much for responding.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately, no luck :(<br>
<br>
Rather than experiment with a million more combinations before
replying, I'll just post the current configuration (which I believe are
teh settings you advised) and say that I am now getting an internal
server error: The server encountered an internal error or
misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

In my previous post, I said get rid rid of the other Set($Web* syntax.
They are only confusing troubleshooting the issue and probably aren't
needed. If you do need specific web port and web regex overrides due
to your specific configuration, add them back in later once you've
gotten the basic install working.<br>

And what did the Apache error log state? More than likely, the
problematic syntax in RT_SiteConfig.pm caused the error. You also
claim everything was working with just the server name. What I don't
see in the above Apache config is where you load the FastCgi module,
amongst other things. What module are you using, mod_fastcgi? <br>
<br>
Lastly, mail sent directly to you bounced because your server rejected
it. You must have received my reply via the cc to the general list.
Please look at the mail server logs to see why it is/was rejecting mail.<br>

Thanks for getting back to me James. Previously, when someone gave me
some advice I would spend a great many hours troubleshooting further
when their suggestions didn't pan out. To be honest, my failure to get
RT running has been very humbling so if I follow someone's instructions
and they don't solve the problem (or make things worse) I just respond
with the results and hope for more guidance.<br>
<br>
I cannot fix this problem on my own. I feel extremely stupid because
of this. I'm an idiot. I cannot do this without some help. 'Nuff
said?<br>
<br>
I removed all of the other Web stuff as you instructed. No difference.<br>
<br>
Error log follows.<br>
<br>
I don't know how to answer your mod_fastcgi question except to say that
I followed the installation instructions religiously, that I have no
clue what fastcgi is and that below I have included two examples...
the first, which is based on your suggestions, which does not work.
The second, following the installation procedure instructions, which
does work but as I said, using the root URL. As you can see, the
configurations are nearly identical. Imagine my frustration, if you
can, that I have spent around ten days [unsuccessfully] troubleshooting
a problem that I isolated to two or three lines of code a week ago. I
have nearly 45 years of computer systems engineering experience and at
one time I actually was smart.<br>
<br>
Mail from SKYNETWEBBLACKHOLES is blacklisted on our mail server due to
them hosting spammer sites I presume. I added both of your e-mail
addresses to my whitelist. It's probably best to keep this thread
intact on the forum though. The first thing I did, before asking
anyone for help, was to search the database for similar threads and
found nothing helpful. Hopefully, if/when this gets solved, I will put
a clean configuration update for those who follow to use as a model.<br>
<br>
RT is most likely [temporarily] accessible from the Internet. If so,
you can see that <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://backup.easyrider.com">http://backup.easyrider.com</a> brings up RT nicely. All
attempts to run RT from <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://backup.easyrider.com/helpdesk">http://backup.easyrider.com/helpdesk</a> have so
far failed.<br>
