications
that do this or that but non come even close to SF abilility.  SF rocks!

I am looking for a SF equivalent and was wondering if any one know of one.
I have run across Eventum and like it but it seems to be missing a few
features I need.  I would like something that can track issues, save
supporting documentation files, CVS like revision control, ability to update
issues via email, some type of reporting and if it could track tasks
separate from issues that would be icing on the cake.

http://gforge.org/ is a fork of the earlier open source version of SF.

Wow, GForge is really powerful.  It is exactly what I am looking for.

The install is complicated and will take some time.  One huddle I have to to
get around is the lack of access to DNS.  I can add host names but not
domains.  For example the server name could be gforge.mysite.mycompany.com,
the install document says to create lists.gforge.mysite.mycompany.com,
users.gforge.mysite.mycompany.com and
projects.gforge.mysite.mycompany.combut I can not add lists, users nor
projects because I can not add a domain.

Do you know where I can get RHEL RPM packages?  The site listed in the
install guide is an old version.

I am currently on page 11 of the install guide and it took me 3 hours to get
there.  Once I have it running it will very nice.

Thank you.  I will have to join a support list for I know I will have lots
of questions.

Thanks again,
    Jamie

You may not need to add a subdomain. Try adding hosts lists.gforge,
users.gforge, and projects.gforge.
