We've had several instances where something went wrong, and an email got sent to a bad address, and it bounced back, and we had no idea anything was wrong until we noticed no response.

Extract from RT2 config.pm # If $BouncesToRTOwner is defined, RT will send mail that it believes # might be a bounce to $RT::OwnerEmail (Currently unimplemented) # If $StoreBounces is defined, RT will record messages that it believes # might be autogenerated and might lead to mail loops. # As it does this, it will try to be careful not to send mail to the # sender of these messages (Currently unimplemented) So I suppose bounce handling is in the TODO list somewhere :-) However, I expect bounces to be an almost-normal part of operation, so I'm thinking of interpreting the bounce a little (could even be done by diverting the e-mail before it gets into RT), searching for the ticket ID, and attaching the bounce to the ticket, which should then go from stalled to open for operator attention.

I tackled a problem that we experience here with our resolved queue. Basically, we have 11,000 resolved tickets (+/- 1,000), and if you happen to view the resolved queue, well, you're hosed for the next 20 minutes as it builds the page. For a while, I thought it would make more sense to break up the queue view into pieces (eg. display x number of tickets in the queue view at any one time), but I didn't have the time to put into it. Well, I finally got it done. The first attachment shows the necessary changes to lib/rt/ui/web/forms.pm to allow for : 1. The ability to search by area, and 2. The ability to limit the output of the Update of the Queue filters to a user specified limit. The second attachment shows the necessary changes to lib/rt/ui/web/manipulate.pm to handle the building of the mysql query for area searches and output limiting. -Rich -- Richard West Disclaimer: These opinions are mine.

We have identified the queue structure that we want to start with and will be setting things up soon. I would appreciate any suggestions that experienced users have regarding the configuration of our queues. I figure that we will make changes as we see how each of the queues get used, but suggestions that people have for good initial queue settings would he helpful. I suppose that you don't want the requester getting all of the transaction notifications, but if that is switched off do they still get notification when the ticket is closed? In practice is it useful for queue members to get transaction notifications? Thanks in advance for any learned wisdom that you can share. --chris From Rich.West at divatv.com Fri Mar 2 10:29:31 2001 From: Rich.West at divatv.com (Rich West) Date: Fri, 02 Mar 2001 10:29:31 -0500 Subject: [rt-users] Web UI - limit tickets/page ability?

We are using the latest version of RT and now we have the problem that sometimes overnight 4000 to 10000 requests are created by autoresponders, mainly by GMX. That means that f.e. a GMX user sends an email at 10 pm to our queue and the RT replies with the standard answer and the ticket ID. The autoresponder of the user answers with the standard text and RT replies with the standard answer and a new ticket ID ... This is a very serious problem because approximatly all 20 to 30 hours I have to stop the request tracker, remove all the dummy entries form the database and restart the request tracker.

This is my first post to this list so don't flame me emedialely =) I have installed RT on my Redhat 7 machine and I think all dependencyproblems are solved except from Apache::DBI (I'm working on it now).

But I want to use this ticket system for our support department and make it possible for our users to send emails to us, get a ticketnumber and be updated on the ticket status etc. But when a user who is not registered as a user in Rt tries to send an email to the ticket system the user gets a mail back with the content (Ticket creation faild".

This is a request tracker which should help with the coordination of request and the documentation what has done about a task.

I know this is very probably treated in RT2, but if RT2 was production quality, it would be released, right ;-) The major problem I have is to see that I only get one ticket per contract/user/whatever. I'll have a lot of tickets not associated with a contract/user/whatever, but if one is, I want only that one. So, essentially, to a free-form string, if necessary just a number, I want to associate one and only one ticket. Just as we have the box field in which we can enter a ticket number and go to the corresponding ticket, so do I want a box in which I can enter my free-form string and go to the corresponding ticket. I don't like the idea of using the ticket subject, since that's the mail subject, but I'm thinking of it. That would be enough for my immediate needs; of course it would be nicer if, for example, when there is no corresponding ticket, one is created for the free-form string in question; if that is the only way to create a liason between ticket and free-form string that means that uniqueness is easily ensured, and that operators will have a minimum of hoops to jump through. Does anyone have such a patch somewhere? Any pointers, something to get me started? No problem if some hacking at the code is needed, I'd do the whole thing myself, it's simply that I haven't yet dared to muck around too much in the code...

