Having trouble installing 3.7.85 on fc8

I’ve been able to get as far as the page that says:

You’re almost there!

You haven’t yet configured your webserver to run RT

You appear to have installed RT’s web interface correctly, but haven’t yet
configured your web server to “run” the RT server which powers the web
interface.

The next step is to edit your webserver’s configuration file to instruct it
to use RT’s mod_perl, fastcgi or speedycgi handler.

I’m trying to configure it to use mod_perl but having no luck so far.

Here’s my /etc/httpd/conf.d/rt3.conf. As far as I can tell, I’m referring to
mod_perl, and when I restart the httpd daemon, it tells me that mod_perl is
already loaded.

I’d appreciate any insight.

Thanks,

Are there any errors in the RT log? I found it useful to enable debug in a similar situation like you have:

Try adding the following lines in your RT_SiteConfig.pm if you don’t have them yet:

Set($LogToFile , ‘debug’);
Set($LogDir, ‘/opt/rt3/var/log’);
Set($LogToFileNamed , “rt.log”);

File “rt.log” must be writable by your http daemon.

Is anyone having an issue where linked tickets default to the incorrect
server? When I mouseover the links, instead of defaulting to
http://myserver/Ticket/Display.html?id=xxxx", they default to
http://localhost/Ticket/Display.html?id=xxxx". This only happens with linked
tickets. I can still go to the ticket by clicking on it in the queue, or in
any other Tickets pane. Clicking on them in the links pane, however, ends up
with an error because there is no web server on localhost. This issue can be
repeated from multiple clients, multiple OS’.

Any thoughts on why the server is being translated incorrectly?

Thanks,

If you go to “Configuration” → “Tools” → “System Configuration”, you
should be able to see all the loaded perl modules and RT variables.

RT::WebBaseURL
RT::WebURL

Does either one say “localhost”?

I can’t remember which one does what, but I put the following two in my
RT_SiteConfig.pm:

Set($WebURL, ‘http://myserver.fqdn/’);
Set($WebBaseURL, ‘http://myserver.fqdn/’);

Thanks,

Alan

Thanks Alan. That was exactly it. I needed to populate RT::WebBaseURL in
RT_SiteConfig.pm. I was a bit surprised because it only affected a small (to
me) section of the tickets, just parents/children under the Links pane, and
now it’s resolved.

Thanks again!
