-
# make create-rt
- Authentication errors?

make install-rt
- Add the following to your httpd.conf:
#replace /var/www/freeside with your freeside document root <Directory /var/www/freeside/rt/NoAuth> <Limit GET POST> allow from all Satisfy any SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler HTML::Mason </Limit> </Directory> #replace /var/www/freeside with your freeside document root <Directory /var/www/freeside/rt/REST/1.0/NoAuth> <Limit GET POST> allow from all Satisfy any SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler HTML::Mason </Limit> </Directory> #replace /var/www/freeside with your freeside document root <DirectoryMatch "^%/var/www/freeside/rt/.*NoAuth/images"> SetHandler None </DirectoryMatch> #replace /var/www/freeside with your freeside document root <Directory /var/www/freeside/rt/Ticket/Attachment> SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler HTML::Mason </Directory> #replace /var/www/freeside with your freeside document root <Directory /var/www/freeside/rt/Search> SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler HTML::Mason </Directory>

. (You may also wish to set ticket_system-default_queueid once you have RT configured.)
- Bootstrap RT's permissions:
- Click on "Ticketing Main" on the Freeside main menu to auto-create an RT login for your username
- From "Billing Main", go to Configuration | Employees | View/Edit employees and add a temporary "root" user. Note: the user name must be "root" (without the quotes).
- Log into your Freeside installation as the "root" user you just created, by closing all of your browser windows, or by using
https://root@yourmachone/freeside/
syntax if your browser supports it. - Click on "Ticketing Main" on the Freeside main menu. Click on "Configuration", then "Global", and then "User Rights". Grant the "SuperUser" right to your RT login.
- Disable the temporary "root" user.
- Follow the regular RT documentation to configure RT, setup the mailgate, etc.
