Package: redmine
Version: 6.0.5+ds-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
This is likely a local issue but in case it is not I open this report.
As reported in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1120894
when I symlinks my /usr/share/redmine/plugins/<x> (not
/usr/share/redmine/plugins folder
but the plugin folders inside) into /var/lib/redmine/default/plugins (ie
REDMINE_INSTANCE/plugins)
their files are loaded twice and as on is a derivative of Rails Concern it
aborts loadig the redmine
app (tested in unicorn with a working_direcoty set to /usr/share/redmine. Also
tested with rackup from /usr/share/redmine)
I fixed /usr/share/redmine/instances which now is a symlink to /var/lib/redmine
as it is supposed to.
when I symlink additionals and redmine_git_hosting plugins from
/usr/share/redmine/plugins/<x>
to /var/libredmine/default/plugins, restarting unicorn redmine errors out with:
phn@uruk:/var/lib/redmine/default/plugins$ tail -f
/var/log/redmine/default/unicorn.stderr.log

The issue is that the plugins files are loaded twice in unicorn. Once from
/usr/share/redmine/plugins/redmine_git_hosting
and a second time from
/usr/share/redmine/instances/default/plugins/redmine_git_hosting.
Note that if I dod not put symlink to the pluygins ins the
REDMINE_INSTANCE/plugins folder unicorn load fine but no plugin is activated
in redmine at least in the adminsitraction dashboard > plugins.
If I remove the /var/lib/redmine/default/plugins directory the plugins are
available at runtime in redmine.
I don't know how autoloading happens but it seems the fact
/usr/share/redmine/instances is a symlink to /var/lib/redmine/default/plugins
which itslef holds symlinks to the /usr/share/redmine/plugins/<x> plugfin
folder leads to them being autoloaded twice. Once from
/usr/share/redmine/plugins/redmine_git_hosting and a second time from
/usr/share/redmine/instances/default/plugins/redmine_git_hosting a symlink.
I probably have something local that leads to this double autoload but I have
no clue what it can be.
I only have one instance enabled (default).
I have leftover files from a run where I tested adding a second test instance
via dpkg-reconfigure redmine. I removed this "test"
instance entry from a followup dpkg-reconfigure redmine call.

I am going to close this bug report as there has been no response to my
previous two emails. My assumption is this has something to do with the way
Unicorn works or is configured. I do not personally have any experience with
using Unicorn. If anyone is still experiencing this issue feel free to reopen
the bug report.
