Hi,
I followed all those steps to install the RT 3.8 on Ubuntu but at the end the RT 3.6 site login page is responding from apache.
I have the following line in apache default config file:
Include "/etc/request-tracker3.6/apache2-modperl2.conf
In RT 3.8 how can i specify to apache the RT 3.8 site? Whats the line or configuration i need?
TIA,
Filipe

Hi Shawn,
I'd suggest just using the Debian packages. It is highly likely that
people will continue to package it up. If you have a search in the
mailing list archives from last month for the subject "Rt3.8 package for
debian" you'll find some instructions on where to find some prebuilt
packages and where to find the required dependencies.
There is also soon going to be a version of the 3.8.1 package uploaded
to the Debian Experimental repository (not my package, but based on it
in part).
Cheers!

I realize it's a Debian package, but would I want to install this? My concern is what if the maintainer one day decides to stop supporting it? Would an Ubuntu package be more reliable?
