[rt-users] Scrip installation blues

[Feargal Reilly]

Ick! Jesse and I had been discussing the best way to handle user-contributed scrips, and as a result I knocked that together. The original plan was to include it in RT itself at some point. 
I'd sent it to Jesse as a "heres what's been done so far", it really shouldn't have hit the contrib directory at all.

I'll have a go at bringing it up to date over the weekend - It hasn't been touched since RT was in the 1.3 tree, Jesse can you take it out of contrib?

The Autoassign scrip itself should work though.

Check that helgrim.com-AutoAssign.pm is in rt/lib/RT/Action

In mysql, do a 'SELECT name,argument,execmodule FROM scripactions;'
There should be two entries:
name                            argument     execmodule
-------------------------------------------------------------------
helgrim.com-AutoAssignAdminCc | AdminCc    | helgrim.com-AutoAssign
helgrim.com-AutoAssignAnyCc   | AdminCc,Cc | helgrim.com-AutoAssign

If not, update them by hand.

If that's still not working, can you wait till Monday so I can check it out.
