Follow instructions in last half of "Configuration" section and 
"Setting Up the Web Interface" sections of Installation Manual on the
Wiki.

Namely, install RT to some subdirectory of your document root, e.g. rt
so that need to use URL http://www.your.web.server/rt to access rt.
In the RT_SiteConfig file, set WebPath to that subdirectory, eg "/rt"


If you are not doing VirtualHosting, you can drop the VirtualHost wrapper
directives.

Remove this Document Root line

and replace with (change /rt to the WebPath you used)
Alias /rt "/usr/local/rt3/share/html"

The rewrite and set/perlHandler directives should go in a location block
(inside the virtual server block if using that), e.g.
     <location /rt>
  	AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
 	RewriteEngine On
 	RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ $1/index.html
 	SetHandler perl-script
 	PerlHandler RT::Mason
     </location>

Drop the <Location /> block, as is in the <Location /rt> block now
