[rt-users] Installation woes

2008-04-23 Thread John Paul Hayes
Hi all! Just a quick one here. I obtained a fresh copy of RT and tried to install it on my linux server. However, the installation failed when trying to change permissions. Now as a result, mysql and ssh have all failed. Has anybody come across this before? Any help would be much appreciated!