However it would be nice to have a web view for the requester where they can come by and view status on their ticket. Similar to career services where customer can see progress of their work. I know I can set this up by defining a user (a staff) with read (display only) access, but I hate to define 200 users. Also while we are at this, another question I posted along with this post had to do with certain bounced messages to anonymous at sc.prepass.com and exessive email copy to root at localhost.samba.sc.prepass.com. Looking into the database, it looks like "user.MYD" contain root as a user and I had cheched the Queue's property to send email to everyone. This has come about due my multiple attempts to install RT and resedues of previous attempts are still in the database (mysql). This calls for a make cleanup target in the Makefile. As a workaround, can I manually delete such users from the database and if so would I break any integrities.

Back to configuration issues. I did what you suggested regarding root. Does this guy need to exists. I have defined a new user called 'admin' cuase I don't want my Unix admins to panic that there is a relation between this root and the real root. Having created an admin and marked as "RT Admin" and "Admin" priv. Can I delete 'root' altogether. Also, I see my RT installation dir (/home/rt) has a mix of root:root and rt:rt ownership on files. Can you provide a map of what should be owned by who. Thanks....good product....likeing it more ...

That should be all. Enjoy!

Two "How do I coerce RT 1.0 into..." questions for you folks: Would there be a way to track time estimates within a queue? For example, a ticket comes in, it is estimated at 3 hours work. When all the tickets are listed in priority, we would like to have a good idea of how many tickets we'd be able to handle in a day. What if one ticket depends on another for completion? An example would be a PC install and a wiring install. The PC can't go in until the wiring is done, so we'd like some way of keeping track of that. Merging the tickets is one option, but then we lose a lot of the statistics we find valuable. The best I could come up with was to add the dependant person to the admin of the first ticket's requestor list, so they'd at least get an email and can change the properties manually. Will the answers change if we were talking about RT2?

I have the exact same problem (you might want to look up posts I made last month sometime, as well as a post I made yesterday). I decided to open a new ticket, and I'll have to hack RT as suggested by Jesse yesterday to create a link between them. The problem is that we typically get a lot of complaints for one user. Therefore, instead of merging tickets, we'll have one ticket for each complaint, and one ticket for the accused. If, two months later, the same guy gets accused again, it'll still be the same ticket for him, and we'll have the guy's criminal record before us. If anyone has other suggestions, I will be gratful, and I'm sure Jocke will too :-) -- #include Lorens Kockum From oved at xor.technion.ac.il Thu Mar 8 05:48:24 2001 From: oved at xor.technion.ac.il (Oved Ben-Aroya) Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2001 12:48:24 +0200 Subject: [rt-users] Newbe, root getting copied on communications In-Reply-To: <3AA4AF70.2622.CE4848E6@localhost>; from arclight@jump.net on Tue, Mar 06, 2001 at 09:35:44AM -0600 References: <3AA3F475.2221A063@sc.prepass.com> <20010306103753.N32417@janet.planNET.de> <3AA4AF70.2622.CE4848E6@localhost> Message-ID: <20010308124824.L1134@xor.technion.ac.il> I guess by "web interface" Christian meant not only opening a problem request but also checking the state of already sent requests. One can create "public" user(s) with only a display privilege on a queue. This however can be a privacy issue, as such public users can see all the tickets, not just their own. Our firewall team would like to restrict the ability to open a ticket to a certain group (department liasons). Having another type of user - one that can open tickets and display only her tickes - is probably best.

I've got the web side no problem, but the mail handling is stumping me. We use our ISP's pop server, so I configured fetchmail like this: poll mail.netacc.net proto pop3: username cfojay password ******** mda "/home/rt/bin/rt-mailgate sct correspond" "sct" is a queue that I set up via the admin-webrt.cgi. I'm running the fetchmail command manually (to test it) and it seems to fetch the mail I send without any problems, but nothing seems to happen. The fetchmail doesn't give any errors, but the message is just gone. I'm guessing that there's some kind of error with the rt-mailgate command, but I can't seem to find any place that would be. I've tried reinstalling, running a 'make fixperms' (or whatever it's called) to no avail. The 'sct' queue is configured to allow non-members to create requests. Any ideas? Is there any reason that rt-mailgate would silently discard a message? Is there a way to run some kind of diagnostics or at least a "-v"?

Hello up there :-) There is a debug mode, apparently... try rt-mailgate --help. This should get you some more diagnostics: rt-mailgate --extended-syntax -v -d -a correspond -q sct Also, you might want to try mda "cat > /tmp/foobar" or something like that, and then feed that into rt-mailgate to see if it works that way.

I have tested this with Outlook and all is fine there. I have checked my Qmail mail log and I don't see any trace of attempts from RT to send email to Requester (for a Reply).

