Verify your TeamForge 8.0 installation

Congratulations: you have just installed your TeamForge 8.0 site. Now you can apply some finishing touches and make sure everything is running smoothly.

  1. Turn on SSL for your site by editing the relevant variables in the site-options.conf file. See Set up SSL for your TeamForge site for details.
    Note: If SSL is enabled for any box belonging to your site, it must be enabled for all of them.
  2. Log into your site as the administrator. The value of the DOMAIN variable in the site-options.conf file is the URL to log into.
  3. Install your license key. See Supply your TeamForge license key from Teamforge user interface.
  4. To verify that the tracker initial load (triggered through TrackerInitialJob) completed successfully, run the following SQL from [RUNTIME_DIR]/scripts/psql-reporting-wrapper or by selecting the Datamart option on the System Tools > Ad Hoc Database Query page in the TeamForge web interface.
    • select * from etl_job where job_name ='tracker_initial_etl'
    The status column should have a value of 1.
  5. Install a project template. TeamForge comes with a sample project template that showcases some of the platform's most interesting features. Site administrators and project managers can use this template to jump-start projects without a lot of manual setup steps. See Install project templates manually.
    Note: This procedure is recommended, but not required.
  6. Create a sample project. See Create a TeamForge project.
  7. Write a welcome message to your site's users. See Create a site-wide broadcast.
Now that you have successfully installed your TeamForge site in its basic configuration, you can use the instructions under Maintain your TeamForge 8.0 site to help keep your site going.
