[rt-users] Moving RT off of the root URL

[Frank Saxton]

I have a new installation of RT 3.6.1 on RHEL 4.0 that is working 
perfectly, as near as I can tell.  It's a 99% vanilla install with 
the only difference being that I migrated my RT 3.0.1 database onto 
the new server.

Apparently, there has been a change since RT 3.4 that makes it more 
difficult to move RT from http://host.com/ to something like http://host.com/rt

Used to be, a simple alias in httpd.conf would do it.

It seems to me that having the RT ScriptAlias pointing to root is a 
fundamentally bad idea unless RT is the only apache site that is 
going to run on the server.  In my case, doing this broke all of the 
PHP and HTML sites!

I presume someone has already solved this problem.  I would be 
grateful if someone could point me to the detailed information on 
what I need to do to make this change.  I have spent the better part 
of the last weekend experimenting with RT_SiteConfig.pm and 
httpd.conf without much success.  I've gotten it to mostly move over 
but there were functions that still weren't right.  A complete, 
detailed, tested. "official" procedure would be hugely appreciated at 
this point

TIA!
