[rt-users] Install RT 1.0.7

[Markus Hummel]

Actually the idea of leaving the old system 1 for 1 was. Not carrying out any change at the contents and at the appearance.
But if it cannot be solved differently, of course this is also worth a consideration.

So remain summarizing left:
a.) Use separate virtual machine.
b.) Convert RT to a newer version.
c.) Use an old(er) OS.

These are my possible options, aren't they? No (easy) way to fix the perl problem and correct something on perl or RT? I think the problem is the mysql emulation, isn't it?

Best regards,
Markus Hummel

Why not use the RT upgrade tools to move your RT1 tickets to a newer RT?
