I beg to differ. The following is taken straight from the page I linked for you. It basicallysays to setup mysql, restart the server, then run the rt-setup-database tool with the paramaters provided.

Please read it again!

RT provides a script called rt-setup-database which creates the initial database for you. Please note that rt-setup-database does NOT create a database user for you. If you have not already created a database user for RT, please consult the appropriate documentation, such as ConfigureMysqlOnGentoo.

  • For MySQL:

Note: If you did not previously have mysql installed, you will need to ConfigureMysqlOnGentoo.

Verify that the skip-innodb is commented out in /etc/mysql/my.cnf. If it is not, then put an octothorpe in front of it:

.
.
[mysqld]
#skip-innodb
user = mysql
.
.

and restart the mysql server:


/etc/init.d/mysql restart

Then set up the database:

/var/www/myrt/rt-3.6.0/sbin/rt-setup-database --action init --dba root --prompt-for-dba-password

Hi,
      Thanks for your support. But, i am really sorry to say that there is nothing given about the database setup in gentoo guide. When i have installed RT than it says that database setup will be done automatically, but it didnt happened. Now i will try to install RT from the source. Meanwhile if you want to give me any other idea regarding this, than i will be very thankful to you for thr same

Hi,
     Thanks for replying me. Yes, you are right, i didnot initialize the database. But when i populate the database manually, and then login it gives me the same error. After checking, i found a file named initialdata. but when i tried to use this it gives me an error, or i donot know how should i use this file to populate the database. If you dont mind can you tell me how to do this. I am using gentoo-linux. I am really screwed up. Thanks in advance.

Hi again Bijayant,

If you installed RT using the gentoo package, read the instructions under "Database Setup" at http://wiki.bestpractical.com/index.cgi?GentooInstallGuide

Otherwise, assuming you compiled from source, cd to the directory you comiled from and run:
% make initialize database

You should be able to find some suitably close advice on the wiki at http://wiki.bestpractical.com/index.cgi?InstallationGuides