You can get the script from http://tarjema.com, it's the most recent article I've posted there. I didn't think it would be appropriate to send an attachment to the whole list. Please grab it, poke it, jab it and tell me how awful it is so I can make it better! The script as it is now runs each ticket through a six day life cycle. If a ticket is in the systems, support or noc queues, doesn't have anything to do with DSL and has a priority less than 10, it will move from priority 4 (the default for all of our queues) to 3 at 3 days, from 3 to to at 5 days and from 2 to 1 at 6 days of age. At each step the owner will be notified by email, or if it is unowned the manager will be notified. When it goes from 2 to 1 the manager and our company president (small company, he wants to know) are also notified by email and the owner will be paged (email sent to a pager gateway).

As I understand it: o Requestors always receive correspondence mail. o Requestors receive, if configured (which I have), "autoreply" mail when they create new requests. o Depending on the configuration, requestors either receive no transaction mail or all transaction mail except comments. I would like my requestors to receive transaction mail except comments, but I don't want them receiving duplicate mail for correspondence and new requests. That is, I want a third transaction mail option for requestors: all transaction mail except new requests, correspondence, and comments. I'm willing to hack the perl myself; can someone point me to the appropriate spot in the source? Better yet, has someone already done this who can send me a diff? Thanks. --Cliff Krumvieda From tj.lists at overland.net Sun Mar 11 20:20:08 2001 From: tj.lists at overland.net (Todd Jagger) Date: Sun, 11 Mar 2001 19:20:08 -0600 Subject: [rt-users] failing pipe command w/ rt Message-ID: <5.1.0.10.2.20010311190509.03e29d18@mail.overland.net> Hi, I've got a server that was running sendmail and I'm trying to migrate it to Exim.

You can get the script from http://tarjema.com, it's the most recent article I've posted there. I didn't think it would be appropriate to send an attachment to the whole list. Please grab it, poke it, jab it and tell me how awful it is so I can make it better! The script as it is now runs each ticket through a six day life cycle. If a ticket is in the systems, support or noc queues, doesn't have anything to do with DSL and has a priority less than 10, it will move from priority 4 (the default for all of our queues) to 3 at 3 days, from 3 to to at 5 days and from 2 to 1 at 6 days of age. At each step the owner will be notified by email, or if it is unowned the manager will be notified. When it goes from 2 to 1 the manager and our company president (small company, he wants to know) are also notified by email and the owner will be paged (email sent to a pager gateway).

I think it keeps the programs in /etc/smrsh on redhat6. add a symlink from /usr/local/rt/bin/rt-mailgate to /etc/smrsh/rt-mailgate and things should work better.

I'm wondering if anyone has used RT to do this before, and if they could point me to some examples, or share some tips. Essentially, we want web users to submit update requests (e.g. "Life Magazine" will now be called "Lives Magazine"). The web update engine will generate an XML change object, and create a ticket in the RT system (possibly using SOAP). Then RT 'Approvers' will be able to review the change tickets and approve them if appropriate, triggering another action from the RT system to the database front end software, which applies the XML chunk to update the entry to "Lives Magazine".

This sounds to me like a web interface to Aegis (a free version control system with configurable test and review mechanisms for checkins, among many other features) might be closer to what you want, though.

I've got RT running on a test machine, no problem. I went to install it on the real machine, and it doesn't work. The CGI scripts fail with the error message below. The same error appears in apache's errors log. Here's the strange part: as root or as myself, I can run the cgi script from the command line and it dutifully spits out the HTML. It seems to be the rt account that is having a problem with perl. The file ctime.pl is sitting where it belongs in /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.0 which appears in @INC! I've also attached some info about the environment; it's the same on both machines, other than the fact that the test machine is an Sun Ultra 5. Both are running Solaris 8; the production machine is about a year newer, though, so it may have a slightly newer rev of Solaris 8. (The production machine is a Sun 220R, but uname reports it as an Ultra 60. Hmmm. Maybe the 220R is just a sideways Ultra 60 :) I'm running apache_1.3.19 on both machines.

That's kind of what I thought although the oddity was it was working before. I figured out what the deal was this morning... There was a problem with my rc startup sequence that was not letting safe_mysqld completely finish starting up properly. This is on an sgi and it wasn't liking the way I wrote the rc.local script to start safe_mysqld so it was hanging there (same simple script works on BSD and Linux). I guess enough was running to open cases but not enough to add content to them. Once I removed the entry and started mysql manually after boot everything is normal again. I probably just didn't do something correctly in the startup script specific to the sgi.

