Odd, checking RT_Config.pm shows what I thought which was just straight ./configure with no arguments. More checks show I've never run httpd as anything but apache but the ./configure file from 4.04 release also assumes www. But it worked in my previous install. Here's what I did to get it going now, just for reference in case there are other CentOS users out there.
perl -MCPAN -e 'install CPAN' yum install gd gd-devel service httpd stop ./configure --with-web-group=apache make upgrade make upgrade-database The upgrade changed permissions on /opt/rt4/var/mason_data/obj so I ended up having to run chown -R apache:apache /opt/rt4/var/mason_data/obj to fix that, then rm -fr /opt/rt4/var/mason_data/obj and service httpd restart -----Original Message----- From: rt-users-boun...@lists.bestpractical.com [mailto:rt-users-boun...@lists.bestpractical.com] On Behalf Of Kevin Falcone Sent: Friday, October 26, 2012 12:28 PM To: rt-users@lists.bestpractical.com Subject: Re: [rt-users] chgrp error during make upgrade On Fri, Oct 26, 2012 at 04:49:57PM +0000, Pollard, James R wrote: > I'm attempting to upgrade RT 4.04 to 4.08 on CentOS 6.3 and running into a > permissions problem > since my webserver runs under the apache group as opposed to www which is > the assumption of > the upgrade script.

If you look at the top of /opt/rt4/etc/RT_Config.pm you'll see your incants from when you installed which should show you which arguments you gave to ./configure. ./configure --help will list the arguments for changing the users/groups. -kevin -------- We're hiring! http://bestpractical.com/jobs
