Good afternoon,

I’ve found some installers on the Internet for RT 3, but none for RT 4.

I’d like to setup RT4 on Windows with XAMPP.

(I’m currently attempting to set it up through Cygwin)

How do I install RT 4 on Windows?

Thanks for all suggestions,

I would imagine that the only way to do something like this would to use
a VM. If it would work at all. VMWare would be the only way I can
think of off the top of my head to even try.

http://www.virtualbox.org/ looks to be promising. Again, long shot at
best. Tho this is free and currently active. Let me know if you try
it and how it turns out.

I used virtualbox to setup both Bugzilla and Request Tracker 3.8 on a windows host with two separate Ubuntu guests (previously with a different company). It was very simple, and the NAT settings work great for directing traffic from the host to the guest OS.-----Original Message-----

Unfortunately the CPU on the server I’m working on isn’t powerful
enough to run a VM. :\

Could you please help me get this installed locally on Windows?

Thanks,