Message-ID: <3AB23A73.D8194490@ore.org> Hiya, System details:- RT Version: Welcome to Request Tracker 1.0.1 MySQL server version: 3.23.27-beta-log Machine Details: Linux 2.2.18 #1 SMP Tue Feb 13 13:28:59 GMT 2001 i686 unknown Perl Version: Summary of my perl5 (5.0 patchlevel 4 subversion 4) configuration... [ it's irrelevant anyway! ] Patches installed: StripMime. We have RT running as per above, but the other day our mysqld.log file got to 2GB, and MySQL ground to a halt. I've done an isamchk on the tables which RT uses, and they all came back fine, and all the transaction data from RT is in place, and yet when I look at - I think all - old RT requests I don't see the transaction data listed in the history list for the requests, but when I go and look at the filesystem level, the files are there, and when I look at the MySQL database, I see the data in there which looks correct by comparison with working requests. A 'make fixperms' in the source directory does not fix this and get the transactions back into the front end. Obviously we would like to make this happen and get the data back into the frontend. Any help you could give would be much appreciated. Yours, Kev. -- Kev Green, aka Kyrian.

This way you get a to-do when the machine has a package ready to go, everybody on the mailing list is free to comment, but RT only accepts mail from that build machine. just use procmail for your default delivery agent and put in a .procmailrc file for the "rt" user.

I just installed stripmime, and I'm a bit disappointed that I don't get a clickable link in the web ui. First off, I modified the script to only put the first attachment in-line (if it's text), since I expect large text attachments that I don't want in the interface. That was a breeze. Than I modified the stripmime script to output a HTML HREF instead of just the plaintext URL (should have realized it wasn't that simple) and saw that the output is HTML-sanitized, which was to be expected, after all. I'm quite concerned about not having problems with malicious or bizarre mails wreaking havoc in my interface, so I'm certainly not going to remove what protection I have against that, but I do want clickable links too. Any way? Maybe after the sanitation is done I could sed the output looking for the distinctive (text) link to https://myhost/stripmime/, or even with a custom unusual token that I'd make stripmime output?

), therefore 
you cannot have any clickable links in it.  for 'optical conformance' the url 
list is printed in teletype style ().

any feedbacks for enhancements are welcome.

Yep, I'm using procmail extensively. Here's how I'm doing it (Jesse, feel free to add this to contrib if you want.) In the sendmail aliases file (note that you may need to place the | inside the quotes, depending on your configuration): queuename: | "/usr/local/bin/procmail -a queuename -d rt" Procmail's -a flag lets us specify the contents of the $1 variable; -d lets you specify the user procmail will become before attempting delivery. Then, in ~rt/.procmailrc we have a bunch of log file config and then the all-important line: INCLUDERC=/path/to/standard.rc I suppose I could put it all into RT's .procmailrc, but I wanted to keep it in a seperate directory for my own sanity. The standard.rc file archives every message that comes in using the following recipe: YRMON=`date +%Y-%m` MAILDIR="/local/maps/tickets/archive/$1" QUEUE="$1" :0 rc | gzip --to-stdout --fast >> $MAILDIR/$YRMON.gz Then it does various filtering; if I want a filter to only apply to one queue, I'd do something like: :0 * ? test $QUEUE = "queuename" * ^From:.*example at example.com { EXITCODE=69 HOST } Next, I'll filter through stripmime (though we don't need to do that for the queues that've been moved to RT2.) I've set stripmime's $outputprog to "/bin/cat" so that it works as a filter, and further processing can occur afterwards: :0 f * !^From:.*@mail\-abuse\.org | /local/maps/tickets/bin/stripmime | head -c 50000 The `head` is so that messages are kept to a sane length, but we don't want to do that before stripmime pulls out any attachments. I don't like RT1's autoresponder; quite simply, it's way too prone to participating in mail loops (RT2 seems better.) So, we talked Jesse into creating rt-mailgate's extended syntax somewhere around version 1.0.4, which allows complicated procmail-based autoresponder recipes such as: :0 { # pipe to rt-mailgate & grab ticket ID; we need error handling here TICKETID=`cat | /local/maps/rt/bin/rt-mailgate --extended-syntax \ --queue $QUEUE --action correspond --ticketid` # grab the subject SUBJECT=`head -20 | /usr/local/bin/formail -XSubject:` # autorespond if appropriate :0 h # ever responded on this ticket before? (clear cache periodically) * !? grep -sq $TICKETID $CACHEDIR/.ticketid.cache # is there a message file available? * ? test -r $AREPDIR/$QUEUE # has the message ever looped through anything before? * !^X-Loop: # is it from a daemon or similar? * !^From.*(daemon|listserv|majordomo|mailman|auto) # check precedence * !^Precedence:.*(junk|list|bulk|noreply|bofh) # is it from us? * !^X-RT-Loop-Prevention: MAPS # is it from Alan Brown or tomcat at www.base.com.br? * !^From.*(alan at manawatu\.gen\.nz|tomcat at www\.base\.com\.br) | ( /usr/local/bin/formail -rt -I"From: $QUEUE at mail-abuse.org" \ -I"Subject: [MAPS #$TICKETID] ($QUEUE) $SUBJECT" \ -A"X-Request-ID: $TICKETID" \ -A"X-RT-Loop-Prevention: MAPS" \ -I"Precedence: junk" ; \ cat $AREPDIR/$QUEUE ) \ | /usr/sbin/sendmail -oi -t \ && echo $TICKETID >> $CACHEDIR/.ticketid.cache # didn't autorespond? dump it. :0 E /dev/null } And at the end is a recipe that'll send any remaining messages to me, in case something slipped through the cracks. -- J.D.

