WOO HOO!! It's working.. under mod_perl and running very snappy.. for
the curious, I ripped everything out and started from scratch. There
was something in there that was causing trouble. If I get a chance I'll
try to do a post mortum later.
On the plus side ALL of my PERL has been updated- twice! ;)
Thanks for all the help!

Just an FYI, if you haven't had experience with mod_perl before, it
shouldn't be slow - in fact it should be pretty fast. Either RT Tracker
is dog slow (not written well, or just has a lot to do), or there was
something wrong with your installation (either RT or mod_perl). You
probably won't care if you get it working well under fastCGI though. :-)

I actually had things running under mod_perl after doing exactly that,
but it was dog slow. The trouble started when I tried to muck with
things and install fastCGI as a comparison. I finally got all the
dependency's to install and now I'm on the trail of what I think is an
fastcgi config error- the mason_handler.fcgi fails to remain running
(beats head against the wall, but maintains sense of humor)

If CentOS4 has the same versions of mod_perl and Perl modules as RHEL4,
which I assume it has, that might be causing you some problems. RHEL4
runs mod_perl 1.99, which seems to be very similar to mod_perl2, but
isn't and causes some confusion for other mod_perl dependant modules and
code. The mod_perl guys did rename modules for mod_perl 2, but that
isn't surprising as it was a big change. But with Red Hat sticking to
1.99 you get the old naming with new interfaces. What a mess! Your error
about not being able to find apache2::something is indicative of this
situation.
The only way I could things to work under mod_perl was to install
Perl modules via rpm's packaged for RHEL ... nothing 3rd party.
Another alternative would be to install from source and make sure you
really are running mod_perl 2 under Apache 2. CPAN is your friend.

I'm playing with RT Tracker for a possible solution to support requests
@ work. I've got it running with apache2 using mod_perl on my test
server and boy howdy is it slow. It takes 50 seconds just to load the
log-in screen. I've tried to add the fastcgi to the server and have been
getting an arcane error message "cant find apache2:something or another"
and install fails. I "think" it has something to do with the renaming
the PERL folks did. I haven't even begun to test e-mail integration.
Should RT be painful running under mod_perl? And by painful I mean it
actually locked the server this afternoon. Anyone have any tips for
getting fastcgi to install on CentOS4?
The RT wiki warns of dependency heck, but this is almost too much!
