[rt-users] mkdir /other/rt3/var/mason_data/obj: Permission denied

[Frans Lawaetz]

Hi,

I know this isn't the first time this thread has been created but as I've
not found a solution in the mail archives I can't think of anything but to
open it anew.

I've been trying to get RT running on an up2date Red Hat 8.0 installation
with little luck.
I'm running httpd-2.0.40-11.5 with mod_perl-1.99_05-3, both RPM
installations (all-in-all its a fairly vanilla system).

As previous users have also attempted I tried creating the directory in
question and gave it 777 permissions all to no avail.  It seems like apache
is denying the module rights to perform modifications to the filesystem
rather than their being any permission problem with the fs itself.

I can't think of anything else to try so any input would be greatly
appreciated!

Thanks,
Frans
