Per https://www.howtoinstall.co/en/ubuntu/xenial/redmine installing redmine is as simple as apt-get install redmine. And it does appear to be installed. However I'm unable to access it or see it in the list of processes. How do I go about starting it?

I did try installing apache2 first, and apache2 works, but redmine is nowhere to be found.

Thanks!

From https://wiki.debian.org/redmine

Install your database, e.g. postgresql (or don't, if you want to use sqlite)

apt install postgresql # or mysql-server

Install redmine with support for your database of choice

apt install redmine redmine-pgsql # or redmine-mysql, or redmine-sqlite

Database configuration can be fully automated, courtesy of dbconfig-common.

Configure web server

apt install apache2 libapache2-mod-passenger
cp /usr/share/doc/redmine/examples/apache2-passenger-host.conf \ 
  /etc/apache2/sites-available/redmine.conf
edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/redmine.conf
a2enmod passenger
a2ensite redmine.conf
service apache2 reload

Using passenger (libapache2-mod-passenger) is usually the easiest way. For using in a domain shared with other applications, base your config on /usr/share/doc/redmine/examples/apache2-passenger-alias.conf instead.

You can then log into Redmine http://servername (ServerName that you put in /etc/apache2/sites-available/redmine.conf and in your DNS or hosts file) with the following default admin account:

username: admin password: admin
