Configure Polarion

  1. Execute commands from installation temporary directory to create new Subversion repository:

    svnadmin create /opt/polarion/data/svn/repo –fs-type fsfs

    chown –R “webuser”:”webgroup” /opt/polarion/data/svn/repo

    The items webuser and webgroup are the user and group under them on the Apache server.

  2. Import either the production data or demo data configuration. You cannot import both. You can only execute both scripts on a fresh repository.

    [POLARION]/bin/polarion.init init

    or

    [POLARION]/bin/polarion.init demo

    Note:

    Parameters could be different on your OS. For example User and Group directive values from httpd.conf: The Group value in the standard Apache distribution is #-1, the numerical group ID -1, can't be used. Use apache/apache as User and Group instead.

    Warning:

    Once the ([POLARION]/bin/polarion.init init, or [POLARION]/bin/polarion.init demo) scripts have been executed, it is not possible to install demo data without deleting the subversion repository in /srv/polarion/data/svn/repo.

  3. Before using the system for production, see Securing the Polarion activation application and perform the recommended configuration as described.
