Redmine is a flexible open-source project management and issue-tracking web application built on Ruby on Rails, running under the Puma application server with a bundled PostgreSQL database. Unlike bare Redmine AMIs that ship with the well-known default admin/admin login, an exposed database, and plain HTTP, this Lynxroute build is ready out of the box: the default admin password is rotated to a unique value at first boot, PostgreSQL is bound to localhost only, an Nginx TLS reverse proxy serves HTTPS on 443 with Certbot pre-installed, UFW firewall pre-configured, and a CIS Level 1 hardened Ubuntu 24.04 LTS base.
GPL-2.0 license - fully auditable, no vendor lock-in.
Overview
This is a repackaged software product wherein additional charges apply for hardening, security configuration, and support.
WHAT IS REDMINE
Redmine is a mature, flexible open-source project management and issue-tracking web application written in Ruby on Rails (Rails 7.2), served by the Puma application server behind an Nginx reverse proxy and backed by PostgreSQL. A single instance manages multiple projects and subprojects with per-project role-based access control, issue tracking with fully customizable trackers, statuses and workflows, Gantt charts and a calendar, time tracking, per-project wikis, forums and document management, news and file repositories, multiple-database SCM integration (Git, Subversion, Mercurial), email notifications, a REST API, LDAP-ready authentication, and multi-language support. Project data, issues, attachments and history persist in the bundled PostgreSQL database within your own AWS account - a self-hosted alternative to hosted project-tracking SaaS, with no per-seat fees. GPL-2.0 license, no vendor lock-in.
WHAT THIS AMI ADDS
Security hardening:
- Default admin password rotated to a unique random value at first boot (no admin/admin)
- Per-instance PostgreSQL password and Rails secret generated at first boot
- PostgreSQL bound to 127.0.0.1 only; the Puma application server listens on a localhost socket
- Nginx TLS reverse proxy on 443; HTTP on 80 redirects to HTTPS
- Certbot pre-installed - trusted HTTPS with Let's Encrypt in one command
- UFW firewall - ports 22, 80, 443 only
- fail2ban, AppArmor
- CVE scan - every image is scanned for vulnerabilities before release
OS hardening (CIS Level 1):
- CIS Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Level 1 benchmark applied via ansible-lockdown
- auditd, SSH hardening, Kernel hardening, IMDSv2 enforced
Compliance artifacts:
- SBOM - CycloneDX 1.6 at /etc/lynxroute/sbom.json
- CIS Conformance Report at /etc/lynxroute/cis-report.html
- CIS Tailored Profile at /usr/share/doc/lynxroute/CIS_TAILORED_PROFILE.md
Highlights
- Redmine security baked in: default admin password rotated at first boot, per-instance database password and Rails secret, PostgreSQL bound to localhost only, Nginx TLS on 443 with Certbot pre-installed.
- CIS Level 1 hardened Ubuntu 24.04 LTS: auditd, fail2ban, AppArmor, SSH key-only, IMDSv2 enforced. CVE-scanned before every release. SBOM (CycloneDX) and CIS Conformance Report included.
- Full project management suite: issue tracking with custom workflows, Gantt charts, time tracking, per-project wikis and forums, SCM integration, and a REST API. GPL-2.0 license - fully auditable, no vendor lock-in.

Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
Dimension | Cost/hour |
|---|---|
t3.medium Recommended | $0.05 |
m6i.large | $0.05 |
m6i.xlarge | $0.05 |
t3.large | $0.05 |
t3.small | $0.03 |
Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour based on the EC2 instance size you choose. All five options run the same hardened Redmine image; they differ only in compute capacity. The t3.small, t3.medium, and t3.large are burstable instances suited to lighter or variable workloads, while the m6i.large and m6i.xlarge deliver steady, general-purpose performance for heavier use. Pricing scales with instance size, so you pick the option that matches your expected load. Billing is usage-based, charged per hour, with no upfront commitment.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Every instance runs a CIS Level 1 hardened Ubuntu 24.04 LTS base with the Redmine project management and issue tracker installed. It ships with a firewall, intrusion prevention, kernel hardening, and a CVE scan report. Unique credentials generate at first boot, so no shared passwords or defaults exist.
The software is metered per instance-hour while running. A stopped instance does not accrue hourly software charges. Underlying AWS storage fees may still apply to the disk of a stopped instance, but the Redmine software licence meters only running time.
Both bill per instance-hour. The t3.small, t3.medium, and t3.large are burstable, building credits during low activity and spending them during spikes, which suits variable loads. The m6i.large and m6i.xlarge give steady general-purpose compute for continuous heavy use. You pick one size; that size sets your hourly rate.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Additional details
Usage instructions
- Launch instance (t3.medium recommended; t3.small minimum)
- Open Security Group - allow TCP 80 and TCP 443 from 0.0.0.0/0, TCP 22 from your IP
- SSH: ssh -i key.pem ubuntu@<PUBLIC_IP>
- Wait 1-3 minutes for first-boot database setup to complete
- Read credentials: sudo cat /root/redmine-credentials.txt
- Open https://<PUBLIC_IP> in your browser - accept the self-signed certificate warning
- Log in as admin with the rotated password from the credentials file
The default admin/admin password is rotated to a unique value at first boot and saved, together with the PostgreSQL password, to /root/redmine-credentials.txt. For production use, point a domain at the instance and get a trusted certificate: sudo certbot --nginx -d your.domain.com (Certbot is pre-installed). The REST API is disabled by default; enable it under Administration > Settings > API.
