Files are there but apache won't start

RT Users
1

I realize this is more an apache question, but since I am getting errors
trying to get rt to run I thought I would post this.

I am setting up apache 1.3.28. It starts up fine until I add my rt alias to
httpd.conf

Alias /rt2 /opt/rt2/WebRT/html
PerlRequire /opt/rt2/bin/webmux.pl
<Location /rt2>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler RT::Mason

I get the following error after two new installs of apache. Testdeps shows
everything is up to par. I can browse to the files it says are not there.
This is installed on Fedora core 1. Any ideas how to resolve this?

[root@support conf]# /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start

Hey Raymond,

Did you do a make testdeps, then a make fixdeps before you did a make
install?

Yes, everything checked out. I had to manually install Apache::Cookie ( I
saw 2 lines about invalid pointer errors, but it installed).
CPAN did the rest.

Hmm… Just for grins–can you do a which perl and make sure RT is pointing to the right one? (I know on FreeBSD there’s the “system” and “port” version of Perl, which are in different directories.)

which perl gives me /usr/bin/perl

Another thing… In my rt2 setup I have:

PerlModule Apache::DBI
PerlRequire /sw/rt/bin/webmux.pl
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler RT::Mason
Options ExecCGI FollowSymLinks

It took those lines, but gives me the same error

including libapreq.so? Try reinstalling Apache::Request perhaps?
