[rt-users] RT 3.4.1 on Tiger (Mac Os X 10.4)

[steverieger]

Hi all, I got rt 3.4.1 installed and running on the tiger release (its dues
in about a month), the only real problem I had was that rt could not under
any circumstances connect to mysql via the socket, I had to put the physical
ip address into SITE.pm which is below. Other than that I used fink to
installed OSXUserUtils from www.osxgnu.org so that we can add the rt group
via command line. Installed wget, and lynx for cpan. Perl is version 5.8.6
out of the box. Am using the /etc/httpd/sites/0000_any_00.conf file for rt,
and its working like a charm. Below are mt RT_SIte_Sonfig.pm and my
httpd.conf files. NOTE: make fixdeps did not install Apache::DBI, had do do
so manually.

If you have any questions please do let me know, or if you want a more
formal doc also let me know.

# $rtname is the string that RT will look for in mail messages to
# figure out what ticket a new piece of mail belongs to

# Your domain name is recommended, so as not to pollute the namespace.
# once you start using a given tag, you should probably never change it.
# (otherwise, mail for existing tickets won't get put in the right place

Set($rtname , ".......com");

# You should set this to your organization's DNS domain. For example,
# fsck.com or asylum.arkham.ma.us. It's used by the linking interface to
# guarantee that ticket URIs are unique and easy to construct.

Set($Organization , ".......com");

# $user_passwd_min defines the minimum length for user passwords. Setting
# it to 0 disables this check

# $Timezone is used to convert times entered by users into GMT and back
again
# It should be set to a timezone recognized by your local unix box.

# {{{ Incoming mail gateway configuration

# OwnerEmail is the address of a human who manages RT. RT will send
# errors generated by the mail gateway to this address.  This address
# should _not_ be an address that's managed by your RT instance.

# might be a loop to $RT::OwnerEmail

# to be part of mail loops.
# As it does this, it will try to be careful not to send mail to the
# sender of these messages

# Ticket 'Cc' watchers from the To and Cc lines of incoming messages

# RT automatically and you enable this option without modifying
# "RTAddressRegexp" below, you will get yourself into a heap of trouble.

# incoming email addresses.  In its simplest form,
# you can substitute the value in CanonicalizeEmailAddressReplace

passed to it

# message to $RTOwner.
#
# If you are not using $LookupSenderInExternalDatabase, this option
# has no effect.

# with it will get to the right place automatically.

# and comment mail tracked by RT, unless overridden by a queue-specific

# $MailCommand defines which method RT will use to try to send mail
# We know that 'sendmailpipe' works fairly well.
