This looks wrong: /usr/share/request-tracker4/etc/RT_Config.pm has:

"Usually you don't want to set these options. The only obvious reason
is if RT is accessible via https protocol on a non standard port, e.g.
'https://rt.example.com:9999'. In all other cases these options are
computed using C<$WebDomain>, C<$WebPort> and C<$WebPath>.
[...]
C<$WebURL> is the C<$WebBaseURL>, C<$WebPath> and trailing /, for
example: 'http://www.example.com/rt/'.
"

If you are setting $WebURL manually, it should include a trailing /
as per the docs.

Cheers,
Dominic.
