Kenneth,
So I ended up building a new server (VM) and installing RT 3.6 with
apt-get. Once I had RT installed and running, I restored the old RT
database over the new one (which of course broke the features I needed).
Then I copied over the upgrade directory that I needed to my home dir
and ran the rt-setup-database (from the new server
/usr/sbin/rt-setup-database) against the 3.5.1 upgrade directory that I
had just copied to my home dir. It ran fine. Now I have the upgraded DB
with the features I need.
Thanks for all the help. Here is my exact command:
root@<myserver>:/home/trentt/BUILD/rt3.6# /usr/sbin/rt-setup-database
-dba root -prompt-for-dba-password -action insert -datadir
/home/trentt/BUILD/rt3.6/etc/upgrade/3.5.1
In order to create or update your RT database,this script needs to
connect to your mysql instance on localhost as root.
Please specify that user's database password below. If the user has no
databasepassword, just press return.
Password:
Creating predefined searches...237.238.239.done.
Done setting up database content.

Trenton,
I don't know how MySQL is set up.
