Hi Sebastien,

Thank you very much - I completely forgot about installed earlier rt
3.6 from packages.

When I removed request-tracker3.6 rt3.6-apache2 rt3.6-clients
rt3.6-rtfm apache started - uff - thank you.
I don't had enough patience to trying to strace or sth.

Now I'm fighting with another issue[1], but I think, that I can
resolve this - now I have working Apache.


[1] probably 2 instances of Mason?
[Sun Nov  2 14:59:00 2008] [warning]: [Mason] Cannot resolve file to
component: /usr/local/rt-3/share/html/index.html (is file outside
component root?) at
/usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8/HTML/Mason/ApacheHandler.pm line 852.
(/usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8/HTML/Mason/ApacheHandler.pm:852)

Thank you, Sebastian
