[request-tracker-maintainers] Bug#632129: rt4-apache2: apache2 configtest fails with Segmentation fault

[Matt Zagrabelny]

Package: rt4-apache2
Version: 4.0.1-1
Severity: normal


Greetings,

When I enable RT in apache2 via including
/etc/request-tracker4/apache2-modperl2.conf in my
sites-enabled/000-default file I get the following error:

# invoke-rc.d apache2 restart
Syntax OK
Segmentation fault
Action 'configtest' failed.
The Apache error log may have more information.
 failed!
 invoke-rc.d: initscript apache2, action "restart" failed.

If I comment out the Perl block of the file
(/etc/request-tracker4/apache2-modperl2.conf), such as:

#<Perl>
#  use Plack::Handler::Apache2;
#  Plack::Handler::Apache2->preload("/usr/share/request-tracker4/libexec/rt-server");
#</Perl>

Apache can successfully restart.

I then run /usr/share/request-tracker4/libexec/rt-server by hand (out of
curiosity):

# /usr/share/request-tracker4/libexec/rt-server

RT looks to be running okay without the Perl block in the config file,
but wanted to report this. Looks like Plack::Handler::Starlet needs to
be packaged.

Cheers,
