[rt-users] Problems with apache configuration

Hi,

I just tried installing RT for the last two days on my local machine. 
The installation itself worked out fine (testdeps was a big help), but 
now I'm struggling with the apache configuration.

I'm using Mandrake 7.2 which has a perl enhanced apache installed as 
default. mod_perl seems to work fine (in fact, the error log says that 
it does). I added the lines listed in the installation guide to my 
httpd-perl.conf as listed below.

    #RT2 configuration
    PerlModule Apache::DBI
    PerlFreshRestart On
    PerlRequire /opt/rt2/bin/webmux.pl
    <Location /rt2>
        SetHandler perl-script
        PerlHandler RT::Mason
    </Location>


But that doesn't do all the trick. I added a link from my htdocs 
directory to /opt/rt2/WebRT/html (ln -s /opt/rt2/WebRT/html rt2). 
Calling http://localhost/rt2 gives me some plain text as result, but no 
web interface. I tried several versions of linking from the htdocs 
directory to rt2 but none of them worked.

Can anyone tell me what to do in order to get this running?

Thanks,

Thorsten
