[rt-users] Two installations (404 on /index.html)

[Peter Burkholder]

There was a thread on this early last year.  See:
  http://lists.fsck.com/pipermail/rt-users/2002-February and look for the
Two Domains, One RT thread.

It seems the cleanest approach, that I'm using, is to use FastCGI instead of
mod_perl (or maybe even SpeedyCGI).

I use two installs of RT3 under /usr/local/rt-dpc and /usr/local/rt-dlese.
That's easier than sym-linking because the options to the ./configure script
will set variables deep inside RT.

My httpd.conf file looks like this (relevant section), and only requires one Apache.

<VirtualHost XX.XX.XX.XX>
    ServerName rt.dpc.example.edu
    DocumentRoot /usr/local/rt3-dpc/share/html
    AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
    FastCgiServer /usr/local/rt3-dpc/bin/mason_handler.fcgi
    Alias /NoAuth/images/ /usr/local/rt3-dpc/share/html/NoAuth/images/
    ScriptAlias / /usr/local/rt3-dpc/bin/mason_handler.fcgi/
    AddHandler fastcgi-script fcgi
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost XX.XX.XX.XX> 
    ServerName rt.example.org
    DocumentRoot /usr/local/rt3-dlese/share/html
    AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
    FastCgiServer /usr/local/rt3-dlese/bin/mason_handler.fcgi
    Alias /NoAuth/images/ /usr/local/rt3-dlese/share/html/NoAuth/images/
    ScriptAlias / /usr/local/rt3-dlese/bin/mason_handler.fcgi/
    AddHandler fastcgi-script fcgi
</VirtualHost>

> - copy FreeBSD patched version, changed the makefile and try to rebuild
> - copy FreeBSD's directory directly with the permissions.
