I upvote Martin's answer. He gave you the version and the proper technique to achieving it.

Re: [rt-users] which Perl version should one use with RT 4.4 on CentOS 6
Hi Jerome, First I want to apologize. I do not check my 'lists' every day. I hope you have already found your answer by now. If not,,, For my install I had a museum piece server and yet, its used every day. So they need new HW and OS but old DB SW for a quick transition rather than importing the data into a new ver install.(there done with background) So new HW with centOS 6.5 using the std perl-5.10.1-136.el6.x86_64 but running rt-3.8.4 The key for my install was resolving dependencies by running the following: perl sbin/rt-test-dependencies --with-postgres --with-modperl1 --install (30min later the command finished with the following issues) I saw messages like this too: Warning: Prerequisite 'Exception::Class => 1.15' for 'DROLSKY/HTML-Mason-1.56.tar.gz' failed when processing 'DROLSKY/Exception-Class-1.40.tar.gz' with 'make_test => NO'. Continuing, but chances to succeed are limited. and this: Syntax error on line 1046 of /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf: Can't locate RT/Extension/ForkTicket.pm in @INC (@INC contains: It could not locate it because it was not on the server So with the above and below messages I knew I had a pyramid of dependencies to resolve and I needed to start with the smallest and work my way to the very top installing them all. It took a small time really to get them all. Install module Net::Server Net::Server is up to date (2.008). SOME DEPENDENCIES WERE MISSING. <==and by the way some of the missing had missing for them too. ICAL missing dependencies: Data::ICal...MISSING MAILGATE missing dependencies: HTML::FormatText...MISSING STANDALONE missing dependencies: HTTP::Server::Simple >= 0.34...MISSING HTTP::Server::Simple::Mason >= 0.09...MISSING GPG missing dependencies: GnuPG::Interface...MISSING POSTGRESQL missing dependencies: DBD::Pg >= 1.43...MISSING CORE missing dependencies: HTML::Scrubber >= 0.08...MISSING MASON missing dependencies: HTML::Mason >= 1.36...MISSING http://perldoc.perl.org/perlmodinstall.html <==Read this for installing Dep I hope this helps.

Re: [rt-users] which Perl version should one use with RT 4.4 on CentOS 6
Hi, I would recommend installing a version of perl just for RT that is seperate from the system perl. I tend to use the version that the perl project considers stable. Currently v5.22.1 I believe. Check out perlbrew for a nice easy clean way of installing a independant perl version. Best Regards Martin On 2016-03-15 15:36, Joseph D.

Re: [rt-users] which Perl version should one use with RT 4.4 on CentOS 6
If you can upgrade to the latest version of CentOS 7, you'll get perl 5.16. Joseph D.

Re: [rt-users] which Perl version should one use with RT 4.4 on CentOS 6
Hi Peter, Thanks, I saw that. I was wondering what the benefits and general experience was of those who used later versions of Perl 5 or Perl 6 vs 5.10.1. Just trying to see if it was a worthwhile exercize trying to upgrade - which on Centos did not seem to be trivial. Cheers, Boris.

Re: [rt-users] which Perl version should one use with RT 4.4 on CentOS 6
Hello Boris, from readme [1] on github it is obvious the RT needs Perl as of version 5.10.1 and above. Readme file from 4.4 version has the same list of requirements. Some RT modules may have their own dependencies. You need to check them.
