[rt-users] Frustrated

Alirght guys/gals - I need some guidance.  Below is my config ..

RedHat 7.3 (fresh system)
Request Tracker: v. 2-0-13
Apache (RPM install): Apache/1.3.27 (Unix)  (Red-Hat/Linux)
MYSQL: (RPM install): MySQL version 3.23.54
DBI: DBI-1.13
HTML-Mason: HTML-Mason-1.04
Libapreq: libapreq-1.1

All other dependencies installed through CPAN.

Ran 'make testdeps' and reported all 'INSTALLED'.  However, when I run 'make 
install' I get the following error message.

-----------
[root at fusion rt-2-0-13]# make install
mkdir -p //opt/rt2/bin
mkdir -p //opt/rt2/WebRT/data
mkdir -p //opt/rt2/WebRT/sessiondata

I am, without question, uber-confused.  Spent the majority of my weekend with 
this to no avail.  Anybody have any insight?  I did read the comments in the 
lists archives, however, didn't quite find the answer.  Another interesting 
note - I did get the db to build once as 'rt2' however, it failed at the 'group 
name'.  After doing that, I cant drop the old rt2 db.  I get the following 
error:

-----------

[root at fusion rt-2-0-13]# make dropdb
/usr/bin/perl   tools/initdb 'mysql' '/usr' 'localhost' '' 'root' 'rt2' drop
Now dropping the RT2 database.
Enter the mysql password for root:

...weird because I am using root permissions.  I also cannot drop this db 
through mySQL - something whacked with the perm's.

OK ... so, that's that.  If anyone is interested in making a couple bucks and 
doing the install, this would also be an option as I've wasted tons of time 
messing with this.

ANY HELP would be oh so great.
