Working on setup RT on Red Hat.

My question is what are the best repos to use for Red Hat 6.6 and or Red
Hat 7.

Seen some people use epe other have used the centos.

Do you mean ‘EPEL’ (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) :: Fedora Docs) ?

EPEL is a set of extra packages that promises to not conflict with the
packages provided by the base system (rhel, centos, fedora, etc), so you
could use EPEL /within/ centos, but it wouldn’t be used instead of centos.

Here are the notes I have for a centos 5 install for the system
dependencies:

yum groupinstall ‘Development tools’
yum groupinstall ‘MySQL Database’
yum groupinstall ‘Web Server’

yum install mysql-devel
yum install gd-devel
yum install expat-devel
yum install graphviz-devel

add epel repo to yum

rpm -i
http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/5/x86_64/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm
yum install mod_fcgid

Notice how I use the EPEL repo for the mod_fcgid package, this is only
because it isn’t available in the base packages.

Some additional system configuration I do is:

/etc/httpd/conf.d/fcgid.conf

  • FcgidMaxRequestLen 1073741824

/etc/my.cnf
+max_allowed_packet=64M

With this base the system is ready for the GENERAL INSTALLATION in the
README.
