[rt-users] Standalone network installation

[Mchenry, Glenn]

Yeah, I'm unable to connect it to the outside world.  Offline can you please point me to where I can lookup how to pull individual packages from CPAN?  Also, I have to worry about their individual dependencies as well correct?  I can download whatever from the outside, burn it on a cd, and bring that into the standalone network.  Thanks RT.

If external connectivity (even temporarily) isn't an option, you might look at the output of 'make testdeps' and then manually download and install each of the required perl modules. Keep in mind this would be a long and painful process (due to dependencies).

If you can connect the node to the outside (or migrate it) temporarily, that would solve a number of issues you're bound to run into.

Unfortunately, 3.8.1 requires a number of perl modules, that as far as I am aware are not available via RPM. I'm running 3.8.1 on CentOS 5.2 and found that several modules had to be pulled from CPAN.

I'm having problems properly setting up RTv3.8.1 on RHEL5.1 that's part of a network with no outside connection.  I've tried reading through the wiki as well as the mailing lists but still am not able to understand what I need to do.

I'm trying to get RT v3.8.1 up and running on a standalone network.

So far I have installed RHEL5.1, installed Apache 2.2, installed MySql 5.0, and ran the ./configure script. When I run make testdeps, it lists many that are not there.  I then try to run make fixdeps but it tries to go out to CPAN.  It can't do that because it's being installed on a standalone network. I tried using JWhite3's package but it requires access to RHN which is not a viable option for me.

I'm using RT v3.8.1, Apache 2.2, MySql 5.0, modperl 2, RHEL 5.1.

Can someone please point me to where I need to go to get this accomplished?

Thanks for your time and sorry for the lack of knowledge.
