Without knowing what else you have on your system, versions of RT, perl
and apache, a rough guess would be that the user you run apache as
(normally a nobody user) cannot read /usr/local/rt2/bin/webmux.pl or a
file use'd from there (eg, config.pm).

You may have better luck initially by getting RT working in a seperate
apache instance (eg, seperate httpd.conf) before bringing it into your
normal configuration.
