      It almost looks like RT is trying to connect before MySQL is
      loaded.  Also - I find that the connection intermittently works
      then fails.  One minute I'm looking at my new RT tickets then on a
      page refresh I am back to the RT setup screen because it thinks
      there is no database configured.<br>
      <br>
      I'm at a loss here and really need to get this new install
      stable.  Any help is appreciated.<br>

        The database name, user and password are all correct in
        RT_SiteConfig.pm and I can connect using those credentials from
        a shell on that box and can access the right database.<br>
        <br>
        Any suggestions why I'm seeing  (using password: NO) in my
        logs?  I get something similar at startup/shutdown.<br>
