INTRODUCTION This is release 1.4.2 of the Perforce Defect Tracking Integration (P4DTI). The P4DTI connects your defect tracking system to Perforce, so that you don't have to switch between them and enter duplicate information about your work. It also links changes made in Perforce with defect tracker issues, making it easy to find out why a change was made, find the work that was done to resolve an issue, or generate reports relating issues to files or codelines. For supported configurations, contact information, and what's new in this release, see the release notes (release-notes.txt). If you are planning to modify, adapt, or extend the P4DTI, please download and unpack the P4DTI Integration Kit. See section 2.5. The readership of this document is anyone who wants to download and use the Perforce Defect Tracking Integration. This document is not confidential. 2. INSTALLATION 2.1. Upgrading from an old release of the P4DTI If you're running an old release of the P4DTI, then you must follow these steps when upgrading to this release: 1. Stop the replicator. 2. Make a copy of your configuration file config.py in a safe place. 3. (Bugzilla only.) Remove the old Bugzilla patch. Go to the Bugzilla installation directory and run the command: patch -R < /opt/p4dti/bugzilla-VERSION-patch where VERSION is the version of Bugzilla (2.10, 2.12, 2.14, or 2.14.1). (If you didn't install the Bugzilla integration as an RPM, then the patch file will be wherever you installed it, not necessarily in /opt/p4dti.) 4. If your old release was installed as an RPM, run the following command as root to uninstall it: rpm -e p4dti 5. Install the P4DTI as normal (see sections 2.2 to 2.4 below). 6. Copy your old configuration file as config.py in the new P4DTI installation directory. 2.2. Installing the TeamTrack integration On the TeamTrack server machine, run the "p4dti-teamtrack-1.4.2.exe" installer program that came with this document. This will unpack the integration. We recommend installing the integration in "C:\Program Files\P4DTI-1.4.2\" but you can ask the installer to put it somewhere else. Then consult the Administrator's Guide (installed by default in "C:\Program Files\P4DTI-1.4.2\ag\index.html") for further instructions. 2.3. Installing the Bugzilla integration on Linux The integration is distributed as an RPM called "p4dti-1.4.2-1.i386.rpm". Transfer this to the Bugzilla server machine, then run the following command as root: rpm -i p4dti-1.4.2-1.i386.rpm This will install the P4DTI files into /opt/p4dti and a startup script in the /etc/rc.d/init.d directory. Then consult the Administrator's Guide (installed as "/usr/doc/p4dti-1.4.2/ag/index.html") for further instructions. If you prefer not to use RPMs, you can follow the procedure in section 2.4. 2.4. Installing the Bugzilla integration on Solaris The integration is distributed as a gzipped tar file called "p4dti-bugzilla-1.4.2.tar.gz". Unpack this tarball on the Bugzilla server machine, using the command gunzip -c p4dti-bugzilla-1.4.2.tar.gz | tar xvf - Then consult the Administrator's Guide (installed as "p4dti-bugzilla-1.4.2/ag/index.html") for further instructions. 2.5. Installing the Bugzilla integration on Windows 2000 On the Bugzilla Windows 2000 machine, run the "p4dti-bugzillawin-1.4.2.exe" installer program that came with this document. This will unpack the integration. We recommend installing the integration in "C:\Program Files\p4dti-bugzillawin-1.4.2\" but you can ask the installer to put it somewhereelse. This will install the P4DTI files.Then consult the Administrator's Guide (installed as "docs/ag/index.html") for further instructions. The p4dti-kit-bugzillawin-1.4.2 includes bugzilla code that works with P4DTI. The complete bugzilla code for p4dti on Win2000 can be downloaded from <http://www.parrus.com/project/p4dti>. 2.6. Installing the integration kit The P4DTI integration kit is a complete set of P4DTI sources and documentation to enable third parties to develop new integrations. You should only install it if you are planning to modify, adapt, or extend the P4DTI. For Windows, the integration kit is distributed as the ZIP archive "p4dti-kit-1.4.2.zip". Unpack it using WinZip. For Bugzilla on Windows 2000, the integration kit is distributed as the ZIP archive "p4dti-kit-bugzillawin-1.4.2.zip". Upack it using WinZip. For Unix, the integration kit is distributed as the tarball "p4dti-kit-1.4.2.tar.gz". Unpack it using the command "gunzip -c p4dti-kit-1.4.2.tar.gz | tar xvf -". Then consult the Integration Kit readme file (p4dti-kit-1.4.2/kit-readme.txt) or (p4dti-bugzillawin-1.4.2/kit-readme.txt) for further instructions. A. REFERENCES None. B.