The user guide states: RT uses the subject line of a message to decide what to do with it. If the subject contains the identifier of a request that already exists, the message becomes a comment. If the subject line contains no identifier, a new request will be created. Thus you should be careful with the subject header when sending messages to the RT alias to avoid creating new requests where they are not needed. I envisioned this capability to let me send an unstructured email (basically not knowing it was going into RT) and have a request created. I also understood this to mean that later emails could be sent to the same RT address (with the tag included) and be treated as comments. When I send an email as a new request, I get back something like Subject: [mgts.exu.ericsson.se #] (_rt_system) RT Error: test request #8 Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2001 13:33:46 -0600 (CST) From: James Dumser via RT To: eusjadu at exu.ericsson.se There has been an error: You did not specify a ticket number for these comments.

(Well, supported as much as the rest of the package is ;) Some highlights of Beta1: * Ports to Oracle 8 and Postgres 7 * Significant work on the incoming mail gateway * Support for merging tickets * Simpler, cleaner installation * Lots of UI improvements * Lots of bug fixes * The beginnings of a manual How to get it: Fire up your trusty ftp client and point it at: ftp://ftp.fsck.com/pub/rt/devel/rt-1-3-61.tar.gz tar xzvf rt-1-3-61.tar.gz cd rt-1-3-61 more README Reporting bugs: If you run into issues, please send bug reports to rt-2.0-bugs at fsck.com Try to include: perl version, database type and version, OS and version, sendmail (or replacement) version, any stack trace generated and anything else you might find useful. The future: I'm hard at work on RT 2.0 Beta 2 (You can see the todo list at: http://fsck.com/rt2/NoAuth/Buglist.html) After Beta 2, I'll role a release candidate for 2.0, which I'll let percolate for a few weeks.

These files should be written # so that the first line describes the canned response -- this is the # line that will be shown in the pop-up menu. The rest of the file is # the response itself, which will be inserted into the top of the # reply textarea. # # You may also want to edit the part of the JavaScript below (see line # 243) that creates the standard closing, which is tacked onto all # canned responses. You can edit it out if you don't need that. # # Running this script will write the JavaScript file into the $webdir # directory specified below, which should be a directory in the # document root of the Web server running RT. Once that is done, # insert the following line at line 378 rt/lib/rt/ui/web/forms.pm # (relative to the rt home directory), just above the textarea tag: # # # # where "/etc/rt/canned.js" points to the file generated by running # this script, starting at the document root of the Web server. # # That's all you should have to do to install canned responses. When # you come up with more to add, just drop them in the 'uncanned' # directory and re-run 'cannery' -- they will be added immediately. # # If you have comments or suggestions about this script, please let me # know.

I was really really really hoping to crank through beta 2 and move onto a release candidate before I left the country. Sadly, well, real life intervened. Some minor bugs cropped up. I've spent a bit of time pursuing some consulting gigs so I can make enough money to eat and keep a roof over my head while I continue to work on free software for y'all. So I've juggled the release plan a little bit. There's now going to be a 'beta 3' which contains some functionality and 'cosmetic' issues and the RT1 importer. beta 2 is stuff that I think I can get to before I leave. bugfixes will have priority over features. and I'm likely to punt issues to beta 3 if I run out of time. The goal is that beta 2 should be ready for limited deployment by folks who are clueful or foolhardy. It's at the point where I would personally use it for a customer facing ticketing system. But, well, I fall into at least one of the categories mentioned above (the latter). And I know the code inside and out. In my absence, it is my hope that folks will use rt-devel to help each other get current betas running and to help find and fix bugs. I expect to be able to check in at least once a week....but don't be too surprised if you don't hear from me for most of the month.
