Package: request-tracker3.4 Severity: wishlist Here is a collection of notes regarding the installation of rt3.4 on apache2 using fastcgi, mysql, and testing distribution.
With some editing, this might be a useful addition to the rt3.4 package for your next upload. Maybe call it apache2-fastcgi.howto.txt - apt-get install request-tracker3.4 will pull in a bunch of apache1 dependancies, no negative effects seen against my apache2 install. - Install the missing dependancies: apt-get install libapache2-mod-fastcgi libcgi-fast-perl - enable the fastcgi module in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled cd /etc/apache2/mods-enabled ln -s /etc/apache2/mods-available/fastcgi* . - In /etc/request-tracker3.4/apache-fastcgi.conf comment out this line #FastCgiIpcDir /var/run/fastcgi - chmod a+r /etc/request-tracker3.4/RT_SiteConfig.pm (Would recomment further contemplation of this, if done on an externally accessible production internet server instead of a intranet or test server) Note this lets anyone who and log in, read the mysql uname/pword, which may or may not be a problem depending on individual situation. - Add file /etc/apache2/conf.d/rt # Request Tracker /etc/apache2/conf.d/rt Include /etc/request-tracker3.4/apache-fastcgi.conf RewriteRule ^/rt$ /rt/ RewriteRule ^/rt/(.*)$ /usr/share/request-tracker3.4/html/$1 # - Install mysql, read /usr/share/doc/request-tracker3.4/INSTALL.Debian.gz - To fix the strange syslog bug, add these two lines to /etc/request-tracker3.4/RT_SiteConfig.pm # Mod for recent Debian syslog @LogToSyslogConf = ( socket => 'inet' ) unless (@LogToSyslogConf); - Restart apache2 and it should work! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
