Re: [rt-users] rt4, centos, and fastcgi
mod_fastcgi and mod_fcgid require different configurations. We haven't used mod_fastcgi in quite some time, but here is our config for mod_fcgid: LoadModule fcgid_module modules/mod_fcgid.so # Use FastCGI to process .fcg .fcgi .fpl scripts # Don't do this if mod_fastcgi is present, as it will try to do the same thing IfModule !mod_fastcgi.c AddHandler fcgid-script fcg fcgi fpl /IfModule # Sane place to put sockets and shared memory file SocketPath run/mod_fcgid SharememPath run/fcgid_shm # Main instance Alias /rt/NoAuth/images/ /opt/rt3/share/html/NoAuth/images/ ScriptAlias /rt /opt/rt3/bin/mason_handler.fcgi/ Since you have your RT instance inside a virtual host entry, your FastCgiServer directive should also be inside that virtual host entry.

Re: [rt-users] rt4, centos, and fastcgi
You don't need both an RT4 and a fcgid conf file. Paste exactly what I put in my previous reply (correcting for obvious path differences) into, say, a file named rt.conf and then rename your current RT-associated config files to something like rt4.conf.old and fcgid.conf.old then restart. Let's try to get it to work outside of a virtual host first then let's examine the errors. You should also set the following (or something like it) in your site config file. Set($WebPath , /rt); Set($WebBaseURL , https://actual server name); Set($WebImagesURL , $WebPath . /NoAuth/images/); Once you get this working, then you can try mucking around with a virtual host. Note, that I'm also running /opt/rt3/bin/mason_handler.fcgi vs. sbin/rt-server.fcgi. Obviously, I'm still running RT3 and I haven't read the documentation about fast CGI use under RT4.
