[rt-users] oracle setup

[Myers, Adam]

Craig,

I am running Oracle 9g. What I did was use the Oracle.schema file to
create the database. Then followed the instruction in the Oracle.README
file (all provided in the RT package).  Then run the configure command
with all the options for your database (make sure to use
--with-db-type=Oracle).  When running 'initialize-database', I commented
out line 136 that calls insert_schema() since I already created the
schema. The database should be initialized fine. The command I used for
this is: $ /pathto/rt/sbin/rt-setup-database --action init --dba
password --prompt-for-dba-password.

As for seeing 'Preferences' on the GUI, make sure the group of people
you want to have this option has the right 'ModifySelf'.  That will
toggle the 'Preferences' link.

How does setting up the tables fail?  What happens if you create the
tables by hand?
