RT 2.0.8 install problems on OpenBSD

Hey there,

I’m in the process of installing RT 2.0.8 on an OpenBSD 2.9 system. I plan
on using RT with a postgres database hosted on the same machine as RT.

However, I am having problems installing some of the Perl modules:

Net::Domain
Net::SMTP
Apache::Session
DBD:Pg

Most of them error out in testing with extremely unhelpful error messages.

I was hoping maybe someone else had some experience with RT and OpenBSD and
could offer their experiences.

Thanks,

Froggy

Hi Froggy,

I have RT 2.0.7 installed under OpenBSD. Everything went fairly smooth but I
had to force install several modules through CPAN, some of which it said
were up to date.

Try running a force install on those modules to see if it helps. I am
running MySQL however, so I can not comment on Postgres.

Regards,

Have a close look at the output from ‘perl Makefile.PL’.
Some of them will report dependencies early on, but that’s lost among the
rest of the junk, and doesn’t report an error at the end.

I’ve some notes on http://www.helgrim.com/perlmodules/ about some of the
dependencies that I’ve noticed.
