How to install RequestTracker with email facility on Ubuntu 10.04 The following demonstrates how to install RequestTracker 3.8.7 with email facility on Ubuntu server 10.04. RequestTracker really shines when it works with email as it can notify the end user at key stages of a ticket progress. It will even record the thread of a conversation between the RT user & the ticket requester. Before you start, please create a pop3 email account on your mail server. In this example example IT-Support@yourdomain

Install Ubuntu 10.04 & RT related packages

Boot from the Ubuntu Server 10.04 CD & follow the installation steps. When presented with the Software Selection screen, select the following: Lamp Server Mail Server OpenSSH Server Set the MYSQL root password when prompted (twice). Set postfix to "Internet site" when prompted. Set Email to your smtp server when prompted. Reboot when install finished & login as the username you created. I suggest logging in remotely via ssh or Putty from now on to make it easy for you to copy & paste in the following commands. Run the following command to gain root access: sudo su - Run the following command to install packages: apt-get update; apt-get install rt3.8-apache2 rt3.8-clients rt3.8-db-mysql request-tracker3.8 fetchmail Change "rt.tickets" to "tickets" when prompted. Respond "Yes" to RT_SiteConfig.pm permissions when prompted. Respond "Yes" to Configure RT with dbconfig-common when prompted. Enter the MYSQL root password you used earlier in order to set up the new RT database when prompted. Set the RT database access password (this password is for RT to connect to MYSQL & is stored in RT_SiteConfig.pm).
