What did you change (I’m guessing a rebuild/reinstall/upgrade of Apache)?

Does /usr/local/share/rt3/html exist? Does the user you’re running
Apache as have access to that directory (and all those below it)?

             Please keep list traffic on the list.

Did you perhaps misspell it as the error message suggests you may have?

PerlRequire is an apache directive I know about. PerlRequired is not.

I did a reinstall of rt…Do I have to do anything extra? The reason why I did a reinstall is because apache2 was failing and still failing after I configure the httpd.conf file.-----Original Message-----

I thought it was misspelled originally, so I added the PerlRequire(d) and still failing… I have removed the d, but it still failed. What do I do to make it work?From: Jesse Vincent jesse@bestpractical.com

PerlRequire is provided by mod_perl. I would guess you didn’t
(re-)install mod_perl.
