[rt-users] PerlRequire /data/rt3/bin/webmux.pl

[Pavel Sidlo]

Hi,

I managed to solve exactly the same problem (in my point of view). It 
was caused by my mistake:
1. installation
CentOS 5.x with standard distribution installed Perl -> RT installation 
and CPAN installation of required Perl modules -> RT is working

2. OS update (CentOS 5.x -> CentOS 5.8)
- update of all packages including Perl - this was my point of failure 
because Perl was after update of RT broken

So I uninstalled all distribution Perl packages (forced uninstall so 
dependencies was broken), deleted remaining Perl directories content, 
then reinstalled all RPM packages and installed CPAN modules to satisfy 
RT requierements.

Finally I excluded all Perl packages from Yum updating (excludepks=perl* 
...).

Hope I will help.
