apt-get install apache2

apt-get install apache2-perl-mod

apt-get install apache-dbi-perl

then, I put a file /etc/apache2/conf.d/otrs containing the following directives:

# --

ScriptAlias /otrs/ "/opt/otrs/bin/cgi-bin/"
Alias /otrs-web/ "/opt/otrs/var/httpd/htdocs/"

#Persistent connections#
PerlModule Apache::DBI

# if mod_perl is used

# load all otrs modules
Perlrequire /opt/otrs/scripts/apache2-perl-startup.pl

    # Apache::Reload - Reload Perl Modules when Changed on Disk
    PerlModule Apache2::Reload

    PerlModule Apache2::RequestRec

    # set mod_perl2 options
    <Location /otrs>

        SetHandler perl-script

        Options +ExecCGI
        PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
        PerlOptions +SetupEnv
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Location>

</IfModule>

# directory settings
<Directory "/opt/otrs/bin/cgi-bin/">
    AllowOverride None
    Options +ExecCGI -Includes
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>
<Directory "/opt/otrs/var/httpd/htdocs/">
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

# MaxRequestsPerChild (so no apache child will be to big!)
MaxRequestsPerChild 400

and, restarting apache, everithing works.

Hope this helps.

If you tell us what kind of operating system you use (Debian? Suse? Windows?), maybe someone can help you more accurately...

Oggetto: [otrs] OTRS performance tuning

hi everyone,

i have loaded the OTRS support package which should analyze my system. well, after running this package i have two critical points to review:

Apache::DBI Apache::DBI should be used to get a better performance (pre establish database connections). Critical

Apache::Reload You should use mod_perl to increase your performance very strong! Critical

well i searched all over the internet and couldn’t find anything on this two points. as i guess, this is not really a OTRS issue but more a apache issue... unfortunately i am not really familiar with apache... so hopefully someone of you guys can give a clue.

thanks a lot.

regards,

patrick.
