Hi,
Can someone please walk me thru installing Bugzilla on CentOS 5.5 step by step? I want to learn how to install on my own pc, cause I will have to install it later on this semester for my professor.

Thanks,

Greetingz!

Well, judging from this;

Code:

luser@lhost$ sudo yum list | grep -i bugzilla
bugzilla.noarch                            3.2.4-2.el5                 epel     
bugzilla-contrib.noarch                    3.2.4-2.el5                 epel     
bugzilla-doc.noarch                        3.2.4-2.el5                 epel     
python-bugzilla.noarch                     0.5.1-2.el5                 epel     
report-config-bugzilla-redhat-com.x86_64   0.7-1.el5                   epel     
report-plugin-bugzilla.x86_64              0.7-1.el5                   epel     
luser@lhost$

I'd give "yum install bugzilla" a shot. Then I'd hit these sites for tips, tweaks, and any necessary troubleshooting;

Bugzilla might not always be the latest stable in the yum repositories. You may want to look into the documentation here: http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/

You need Apache and MySQL servers running for bugzilla though. And there are a lot of perl modules that are required to be installed for proper functioning of bugzilla. There is a script there which can help you install the modules.
