I finally got around to upgrading from etch to lenny about a week ago and, since then, my Request Tracker installation has been returning blank pages after about 24 hours of operation. An `apache2ctl graceful` will get it working again, but, the next day, I'm right back to blank pages.
These white pages were initially associated with a segfault being logged on each request, which gave me something to google for, and I turned up some posts stating that it was likely caused by an incomplete upgrade which did not make all necessary database changes. A specific change was mentioned, which did indeed put an end to the segfaults (it now logs no errors when failing), but the blank pages are still coming back. Some of my google hits mentioned that the change I'd made was not the only one and that you should go through the steps listed in UPGRADING.mysql or re-run upgrade-mysql-schema.pl, but neither of these files appears to exist on my system. (`locate` doesn't find them and `dpkg -L` doesn't list them as being present in the request-tracker3.6 or rt3.6-db-mysql packages.) What do I need to do to recover from this and get RT to stay up 24/7 again? -- Dave Sherohman -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
