Redmine backlogs : could not locate gemfile

Question

I installed redmine on my server. Redmine is installed in /usr/share/redmine.

I try to install redmine backlogs using the installation guide) As mentionned in the guide, I execute the following commands:

cd /usr/share/redmine
bundle exec rake redmine:backlogs:install

It fails with the message: Could not locate Gemfile

It looks like the bundle command is waiting for a gemfile in the directory but this file is missing.

Do you have any idea how to solve this problem?

EDIT: Note that I installed Redmine using the Wheezy backports. Maybe we cannot install plugins when Redmine has been installed from the Debian package....

Thank you

After installng Redmine did you manage to start it and connect to the web page? — gotva, Aug 11 '14 at 18:25
Did you manage to solve this? I am running into the same issue... — Gerard van den Bosch, Sep 26 '14 at 11:43
No i did not. I gave up and installed a software that does not depend on redmine. I installed icescrum. — ltu, Sep 27 '14 at 13:50

That url is for sale now, your best bet is to build it from source from the most currently updated fork from that project which is: https://github.com/ahelten/redmine_backlogs

Try this:

cd ~/redmine/plugins
git clone https://github.com/ahelten/redmine_backlogs.git
git checkout feature/v1.0.6_inherit_fields

Install libs and gems needed by backlogs

sudo apt-get install libxslt-dev libxml2-dev
sudo gem install nokogiri -v '1.5.11'
bundle install

Test Your Work

bundle exec rails server webrick -e production

NOTE: this assumes that you have git and whatever other development tools and gems you need installed. If you fail to install a gem, scroll up and read the output, chances are you need to add a package mentioned in the output first (sudo apt-get install foo). If you fail to find a gem you are either building in a directory without a Gemfile or the gem the gem file wants doesn't exist ... search rubygems.org if that happens)
