Problems installing - juggernaut: command not found

[Alex]

I'm trying to install Taskboard and have made some progress, but am
now having problems starting juggernaut. Mostly, I'm following your
Wiki guide:

https://github.com/CognifideLabs/taskboard/wiki/Setting-up-Taskboard

...except that I've been using Ubuntu (10.10) packages where I can.

After running "sudo gem install juggernaut" to install juggernaut,
when I run the juggernaut command "juggernaut -c config/
juggernaut.yml" I get this error:

juggernaut: command not found.

Looking on Google (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5060922/
juggernaut-command-not-found), I found a suggestion that I needed to
install "maccman-juggernaut", but when I tried this I had knock-on
problems installing it's "hoe" dependency which required RubyGems >
1.4. As you recommend RubyGems 1.3.5, I thought you must have some
other solution.

Any help would be appreciated - I suspect it is a simple solution that
I'm missing due to my Ruby ignorance.

Thanks, Alex.

Unfortunately the Taskboard project is abandoned since over a year
now. Our teams moved to use other tools and we didn't have resources
to develop Taskboard or even to keep it up-to-date.
Probably that's the reason why our documentation may not be accurate anymore.

When it comes to juggernaut - this project is far from being
abandoned. It developed and changed a lot (now it's based on node.js)
so it's quite likely that our simple install commands don't work
anymore.

Juggernaut we were working on was version 0.5.7. At least that's what
I have on my old Taskboard development machine.
So what you can try to do is to force installing of this old version
(hoping it is still available).

First you will need to uninstall any installed versions of juggernaut,
and then do something like:
sudo gem install -v=0.5.7 juggernaut

It's just from the top of my head, I'm not 100% sure that this command
is valid. But this basically should force installation of old
juggernaut.
But as it may still depend on other old gems it may not be that easy.

I hope it will help you a bit.
And thanks for the interest in Taskboard. It's nice to hear that we
are not the only one who find it useful.

Cheers,

Hi Bartek,

Thanks for the information - I'll give this a go.

Do you have any recommendations on alternatives to Taskboard? Although I like what I've seen of Taskboard, I'm not sure I want to rely on it if it has been abandoned (although I'll still see if I can get it working).

Thanks, Alex.

I don't know any fully free or open source alternative. But when we
were doing some research around 'taskboard-like' projects we came
across AgileZen http://agilezen.com/ and LeanKit
http://leankitkanban.com/ . They are both hosted solution with
subscription plans but they have a free option (for single project and
with some restrictions). You can check if it suits you.

On the other hand even that our team is not developing Taskboard
anymore there were some people interesting in moving it forward. I'm
sure there was a guy trying to port in to Rails 3. I don't really
follow what is going on with it but you can check our network on
github https://github.com/CognifideLabs/taskboard/network to see if
there are any active forks of Taskboard. Maybe those guys will be able
to help you more.

Cheers,
Bartek

Thanks again!

FYI, I got taskboard working, but I had to fully-qualify the path to juggernaut:

        /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/juggernaut -c config/juggernaut.yml

- I wasn't aware of this hidden bin directory. I installed rubygems via the package manager, so maybe it should have added this directory to my path.

Thanks, Alex.
