[rt-users] Setting up Escalation

Bit stuck here.

 

Looked at the page
http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/ConfigureEscalation to setup
Escalation. One of the examples suggested using this command line to
test it: 

 

/opt/rt3/bin/rt-crontool --verbose --search RT::Search::FromSQL
--search-arg "(Status='new' OR Status='open') AND FinalPriority > 0 AND
Due > 'Jan 1, 1970'" --action RT::Action::Generic

 

So I did that and get the following error:

 

102: Processing without transaction, some conditions and actions may
fail. Consider using --transaction argumentAction prepared...Action
committed.

 

Many times (I assume the number is the ticket number).

 

The problem I *think* I am having is that the account that cron runs
under has to match a user in RT. I setup a user called rt_user in RT,
gave it Global Permissions to ShowTicket and ModifyTicket and then set
the account up in Linux (again as suggested in an example) , su into
that account and run the command above but then I get an error about not
finding RT_Config.pm - permission denied. I added rt_user to the root
group but still the same problem. So I had a brainwave, setup an account
on rt called root but it won't let me do that.

 

So, I'm stuck. I don't want to start playing around with permissions in
RT so can somebody please tell me what I need to do or point me in the
right direction? Have checked the RT Essentials book but nothing
significant in there.

 

Kind regards,
