Hi Torben, Sorry for the delay in replying. I see from the responses on the rt-users list there were some questions about whether the Apache configuration was correct, but it seems that you're essentially using the Debian defaults (and I'm not aware of any widespread problem as yet). I did notice you had some local CGI scripts which used the perl-script handler, and I assume from your sample script that they use RT's libraries. This is a bit of a guess, but can you try not running those scripts with ModPerl::Registry but as plain CGI and see if that makes any difference? > -- Package-specific info: > Changed files: > > There are locally modified files in /usr/local/share/request-tracker4/, > these may (or may not) be the source of the problem. Could you confirm what's in here, please?
