[rt-users] Issue with Apache Config, first attempt at RT upgrade from 3.8.9 to 4.0.1

[Izz Abdullah]

Your location directive should point to /ticket:
<Location /ticket>
	Order allow,deny
	Allow from all
	Options +ExecCGI
	AddHandler fastcgi-script fcgi
</Location>

I would imagine this is the beginning of your issue.

Running RT at /ticket is documented at the bottom of the web_deployment.pod documentation.

If your config is showing an error, you need to show us the apache error logs to have any hope of knowing what is broken.
