[rt-users] Setting up Apache 1.3 for RT3 without virtual host

[Patrick LeBoutillier]

Hi,

Try removing the last / in the Alias (/rt instead of /rt/).
This worked for me (before I switched to Fast-CGI):

Alias /rt /usr/local/rt3/share/html
PerlModule Apache::DBI
PerlRequire /usr/local/rt3/bin/webmux.pl
<Location /rt>
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlHandler RT::Mason
</Location>
