Hello,

I'm also running RT4 ob Debian Squueze, indeed with Exim4.
Just a few thoughts after reading your post:

There seems to be a mistake in line 3: Isn't your queue called "test" and not "testt"?

The queue "support" you're trying to mail to is not defined in the /etc/aliases you've posted here.

As long as you don't serve any content in / (you currently serve the dafult "It works"-Page, you should turn off this directory. This has nothing to do with RT itself, but it's something I noticed. See also <http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/misc/security_tips.html>

Same here.

You're runnig RT4, so this directory does not exist. Your directory is /usr/share/request-tracker4.

Hi List

I've installed RT4 via the Debian package management system using the
following Wikia guide:
http://requesttracker.wikia.com/wiki/PostfixConfig ,  and operations
via the web interface seem  to be working fine. I am using
"apache2-modperl2.conf".

However, I am having an issue trying to get MailGate to work so that I
can log tickets via email. Most notably, my attempts to log tickets
via email fail with the following errors:

 From the Postfix logs:

----
Jan 28 15:27:22 centcomm postfix/local[5921]: A864E9AA9:
to=<t...@engeneon.net>, relay=local, delay=8903,
delays=8903/0.06/0/0.21, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary
failure. Command output: An Error Occurred =================  403
Forbidden )
----

 From the Apache logs:

----
[Mon Jan 28 01:47:22 2013] [error] [client xxx.yyy.zzz.www] client
denied by server configuration:
/usr/share/request-tracker4/html/REST/1.0/NoAuth/mail-gateway
----

I have reviewed and tested the solution on these 2 threads, without success:

1. http://lists.bestpractical.com/pipermail/rt-users/2009-April/058768.html
2. http://www.mentby.com/Group/rt-users/maillog-403-forbidden.html

Other than this I cannot find any other solutions on the internet
based on similar experiences from other users of RT4.

My questions are:

a) Is this a known issue with a known fix? If so, I'd appreciate a
pointer to it?
b) If not, is there some approach I could use to debugging this in
more detail so that I can pinpoint exactly what should be changed to
allow rt-mailgate to post messages to the REST API for Rt4 ?

Below are elements of my configuration for RT, mail and Apache:

I am using the following Apache configuration:

My /etc/aliases configuration looks like this:

---
test: "|/usr/bin/rt-mailgate --queue test --action correspond --url
http://centcomm.engeneon.net/rt";
test-comment: "|/usr/bin/rt-mailgate --queue testt --action comment
--url http://centcomm.engeneon.net/rt
---

A manual test of the rt-mailgate script produces the following:

---
root@centcomm:~# cat testfile.txt |/usr/bin/rt-mailgate --queue
support --action correspond --url http://centcomm.engeneon.net/rt
An Error Occurred
=================

403 Forbidden

My apache2-modperl2.conf looks like this:

---
PerlSetEnv RT_SITE_CONFIG /etc/request-tracker4/RT_SiteConfig.pm
Alias /rt /usr/share/request-tracker4/html
<Location /rt>
   SetHandler modperl
   PerlResponseHandler Plack::Handler::Apache2
   PerlSetVar psgi_app /usr/share/request-tracker4/libexec/rt-server
</Location>
     <Location /rt/NoAuth>
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
     Satisfy any
     </Location>
<Location /rt/REST/1.0/NoAuth>
     Order Allow,Deny
     Allow from all
</Location>
<Directory /usr/share/request-tracker4>
     Options Indexes MultiViews
     AllowOverride AuthConfig
     Order allow,deny
     Allow from all
</Directory>
<Perl>
   use Plack::Handler::Apache2;
   
Plack::Handler::Apache2->preload("/usr/share/request-tracker4/libexec/rt-server");
</Perl>

My 000-default apache configuration file  looks like this:
