Problem initializing postgres DB with 3.4.0

I never heard back from anyone and I did not have time to track down the
problem earlier, but now I tried with the official 3.4.0 release and I
came across the exact same problem. The only difference is I had to
upgrade DBIx::SearchBuilder from 1.19 to 1.22.

I dropped the previous rt3 database and tried to re-initialize the
database when I came across the same infinite loop problem.

Anyone have a clue what might be wrong?

Subject: [rt-users] Problem initializing postgres DB with 3.4.0 rc5

I have a test system that I use to pre-test RT (and other tools). I
tried installing 3.4.0 rc5 and ran into a problem when initializing the
database. It looks like it goes into an infinite loop.

I get this message in /var/log/messages:

Jan 14 16:19:55 or-testdeploy RT: Deep recursion on subroutine
“RT::CurrentUser::_Init” at
/opt/or-buildtools/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/DBIx/SearchBuilder/Record.p
m line 362, line 331. (/opt/or-buildtools/lib/RT.pm:277)

When I was running this command:

/opt/or-buildtools/sbin/rt-setup-database --action init --dba postgres

–prompt-for-dba-password

In order to create a new database and grant RT access to that database,

this script needs to connect to your Pg instance on localhost as
postgres.

Please specify that user’s database password below. If the user has no
database

password, just press return.

I’m running on RH Enterprise Linux ES 3 with postgres and apache2 and
mod_perl. I have the same machine configuration running 3.2.2 in my
production environment without any problems.

Here is the rt3.4rc5 configuration:
