However, it is important that the internal staff does not mistakingly respond with 'reply', thus I need to revoke their right to do so. If I understand the rights correctly, one has to remove ReplyToTicket as well as ModifyTicket. Taking away ModifyTicket removes other goodies though, such as changing the queue (ie. forwarding of ticket between departments). And there's no separate "change queue" privilege.

When before, it only showed the privileged users (which are in the ballpark of 3-10 per queue), it then started to show *all* users who ever submitted tickets, including obvious spam and bogus users. This leads to inacceptable long loading times (the "resolve multiple tickets" page takes about 3 minutes to load). We're currently around ticket #74000 in our installation, so there are quite some ticket owners in the database... Unfortunately, I am not completely sure if the update to 3.6.4 is the actual reason for this change in behavior, since I have also made some minor changes in the configuration (which, of course, I don't remember now). Is there a switch in the config files that might have caused this behavior?

I removed that privilege from the respective queue (it is a test queue that was never actually used), and double-checked all other queues. However, I found a couple other queues in our installation that have Rights like CreateTicket, CommentOnTicket, ReplyTicket, ModifyTicket or others (*not* OwnTicket) set. Is this a problem, too?

If you removed the OwnTicket right on Unprivileged and Everyone group of your test queue and still got a high number of people in SelectOwner, then it's probably because either one or more of your user groups contains those people, or because you made too many people privileged.

I thought I fixed everything relevant, but in my case, it might being tripped up (though only occasionally) because I customized the tag to include the queue name a la [ORG Q ID], so that it had some user friendly/usability merit.

We provide IT support for a few dozen small businesses. Most of our customers have a "point of contact" whom is responsible for handling requests/issues internally before contacting us. This isn't always the case though: there's a chance that a new employee or client may need assistance before someone gets around to creating a user in RT. Because of this, I've allowed Everyone to CreateTickets and ReplyToTickets in my only queue I've created so far: Support. I'd also like to implement SelfService, and allow Requestors to view their own tickets; I don't want them to be able to view any other Requestor's tickets. The SeeQueue permission is required for UI options/actions, but would that also let them see the subject line and/or Requestor of tickets in the queue that do not belong to them? Secondly, I see through the AutogeneratedPassword wiki item that there's a method of generating a password and email it to them. However, if I give them the ModifySelf permissions, would they then be able to change their password? I'm also seeing that auto-created users are done so as "Unprivileged": 1) can I change this to Privileged 2) is that bad thing, assuming I'm setting up permissions as described herein? For my company, I'm creating users for each technician and have created/assigned them to a group called SupportTeam with TakeTickets, StealTickets, DeleteTickets; I'm almost tempted to give all technicians full control over it as there's no trust issues between us and I'm not concerned about foul play. Bad idea? Finally, has anyone done any domain suffix matching for ticket viewing permissions? i.e. bob at acme.com and sally at acme.com have ShowTicket and ReplyToTicket rights for any ticket created by a Requestor's email matching *@acme.com.

FYI: I am running RT 3.8.1 on opensuse11; perl 5.10; mysql 5.0 I did not see same issue as described in "Message 5" below. But, I did notice one of my queues had a permissions of "OwnTicket" to group 3. When I looked; group 3 is "Everyone", but the queue it was assigned to did not exist! Not sure why, perhaps it was deleted by prior admin. So, I removed that privilege from the "unknown" queue, and now my pages are much faster (i.e; I do not have a long list of users in "Own Ticket" drop down box).

Posting the details of security-related issues to a public mailinglist without giving the folks who make a package to address a potential vulnerability is irresponsible and potentially dangerous. Thankfully, at first glance, it looks like the issue you've run into isn't particularly dangerous. RT ships with stack trace logging disabled and _generally_ the folks who have access to application logs are also the folks who manage the application. I do believe that the issue you've noticed merits a note in the config file that it's possible for sensitive data to get logged if that function is enabled. I intend to make that change for RT 3.8.3, but don't currently believe that this issue requires an accelerated release schedule.

Okay, so it seems that my problem was that I gave every queue its own separate subject line tag, but didn't add each one of these to $EmailSubjectTagRegex. I assume I need something like this?

I am using RT 3.6.3. My four questions follow: SHREDDER 1/ Shredder Only Upgrade? Could I use the new shredder from RT 3.8.2 version while still keeping the rest of RT at level 3.6.3? Could this cause any problems? How should I proceed with such upgrade? 2/ How to shred a queue whose name starts with a space? The Shredder doesn't accept such queue names. I tried all kinds of escape sequences but to no avail. LINK RIGHTS 3/ Which right does a user need for linking by 'refers to'? My users see Permission denied when trying to link (by refers to) to a ticket in a queue where they don't have sufficient rights. I'd like to assign such "linking right" on a global level, perhaps to the Everyone group, however, I don't know which specific right to set to achieve this. Is it possible to do that or is there at least some workaround? What rights should I assign to get rid of the permission denied error message? So far I have a benevolent rights setting where almost all rights are assigned to the default group Everyone, see below: Everyone: AssignCustomFields CreateSavedSearch CreateTicket EditSavedSearches LoadSavedSearch ModifyCustomField ReplyToTicket SeeCustomField SeeQueue ShowSavedSearches ShowTicket ShowTicketComments Watch Unprivileged: No rights granted.

In our current setup, we often get the same mail for the same transaction twice. It is perfectly valid in our setup for a ticket to have abc at foo.bar as the requestor of a ticket and be its owner as well. This may even be the case when abc at foo.bar is a watcher of the queue the ticket is in. I currently have set up scrips like this - On Correspond notify Requestors, Cc and AdminCc with template Correspondence - On Correspond notify Owner with template Correspondence - On Correspond notify Other Recipients with template Correspondence The same for comments, except it should not notify the Requestor. That is the way we need it. Any way to get rid of the duplicates? We are using RT 3.6 on Debian etch, and I'd like to stick with 3.6 at least until lenny is final.

I can't say that I find the latter point particularly relevant, as many users are in the habit of re-using passwords across multiple sites. If I, as an RT admin, have access to my RT users' passwords, then that may not present any risk to the security of my RT installation (as admin, I have full access anyhow), but it does potentially place those users' email accounts, bank accounts, etc. at risk if they use the same passwords on those sites as they do on my RT install. This isn't a serious issue for me personally (I use unique passwords for each site where I care about security and I don't currently use any RTs other than my own), but it is definitely significant in the larger scheme of things due to the risk it presents to users who choose to maintain a smaller collection of passwords. -- Dave Sherohman NomadNet, Inc. http://nomadnetinc.com/ From aheinlein at gmx.com Tue Feb 3 07:55:41 2009 From: aheinlein at gmx.com (Andreas Heinlein) Date: Tue, 03 Feb 2009 13:55:41 +0100 Subject: [rt-users] Security risk!

In many organizations, it is policy that admins do not know and cannot recover their users passwords, including ours. That's OK for secure applications and authentication frameworks like Windows domain logons or Kerberos. But there's no way to secure a plain http login against your own admins.

Fair point, but I still see a significant difference between "turn on this switch and we'll hand you the passwords in a log file" and the various methods you mention, any of which would require some degree of skill and/or effort to implement. Doubly so when the switch in question has other, legitimate, uses which can result in the admin accidentally making a plaintext record of the passwords without even realizing it. -- Dave Sherohman NomadNet, Inc. http://nomadnetinc.com/ From G.E.Fowler at lboro.ac.uk Tue Feb 3 09:23:26 2009 From: G.E.Fowler at lboro.ac.uk (Graeme Fowler) Date: Tue, 03 Feb 2009 14:23:26 +0000 Subject: [rt-users] Security risk!

I disagree. On rare occasions, characters *within* a password can cause problems - especially in systems where there are proxies or other handlers such as FastCGI or mod_perl2 which can exert their own translations to the data they handle. It's always useful, in that event, to be able to switch the debug level up and see what data the application is processing. I've seen several system problems in the past caused by poor, limited or non-existent escaping of characters in passwords which get translated into something else by the processing system. Think UTF-8 to other charset conversions, for example. It shouldn't be the normal mode of operation, but a high level of debug info is always a useful tool to have.

The fact that a sys admin can see a users password and then use it on bank accounts or anything else is a very scary thought, this sys admin may have access to far more sensitive systems such as finance or billing where he/she would be able to access far more information easier and quicker ... I personally think its a bug that should be looked at, but its not a security risk.

With my properly working RT installation (3.8.1 with MySQL on OS X 10.5), I tried to install some of the extensions, via CPAN. In particular, I installed RTx::Tags, RT::BugTracker, and RT::BugTracker::Public. In a bout of carelessness, I installed three at once rather than testing after each, so I'm not sure which package is causing my problems. Regardless, I now get the following message on any page (and only this message): Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at /opt/rt3/share/ html/Elements/Header line 144. Modification time on that file says it hasn't changed in almost a year (I'm not aware of CPAN tweaking file modification times).

Jesse, Since you're asking (and towards the goal of something useful coming from this thread). :) I would say that, in this case, you shouldn't end a sentence with a preposition.

One idea I've seen and quite like is what OpenLDAP does. Passwords and other security tokens are Base64 encoded in all output[*]. Sure it's a trivial encoding that anyone could decode in moments, but it prevents people trivially reading passwords over your shoulder when they are displayed on your screen.

We start using the Dashboard feature of RT here. So for testing I created a test dashboard for root to see the feature working. Cron job was set up etc. However this dashboard was never send out via mail. I then created a new dashboard for a normal RT user. This dashboard was send out via mail. Being happy now :-), I deleted the former one. The funny thing is that RT now started to send out this deleted dashboard daily per email and I'm not able to stop it doing so as it does not appear in Dashboard menu anymore. I tried creating a new dashboard again with the same name as the deleted one and deleted this again. Now I got the following error message, which is the first error I found in the logs regarding dashboard: [warning]: Unable to load dashboard 493 of subscription 494 for user root: Failed to load dashboard 493: Couldn't find row (/opt/rt3/sbin/rt-email-dashboards:120) Does anybody know what went wrong?

When the email script detects a missing dashboard, it alerts the user with a different email (using the 'Error: Missing dashboard' template). Then the script deletes the subscription (since the user would have no other way to disable that daily email). If the dashboard isn't showing up in the menu, either you deleted it (in which case RT should quickly stop mailing you about it) or you don't have permission to see it.

Each night I do a mysqldump of production and move it to development so I can work the latest version and data. Production is at 3.6.7 and Development is at 3.8.1 at the moment. I have a scrip that parses when a ticket is submitted and based on the date/time it will email a pager if it is off-hours. The scrip is running fine in production and it's been in use for over a year. But for some reason my development instance is tripping on the date/time checks. My thinking at this point is that the scrip is evaluating GMT rather than CST. I tried an RT::Logger and the hour variable is showing up as 20 (8pm) when it's should be 14 (2pm). This would confirm my suspicion about GMT. So here is the question: Did something change from 3.6.7 to 3.8.1 that would account for Scrips being processed in GMT rather than the local timezone?

I'm not familiar with the API you are referring to, but I've used the (built-in) RTx::Shredder to remove plenty of attachments without visible consequence.

I recently added some new values and then identified them with categories. When a User updates that CF, the new value goes in, but an error message appears as "User asked for an unknown update type for custom field Work-Status for RT::Ticket object #59578". Now, some of the values are repeated, but they are in a different category. I ran some queries pulling tickets with the same values (different categories), and the results seemed to ignore the category difference and used the content only, which is what I expected and would want. So, why the error? Anyone have any info on that? Thanks.

Message-ID: For some reason I thought this would be easy, but it appears not. Let's say I get a ticket opened. I need to create a child subticket and send that to a customer/vendor who needs to address part of the issue. I need to add some text to that. Is there any easy way to do this, or am I looking at hacking the source tree to do this? The issues as I see it are: 1. Forward just forwards the original mail. It either includes the existing ticket number or not, based on a option. There's no way I can find for it to assign a new ticket number. 2. It doesn't allow me to add comments above the forwarded mail. 3. The brute force "copy all", create child ticket, "paste all" doesn't work because linefeeds are removed from the pasted text. This has to do with the lines not having both CR and Linefeed when sent to Firefox and style problems the developers say, but either way it makes copy/paste useless. -- Jo Rhett Net Consonance : consonant endings by net philanthropy, open source and other randomness From jrhett at netconsonance.com Wed Feb 4 18:47:13 2009 From: jrhett at netconsonance.com (Jo Rhett) Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2009 15:47:13 -0800 Subject: [rt-users] complete docs for ExtractSubjectTagMatch?

Go not to the docs for counsel, for they will say both no and yes. "In some cases it result in performance improvements, but some setups can not handle it." Is this hardware- or memory-dependent? What are the variables in whether it improves or degrades...? At any rate, trying it now, as this sys isn't in production yet.

Indeed. It's still largely experimental. I'd always been fairly certain that it was "impossible", but Ruslan worked a whole bunch of magic. Feedback would be hugely appreciated. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I need a little guidance on a problem I'm having with RT 3.8.2 using Postfix as the MTA. The issue is that replies are not sent from RT when an external alias is used; these messages are identified as bounces because their 'Return-Path' header is empty. Replies are sent without incident when the actual address on the RT server is used. I do not have control over the remote server's configuration (running Microsoft Exchange). I do have control over my own Postfix server. The basic configuration is as follows: helpdesk-support at provider.com -- RT's queue address (for the Support queue) support at consumer.com -- Remote alias used for convenience The support at consumer.com address points to helpdesk-support at provider.com by way of a "Distribution List" which contains only one "Contact", the target address. I'm told this is how one creates an alias on Exchange without having to create a new mailbox. When Postfix receives mail by way of the alias the headers look something like this: >From MAILER-DAEMON Wed Feb 4 14:21:39 2009 Return-Path: <> X-Original-To: testinstance-support at provider.com [etc.] I do see the original destination address further down but that's expected since the message has to originate somewhere. When Postfix receives mail sent to the actual local address, the headers are more complete: >From testaccount at gmail.com Thu Feb 5 09:36:41 2009 Return-Path: X-Original-To: helpdesk-support at provider.com I realize this may be a Postfix question but I'm just not sure where to start... My understanding is that the local delivery agent is responsible for setting the "Return-Path" and "From" headers but I assumed Postfix would do that if necessary. It is doing this for messages sent directly to addresses. The remote server is not setting these headers; I verified by sniffing the SMTP session. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Once i was done testing ExternalAuth, i turned off stack traces then manually blew away those sections of the logs that contained the passwords anyway, just to keep in paranoia practice. -- /chown -R us:us /yourbase From rob.munsch at gmail.com Thu Feb 5 17:07:40 2009 From: rob.munsch at gmail.com (Rob Munsch) Date: Thu, 5 Feb 2009 17:07:40 -0500 Subject: [rt-users] FW: Quick Ticket Creation widget - how to remove it?

I have gone through all our queues, found one queue with this permission. Removed the permission, issue still persists. I've even gone through and verified disabled queue's group rights. - The explain shows 'Using filesort' and the 'tmp_table_size' should be increased. Changing this to 4 times the default has had no effect. This coupled with the fact that our DB isn't that big.

We bought the book, it is not the ultimative guide to set up a working ticket infrastructure. But it gives you some ideas how RT works, some nice examples. And it costs 30 bucks, and if it saves you 1 hour it is a good buy. The difference between 3.6 and 3.8 are marginal It is more or less only on the WebInterface (and you can still configure 3.8 to look like 3.6). But I think a really good book which gives you an idea about how to set up ticket infrastructures in complex and/or large environments would be helpful It should not only handle the technical part but also how to organize your queues. For this kind of information I think I would spend more than 30 bucks. regards sven On Do, 2009-02-05 at 17:43 +0100, Rainer Duffner wrote: > Ham MI-ID, Torsten Brumm schrieb: > > Hi Andrea, > > > > i remember a threat like this some months ago and again: Yes, the book is still actual!

