[rt-devel] Caveats when using RedHat 9 for RT3

[Hulsman, MJ (Mike)]

In my RH9 environment it is working.
I installed RT3 on RH9 now 2 times, these are non production environments
yet.
I am running Apache 2.0.40 and mod_perl 1.99, the standard rpm's from RH9.
I only installed the needed perl modules with 'perl -MCPAN -e shell'
The LANG is set to en_US.UTF-8
