[rt-users] Question about RedHat Installation

I performed a complete installation of RedHat 8.0 (all
packages) which included Apache, PHP and Perl.  I was under
the impression it loaded mod_perl.  

To make RT work, I downloaded the newest versions.
 Satisfied all dependencies on CPAN Perl modules and ran a
./config with changes to webuser/group to apache (default
name given by RH).  Everthing installed without error
except for a couple (2 out of 98) tests in HTML::Mason
module.  I also edited the httpd.conf to match the README,
however I may have bungled it.  For the most part I cut and
pasted, ommitting the 4 lines for perlmod2, and the
"servername".

The problem is the HTML doesn't parse.  I know Apache is
working because it responds to port 80, however the index
displays the 

"%# BEGIN LICENSE BLOCK %# %# Copyright (c) 1996-2003 Jesse
Vincent %# %# (Except where explictly superceded by other
copyright notices) %# %# This work is made available to you
under the..."
instead of processing it.  So I'm not sure if this is:
mod_perl problem (due to HTML::Mason complaints)
apache problem (due to my server not having a DNS-given
hostname)
or something with the build of RT.

I did search for the RTFM but it's not coming up.  I'm not
sure if the fsck.com site is down or if its a firewall
issue at my work.

I appreicate any help.
