I installed review board on my system with all its dependencies. Now i need to set up a reviewboard site. I followed the instructions on the official website on setting up a site; but it did not work. Googled all day for 2 days with no help. The instructions are 98% same everywhere but doesnt work as it says on my system. The problem is - after setup on my localhost every site opens the reviewboard page, including this, except localhost itself. However the reviewboard page always reads

"ReviewBoard is taking a nap" I googled errors in apache error.log but didn't find anything helpful. Any help on what i m doing wrong here?

I was getting the same error, and in your reviewboard settings file (settings.py), turn DEBUG to True. This gives you a log more information on what is not working.

Either that or run the url where you are receiving the error and from the command line, type: tail -f /path/to/errorlog

this gives you the debug info.

And then post it here.

The issue with this is usually that there is something mis-configured or a package missing. I have had the same type of issue and the first step is to make sure that the python tools are working correctly.

If you see ImportError while trying to use pythonn or pip. The setuptools package may have been deleted or the link removed in the Python environment.

To fix the issue, run the setup script for setuptools:

curl https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap/ez_setup.py | python

In Debian or Ubuntu use 

curl https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap/ez_setup.py | sudo python
