You will first run the ./configure with whichever options you require. Then verify that all perl modules are installed with 'make testdeps'. Once all modules are squared away run 'make upgrade'. This will prepare all the scripts necessary to update the database schema. Once 'make upgrade' has completed you will need to cd to etc/upgrade within the RT source directory. Inside you will find several directories which require a command be run for each. The command will look similar to this: /usr/local/rt3/sbin/rt-setup-database --dba root \ --prompt-for-dba-password \ --action schema \ --datadir /your/rt/sourcedir/rt-3.4.4/etc/upgrade/<version> You'll have to replace '--action schema' with one of three options for each directory (you can find these options in the README; you can also find all of this in the same README). Once you've run the command with the three options for each of the directories you will be all set to log in. Everything should work.