I agree that it would make more sense to go the other way. I have updated the page. I do think that having it as an option in RT-core would be nice. I know for PostgreSQL versions 8.3 and higher, you can use the patch by default since FULLTEXT indexing comes with the database as a standard feature. PostgreSQL will simply convert the attachment field automatically using to_tsvector() on the fly so it will just work as is. Of course creating the needed index will greatly improve the performance. I do not know if OracleText has the same fallback in the absence of the FULLTEXT setup and index. I suspect that run-time tests for a configuration option would be needed.

Thanks for the suggestion. I did more or less follow that guide, I believe I didn't do the "make initialize-database" but created a database, imported the rt 3.4.1 dumpfile and applied the changes. I'll try to do the "make initialize-database".

RT is not an accounting system or parts system where everything has to be tidy, etc. In this case, it's the same name for the same type of data. So, other than double the work of maintaining the same values in two fields, that's a good idea. If it works, then it's fine and Todd's idea will certainly work.

From dcook at finleysd.org Fri Feb 6 17:32:35 2009 From: dcook at finleysd.org (Daniel Cook) Date: Fri, 06 Feb 2009 14:32:35 -0800 Subject: [rt-users] colorize status Message-ID: <498C4A03.4198.003E.0@finleysd.org> So I've updated the ShowStatusInColor page on the wiki to reflect how I have implemented this in 3.8.2 The question that I have is this... When replys are colorized in my list view, the way things are setup right now, it is done based on who the last person to modify the ticket was.... I have noticed that when I open a ticket that has had a reply there is a little note at the top of the ticket that sais there are new messages. This message goes away after I have viewed the message. This is how I would like this new reply type flag setup for my list view. I would like it to drop the rep flag and the reply color after I view the new message - without necessarily making any reply or physical change to the ticket. Is this easily possible? Any advise on how to go about it?

If it isn't, no problem, no changes. If it IS blank, the Ticket Status is re-set to "open". You can also create a notification scrip to check for the same thing only the action is to send an Email using a template that sends someone a message on the need to put customer info in the ticket. Description: Customer Missing on Resolved Condition: User-defined Action: Notify Owner (or whomever) Template: Missing Customer (you create this) Custom Condition: # Check for Ticket Status changed to "resolved" my $trans = $self->TransactionObj; my $ticket = $self->TicketObj; if ($trans->Type eq "Status" && $trans->NewValue eq "resolved") && $ticket->FirstCustomFieldValue('Customer') eq ' ' return 1; Hope this helps.

I have looked through the mailing list archives and online documentation, but I haven't found an answer to my question, perhaps you can point me in the right direction - I may have missed the right HOWTO/Readme... I would like to modify some or RT's labels in the web UI, e.g. changing "RT at a glance" to "Overview", and renaming "ticket" to "request", and also removing some of the UI elements (some dropdown boxes for example). Since these are mostly 'cosmetic changes', I am sure this is possible, but how would I go about it ? Is there a configuration file for the label names somewhere, or would I have to change the Perl code and redeploy ? Thanks for your help !

So all new tickets have to pass thru the filter before they make it to the queue. It works fine for most of the tickets. However, once in a while one or two spams that manage to pass through the filter as ham and hence create tickets. It is pretty embarrassing. For regular emails I can just take those emails as it is and then pass it through my spam learner and that works fine too. However, I am not sure how I can do the same for a ticket. I created a SPAM queue and I gave users' right to drop any ticket that is a sure spam and just drop them in that queue. So now what I need is to find a way to take all tickets that are in SPAM queue and run them through my spam learner. I do not know how to do that. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated!

I've configured the RT VM to be actually really quite weedy (32-bit and only 2 GB RAM), and perhaps I need to change that, but I figure that VMware ESX probably does quite a good job of caching the disk its using anyway. The actual physical hardware is a quad socket quad core machine with 64 GB of RAM. The underlying storage is StorageWorks EVA on a SAN, so it should be pretty quick.

It currently is configured with 4GB of RAM and 2 processors (32-bit). We use a SAN on the backend for storage as well (XioTech, IIRC.) Our system has been live for about three weeks and it just passed 1K tickets. Things seem snappy, though we experienced some slowdown after our initial cut. This was due to memory leaks in mod-perl (we restart apache every night now) and some queries that could have used some indexes (which BP, operating within a support contract, helped us create.)

I've configured the RT VM to be actually really quite weedy (32-bit and only 2 GB RAM), and perhaps I need to change that, but I figure that VMware ESX probably does quite a good job of caching the disk its using anyway. The actual physical hardware is a quad socket quad core machine with 64 GB of RAM. The underlying storage is StorageWorks EVA on a SAN, so it should be pretty quick. Has anyone tried this sort of thing? Am I about to burn myself badly? Our turnover of tickets is pretty low - only a few hundred tickets a week.

