How to deploy bugzilla with psgi on dotcloud?

Question

I want to deploy bugzilla on dotcloud, but the perl environment is psgi.

The doc said I must use "modules to add PSGI hooks to legacy CGI or FastCGI applications".

I found CGI::Emulate::PSGI module but could not figure out how to do it.

I am a Python programmer and have no experience in Perl.

Answer 1

I did not try it but This sounds like what you want. Its bugzila deployed to a cloud stackato. You can join Stackato then deploy the bugzilla sample. https://github.com/Stackato-Apps/bugzilla

Answer 2

I had partial success with bugzilla-4.0.2 on a local openSUSE. I don't think Bugzilla will be suitable for cloud deployment in the short term because of its large amount of manual setup necessary. Follow the instructions referenced from docs/en/html/index.html, then run

plackup -MPlack::App::CGIBin -e'Plack::App::CGIBin->new(root => ".")->to_app'

and visit http://localhost:5000/index.cgi. The static files are missing, e.g. stylesheets. Something like along the lines of

plackup -MPlack::Builder -MPlack::App::Directory -MPlack::App::CGIBin -e 'builder {
    mount "/" => Plack::App::CGIBin->new(root => ".")->to_app;
    mount "/" => Plack::App::Directory->new({ root => "." })->to_app;
}'

is necessary, but mounting to the same path actually does not work in Plack 0.9985, or I'm doing it wrong.
