Redmine 4 is knocking on the door, and it’s going to drop support for anything below 2.2.2. Unfortunately, EL 7 only has 2.0.0, so you either wait until EL 8 releases and hope it comes with 2.2.2+, or you migrate from the packaged Ruby to something else. I’m picking RVM, because reasons.

Preamble After doing this for Linode, it’s time to also do Vultr. If you follow me, you already know that Vultr is one of my 3 favorite VPS providers. The great thing about Vultr is that it also allows for custom ISOs, so you can have fancy things like a Btrfs root filesystem, which in […]
If you haven’t done so yet, complete the tasks explained in Using SSH Key Pairs on Windows. If you fail to do so, you’ll be locked out of your CentOS instance! Fire up Pageant, load your private key, and log into your SSH host. Almost all of the commands will require root privileges, so first […]
