Sean, in the install docs, there are a couple of tips about what you
need to do when you change the default install location. I went around
this by maintaining consisteny for the location. In your case, I would do

cd /apps
mkdir opt

cd /
ln -s /var/opt opt

then install RT to /opt/rt2

Try this and see if the perms issues persist. I am also a newbie to RT but from
the install docs, this is my first guess.


If not then

cd /apps

chown -R webserver_user:webserver_group rt/

I don't use slowlaris so it may differe, but I guess you get the point, yes??