Message-ID: RT 3.82, MySQL 5.0.67, Apache 2.2.11, Mod-Perl 2.0.4. Is there a reasonably current compilation of recommended hints, tips, suggestions on having a smooth running RT system? Someone mentioned a memory leak in mod-perl and restarting Apache daily. There are many mentions of this index or that index and I've no idea which (if any or all) would be a good idea to have. The hardware, the MySQL database, and the Apache webserver are all solely dedicated to the RT system. I don't mind suggestions that might negatively impact an aspect of the system unrelated to RT (since there really isn't anything else on here.) There have been a lot of index suggestions (some about Query Builder, or RT-Shredder, or during an upgrade/migration process of database or RT system, etc.) I try to sort at least by date to hopefully get more current messages. I've no idea if these indices some regarding RT 3.4, others regarding MySQL 4.x, etc. The system works fine, and I suppose a not-broke-don't-fix approach also works :) But I figure if there's anything I can do to help make the RT experience better, that's good too :) For starters, I'll restart Apache daily around 2am.

I do use Virtuozzo (the commercial version of OpenVZ), but I'm not sure I would trust it with RT ;-) OTOH, it's mostly because I like the way perl-stuff is handled in FreeBSD.

Hi Mike, Someone asked about experiences from others, I posted mine - I am working with VMware products for years and I also built certified appliances for VMware ESX (with Postgres databases inside). So I just thought I will share my personal experience here. "Real" contributions to the RT community: I think our RT appliance is a quite real contribution. Just to mention, we published the appliance and also the way we build it (with dab, GPL licensed). Proxmox VE is GPL, also the RT appliance. So all I mentioned are GPL products - available for free for everyone. FYI: we discussed this with bestpractical and they liked it. > I'm not saying I don't want you mentioning it, but I personally would > appreciate it if you could tone down the advertising. I post my experience with RT and virtualization and the way we work at Proxmox. If you are interested - read it. If not, just ignore it. But if you feel still uncomfortable, maybe I can give you more information to let you feel better :-)? BTW, quite a lot downloaded our RT appliance and there are already some system in productions - increasing the RT community - so we can't be that wrong.

RT-Users The question was "Anyone use RT virtualised?". Your answer was "Yes, we do it in Proxmox, and by the way here are the reasons why proxmox is better than other virtualisation products" rather than "yes, we do it in Proxmox, here's some info about running RT in proxmox" 2. The wiki When proxmox was added to the installation instructions page, rather than adding an appropriate entry for proxmox in the specifics section (as it is now) or below, it was added at the very top in its own section so a paraphrased version of the page looked like this: Installation Instructions: 1. Proxmox 2. Source 3. Platform-Specific I see no problem whatsoever in putting a link to proxmox installation instructions on that page, in fact it's THE place to put it, but I found making it the number one entry on the page in that way distasteful.

I tested all on local storage (xeon server, fast hardware raid with fast cache enabled). So if you run database intensive application a significant performance loss as soon as it goes to virtualized disks. As OS virtualization does not use virtualized disks, it much better in this discipline. Another important point I got: if you run more VM (with virtual disks) on the same host the IO performance goes faster down compared to a system where ONE Linux Kernel is doing the IO access. Overview OS virtualization technologies: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jail_(computer_security) I highly recommend to go for a fast SAN if you use VMWare (also VMWare suggests this). > 2.

Sorry, looks like you got only the half story here. I was asked by Jesse from bestpractical to put this information on the wiki pages. As the wiki software and the navigation structure is very bad and I found no info where to place it I wrote the info on top AND then I informed/asked bestpractial to review it and asked to move to the right place - and someone moved it to the right place within days. Looks that you misunderstood this. > I by no means want to discourage people from using proxmox, I don't want > to discourage you from recommending it to people as an option, I don't > even wish to suggest your contributions to the community are anything > less than angelic. > > I just thought that the way you were advertising it was very overbearing > and appeared intensely commercial. I hope I cleared everything: but why are you talking about commercial interests here? The appliance is not commercial, its free and GPL. Lets go back to RT issues, sorry for writing non RT stuff to this list but I just want to clear this.

Try deleting any sessions over a couple of days old and then optimize the table. I cannot help with the specific commands since we use PostgreSQL for our RT instance but in SQL I run a command like: DELETE FROM sessions WHERE lastupdated < '2009-1-30'; or even TRUNCATE TABLE sessions; to get them all. You may just have a bloat problem. Try a SELECT COUNT(*) FROM sessions; Hope this helps.

In 3.8 the lines in RT_Config.pm are: =item C<$WebSessionClass> C<$WebSessionClass> is the class you wish to use for managing Sessions. It defaults to use your SQL database, but if you are using MySQL 3.x and plans to use non-ascii Queue names, uncomment and add this line to F will prevent session corruption. =cut # Set($WebSessionClass , 'Apache::Session::File'); You should be able to add this line to your RT_SiteConfig.pm and then restart RT to use the file version of session storage. That should get you working until your admin returns.

Ok,

If I:

    - Turn off the HTML composer
    - Turn off hard wrapping in the plain-text composition window
    - Go into my preferences and set RT to show plain text mail in a
      monospace font (inside a 
, essentially)

Then yes, RT will not wrap the content of your message. 

I'm not really sure how much of a bug I consider that.

I'd be happy to see a css patch which improves the wrapping of plain
text mail when you've told it to use a monospace font.

I've been looking at this today and I have it working, but I think the
code needs a bit of a cleanup.

