Subject: [rt-users] I am confused


It might be that I am not confused,  but instead am dense.   I hope that 
won't put you off giving me some advice.  Or a pointer to a RedHat how 
to...?

I have read the documents on how to install several times through.  I have 
read the recommendations as to what versions of what applications I should 
install.   I think this is the first part of my falling down.  I am wanting 
to install this on a RedHat 9.0 server.   The RedHat folk strongly suggest 
that I use RPMs for everything possible.  They install by default Apache 2.0

and Perl_Mod 1.99 (or something like that.)

The install docs say that I should by preference use apache 1.3 and perl_doc

1.?   Should I remove these RPMS and get old RPMs of these applications ?   
Can it work with the out of the box RH9 installation?  Are there any dire 
implications for anything else by doing that stuff?

Would anyone have RPMs that make this easy?    Would people be interested if

I made some?  (I have done it once, and am interested enough to do it again.

   Learning Curve!)


anyways,   I guess some feedback from someone who's set up an RT server on 
RH9 would be very appreciated here.

Thanks!

I've rebuilt RPMS of apache 1.3.27 and mod_perl 1.26 for RedHat 9. You would
also need RPMS of the db3 environment. These do not have to be installed
(db3-compat packages for db4 work) but RedHat must think they have been
installed for the apache RPM to be happy (use --justdb option for rpm
command). I didn't manage to get mod_perl working (I couldn't log in, I was
returned to the login screen every time I tried with no erros logged
anywhere) but RT is working fine with fastcgi and the suidperl RPM
installed.
