Hi,

I’m trying to get RT-3.4.5 installed on Fedora Core 3 with Apache2 and
mod_perl2 (2.0.2).

When I access the rt-website after install, i got the following error in
the web-servers error_log:

[Thu Jan 26 15:42:33 2006] [notice] Apache/2.0.52 (Fedora) configured –

[Thu Jan 26 14:42:41 2006] [crit]: The ‘comp’ parameter (undef) to
HTML::Mason::
Request::CGI->new() was an ‘undef’, which is not one of the allowed
types: scala
r object

Stack:
[/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/HTML/Mason/CGIHandler.pm:127]

[/opt/rt/3/bin/webmux.pl:123]
[-e:0]

Has anyone an idea?

Thanks,
Joerg

I think the problem is the CGI.pm version, that should be >=3.11, I had
the same problem and I solved it by installing it on a different location,
see:

http://campus.fct.unl.pt/paulomatos/rt/repository/3.4.x/repodata/repoview/perl-CGI.pm-0-3.11-1.mp2.html

If you need download the SRPM, from:
http://campus.fct.unl.pt/paulomatos/rt/repository/3.4.x/SRPMS/perl-CGI.pm-3.11-1.mp2.src.rpm

and rebuild it, under FC3.

The file /etc/httpd/conf.d/perlx-cgi.conf, has a hack for mod_perl search
for modules before on this location.

Thank you very much, this solved my problem.

What I don’t understand ist that my CGI.pm-Version is 3.15 which seems
to be not compatible with mod_perl2 or RT-3.4.5.