Looking in the files the code that shows the info at the top of the
ticket is in /opt/rt3/share/html/Ticket/Elements/ShowUpdateStatus so I
sourced much of the code from there.

I changed your updated statusInColor code form the WIKI.

# Show status in colour.
sub statusInColor {
	my $Ticket = shift;
	my $status = $Ticket->Status;
	my $css = "status" . lc $status;
	my $cssreply = "status" . lc "reply";
	my $LastUpdater = $Ticket->LastUpdatedByObj->EmailAddress;
	my $TicketRequestors =
$Ticket->Requestors->MemberEmailAddressesAsString;
	my $TicketCC = $Ticket->Cc->MemberEmailAddressesAsString;
	my $CurrentUser = $session{'CurrentUser'}->EmailAddress;

# Added $CurentUser ne $LastUpdater to prevent showing New Reply tag
when the last updater is the current user.
	if (($CurrentUser ne $LastUpdater) && ($TicketRequestors =~
$LastUpdater) || ($TicketCC =~ $LastUpdater))
	{
		my $txn = $Ticket->SeenUpTo or return \"
$status
";
#        my $TicketLink = RT->Config->Get('WebPath')
."/Ticket/Display.html?id=". $Ticket->id. "#txn-".$txn->id;
# Comment out the line above and uncomment the following line to mark
posts as seen when following link.
		my $TicketLink = RT->Config->Get('WebPath')
."/Ticket/Display.html?id=". $Ticket->id ."&MarkAsSeen=1".
"#txn-".$txn->id;
		$status = "
$status New
Reply
";
	}
	else {
		$status = "
$status
";
	}

	return \"$status";

}

Subject: [rt-users] colorize status

So I've updated the ShowStatusInColor page on the wiki to reflect how I
have implemented this in 3.8.2  The question that I have is this...

When replys are colorized in my list view, the way things are setup
right now, it is done based on who the last person to modify the ticket
was....  

I have noticed that when I open a ticket that has had a reply there is a
little note at the top of the ticket that sais there are new messages.
This message goes away after I have viewed the message.  

This is how I would like this new reply type flag setup for my list
view.  I would like it to drop the rep flag and the reply color after I
view the new message - without necessarily making any reply or physical
change to the ticket.

Is this easily possible?  Any advise on how to go about it?

Thanks,

Dan

Perhaps a documentation bug?  There actually isn't much RT  
documentation saying "these are the settings we expect to work best  
for most people"

You haven't even told me what this setting is...

I'd be fine to disable this if it's not what you expect/test for/etc.   
Just tell me what setting this is.

The only thing I can find in the configuration is $PlainTextPre which  
was set to 1.  I changed it to 0 and restarted apache and this has not  
changed anything.  I even created another test ticket to be certain.

FWIW, this setting is now 0 and there are still 
 tags in the  
output.




Go into my preferences and

$ grep TextPre /usr/local/etc/rt38/*
/usr/local/etc/rt38/RT_Config.pm:=item C<$PlainTextPre>
/usr/local/etc/rt38/RT_Config.pm:to be displayed correctly.  By  
setting $PlainTextPre they'll be
/usr/local/etc/rt38/RT_Config.pm:Set($PlainTextPre, 0);
/usr/local/etc/rt38/RT_SiteConfig.pm:Set( $PlainTextPre, 0 );

Apache has been fully stopped and started and this behavior continues.

Perhaps deleting the mason cache before restarting apache may fix it?

Think I've found part of the why, if not all of it.

in Ticket/Elements/Tabs on line 64:

    if ( defined $session{'tickets'} ) {

isn't evaluating to true. For some reason RT doesn't see us as having a
session.

It's possible it is related to how we have auth set up. We're using Apache's
authnz_ldap to set REMOTE_USER so all of our internal apps are
single-signon. But that by itself shouldn't prevent sessions.

I didn't set that part up so I'll have to check into that a little further.

Did some quick testing, my browser does have a RT session cookie. It stays
the same when I log in and the At a Glance page is displayed.

Session ID stays the same when I click on a queue name.

Session ID changes every time I click on a Ticket link in a search result.

I haven't had to dig into how RT manages sessions, so if anyone has any
hints as to why the session cookies would be reset when moving to
Ticket/Display, let me know.

Subject: [rt-users] ShowMessageStanza callback with 3.8.0 + html escaping on
	output text
Message-ID: <49924D2D.40102@nuix.com>

Hi,

I have written a basic ShowMessageStanza callback following instructions 
from http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/CustomizingWithCallbacks/2212 as 
follows to create links automatically when matching patterns.  In this 
case, the pattern is 4 alphabetic characters followed by 4 digits.

<%init>
my $val = $$content;
use bytes;
$val =~ s|\b[A-Z]{4}\d{4}\b|$&<\/a>|g;
$$content = $val;

<%args>
$content => undef


The code runs as expected, however my output has been html escaped, so 
if I see the message body.

Here is ABCD1234 as requested.

This appears in the browser window as:

Here is ABCD1234 as 
requested.

Is there some trick I need to do to make this not escape my output?

Ok - perhaps the wiki is out of date.  I've managed to do this using a 
Custom MakeClicky action as specified here: 
http://www.l2c2.co.in/rt-3.8.0/docs/extending_clickable_links.pod.

Guess the wiki should be updated..

