ERROR: Can't call method "handle_request"

Hi, I’ve installed rt in a RH8.0, perl 8, etc…

After starting apache I get the following error:

Can’t call method “handle_request” on an undefined value at
/usr/local/apps/rt-2-0-15-I-3/installed/bin/webmux.pl line 170.

What have I done wrong this time? RT used to work just fine…

You of course mean perl 5.8(.0), yes?

After starting apache I get the following error:

Can’t call method “handle_request” on an undefined value at
/usr/local/apps/rt-2-0-15-I-3/installed/bin/webmux.pl line 170.

Having run into this just recently, you probably have an old DBI.pm from a
previous version of perl lying around.

Yep… :slight_smile:

Err… this is the DBI.pm thast came with RH8… should I install other?

I’m thinking about reverting to good old perl5.6… and instaling all
the modules by hand. It used to work that way…

Any suggestions?