What do you mean? The queue order inside the quicksearch? This is in alphabetical order or do you mean inside a queue, the order of tickets? For this have a look for global setting inside RT_SiteConfig.pm or under user prefs for user based.

Asunto: Re: [rt-users] colorize status

I've been looking at this today and I have it working, but I think the
code needs a bit of a cleanup.

Looking in the files the code that shows the info at the top of the
ticket is in /opt/rt3/share/html/Ticket/Elements/ShowUpdateStatus so I
sourced much of the code from there.

I changed your updated statusInColor code form the WIKI.

# Show status in colour.
sub statusInColor {
	my $Ticket = shift;
	my $status = $Ticket->Status;
	my $css = "status" . lc $status;
	my $cssreply = "status" . lc "reply";
	my $LastUpdater = $Ticket->LastUpdatedByObj->EmailAddress;
	my $TicketRequestors =
$Ticket->Requestors->MemberEmailAddressesAsString;
	my $TicketCC = $Ticket->Cc->MemberEmailAddressesAsString;
	my $CurrentUser = $session{'CurrentUser'}->EmailAddress;

# Added $CurentUser ne $LastUpdater to prevent showing New Reply tag
when the last updater is the current user.
	if (($CurrentUser ne $LastUpdater) && ($TicketRequestors =~
$LastUpdater) || ($TicketCC =~ $LastUpdater))
	{
		my $txn = $Ticket->SeenUpTo or return \"
$status
";
#        my $TicketLink = RT->Config->Get('WebPath')
."/Ticket/Display.html?id=". $Ticket->id. "#txn-".$txn->id;
# Comment out the line above and uncomment the following line to mark
posts as seen when following link.
		my $TicketLink = RT->Config->Get('WebPath')
."/Ticket/Display.html?id=". $Ticket->id ."&MarkAsSeen=1".
"#txn-".$txn->id;
		$status = "
$status New
Reply
";
	}
	else {
		$status = "
$status
";
	}

	return \"$status";

}

Subject: [rt-users] colorize status

So I've updated the ShowStatusInColor page on the wiki to reflect how I
have implemented this in 3.8.2  The question that I have is this...

When replys are colorized in my list view, the way things are setup
right now, it is done based on who the last person to modify the ticket
was....  

I have noticed that when I open a ticket that has had a reply there is a
little note at the top of the ticket that sais there are new messages.
This message goes away after I have viewed the message.  

This is how I would like this new reply type flag setup for my list
view.  I would like it to drop the rep flag and the reply color after I
view the new message - without necessarily making any reply or physical
change to the ticket.

Is this easily possible?  Any advise on how to go about it?

Thanks,

Dan

I want change the sorting order of RT-queues, because our external customers (unprivileged users) can see only one queue "inbox". Also Unprivileged users can create tickets only on this queue.

After a supporter is notified, that a ticket is created, this supporter log on the server and move the ticket from inbox to the appropriate queue. The problem is, that when a support log on RT-system the inbox queue appear on the middle of the site. We have about 40 queues !!!

Therefore I want change the sorting order of my queues so, that when a supporter log on, he will see inbox queue on the TOP of Quick-search tab.

Best regards from Germany,
Tariq

What do you mean? The queue order inside the quicksearch? This is in alphabetical order or do you mean inside a queue, the order of tickets? For this have a look for global setting inside RT_SiteConfig.pm or under user prefs for user based.

Hello Alberto,

many Thanks for your answer !!!

The right's configurations are ok. The only problem is, that on the quick search tab the queues are sorted  alphabetically. And I will define my own sorting order (not alphabetically) !!!!

Hello Tariq!

You have to modify the "RT_Config.pm" file, or creating a new file where you generate the new combobox (or textbox,...).

But I suspect the problem is about permissions. Are they right?? Because my customers (each customer, see a concrete queue) only watch their queues :)

Asunto: Re: [rt-users] colorize status

I've been looking at this today and I have it working, but I think the
code needs a bit of a cleanup.

Looking in the files the code that shows the info at the top of the
ticket is in /opt/rt3/share/html/Ticket/Elements/ShowUpdateStatus so I
sourced much of the code from there.

I changed your updated statusInColor code form the WIKI.

# Show status in colour.
sub statusInColor {
	my $Ticket = shift;
	my $status = $Ticket->Status;
	my $css = "status" . lc $status;
	my $cssreply = "status" . lc "reply";
	my $LastUpdater = $Ticket->LastUpdatedByObj->EmailAddress;
	my $TicketRequestors =
$Ticket->Requestors->MemberEmailAddressesAsString;
	my $TicketCC = $Ticket->Cc->MemberEmailAddressesAsString;
	my $CurrentUser = $session{'CurrentUser'}->EmailAddress;

# Added $CurentUser ne $LastUpdater to prevent showing New Reply tag
when the last updater is the current user.
	if (($CurrentUser ne $LastUpdater) && ($TicketRequestors =~
$LastUpdater) || ($TicketCC =~ $LastUpdater))
	{
		my $txn = $Ticket->SeenUpTo or return \"
$status
";
#        my $TicketLink = RT->Config->Get('WebPath')
."/Ticket/Display.html?id=". $Ticket->id. "#txn-".$txn->id;
# Comment out the line above and uncomment the following line to mark
posts as seen when following link.
		my $TicketLink = RT->Config->Get('WebPath')
."/Ticket/Display.html?id=". $Ticket->id ."&MarkAsSeen=1".
"#txn-".$txn->id;
		$status = "
$status New
Reply
";
	}
	else {
		$status = "
$status
";
	}

	return \"$status";

}

So I've updated the ShowStatusInColor page on the wiki to reflect how I
have implemented this in 3.8.2  The question that I have is this...

When replys are colorized in my list view, the way things are setup
right now, it is done based on who the last person to modify the ticket
was....  

I have noticed that when I open a ticket that has had a reply there is a
little note at the top of the ticket that sais there are new messages.
This message goes away after I have viewed the message.  

This is how I would like this new reply type flag setup for my list
view.  I would like it to drop the rep flag and the reply color after I
view the new message - without necessarily making any reply or physical
change to the ticket.

Is this easily possible?  Any advise on how to go about it?

Thanks,

I wouldn't mind seeing a "Sort" field added to the configuration of
queues -- similar to the one when creating values for a multi-select
custom field.

In the meantime, I used the cheap and easy workaround of inserting a
sort code at the beginning of the queue name.  So, my alpha sorted
queues look like:

1-Low          (1-5 are my "input" queues, with 2-Normal the default)
2-Normal
3-High
4-Urgent
5-Emergency
Admin          (The alpha queues are fine sorted as-is)
Building Services
Delivery
 . . . etc . . .
Z-Jane         (The Z-* queues are approvals -- i.e. an approval is
Z-John          is created when a ticket is created or moved here)
Z-Mary

In some ways, I like using this method a little better than having a
hidden sort field since the queue name indicates it's purpose
(especially the Z-* queues) without having to spell it out.

Hello Kenneth,

thanks for your help, but I already tried that. It generates a new type
of problem, every click on a link logs out the user.
I read a thread that seemed to indicate that this could be Web
client-related, unfortunately there were no follow ups on that info.

Searches still hang almost every time,  those few times that a search
runs correctly, clicking on one of the resulting tickets cause the same
kind of hang.

Regards,

/Anne-Marie

That behavior (every click brings you to a new link) is a sessions
issue, as RT can't find wherever your storing sessions.

If it is doing this and searches are still hanging, it sounds like the
issue is not related to sessions.

Subject: [rt-users] RT 3.8.2 Dashboard Can't find object SearchIds
In-Reply-To: 
References: 
Message-ID: 

Greetings,

I've searched for this issue on the archives and couldn't find
anything related to it.

RT 3.8.2 clean install.
When going to Tools->Dashboards->Queries I get the following error message:

Can't locate object method "SearchIds" via package "RT::Dashboard" at
/opt/rt3/share/html/Dashboards/Queries.html line 95,  line 47.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Roy.

Any particular reason you know about that you're running a 
'unsupported'  version of RT?

RT 3.6.7 is the latest stable RT 3.6 release and RT 3.8.2 is the latest 
RT 3.8 release. I have had the same problems with sessions being logged 
out for every click and my solution was to edit

SetupSessionCookies 

I think, to enable transactions.

Just curious why you want to create Low, Normal, High and other queues
when you have Priority field?

Anyway, you can add special portlets and instead of one QuickSearch
block you'll have three, for example:
* first one with Low, Normal....
* other queues
* approvals

I use this as my Resolve template:

Subject: Resolved: {$Ticket->Subject}

According to our records, your request has been resolved. If you have any
further questions or concerns, please respond to this message.

Comments about the resolution of this issue:

{
my $resolution_comment;
my $Transactions = $Ticket->Transactions;

$Transactions->Limit( FIELD => 'Type', VALUE => 'Comment' );
$Transactions->OrderByCols (
{ FIELD => 'Created', ORDER => 'DESC' },
{ FIELD => 'id', ORDER => 'DESC' },
);

my $CommentObj = $Transactions->First;
if( $CommentObj && $CommentObj->id ) {
$resolution_comment = $CommentObj->Content;
}

$resolution_comment;
}


When you resolve a ticket, RT records whatever you write as a comment.
 This template will pull that last comment into the outgoing Resolve
email.  This is this or something very much like it is on the wiki, I
think, I didn't write it myself.

How clean is this install?  The error you quote would happen if you
were running templates from 3.8.1 against code form 3.8.2
I suggest clearing your mason cache to ensure you're running
the 3.8.2 templates

Good question!  The main reason is to keep things as simple as possible
for the user.  Each of the queues has appropriate defaults (such as
priority, due in # days, etc.)  Rather than trying to instruct my users
(primarily requestors) to fill in these values correctly (and honestly,
getting them filled in at all), I can simply have them create a ticket
in the right queue based on the nature of their problem.

That would be great for the Quick Search, but the sorting order also
comes into play using the drop-downs (moving a ticket to a different
queue, for instance)

Message-ID: <4992E7A5.20603@utilyx.com>

Hi there,

i've been running RT 3.8.1 in an ubuntu8.04 vm on vmware esxi (free) for 
just over two weeks.
the VM is super weedy - 32bit, 256MB RAM, vdisk size 2GB , havent put 
any settings on processor limits yet.

It's running on local storage on a really on Dell blade.

It's my IT support RT system, so at present i'm the only one who uses 
it. it gets about 10 new tickets a day, and 50ish transactions a day. it 
handles everything pretty well for such a slow machine...

I've configured the RT VM to be actually really quite weedy (32-bit and only 2 GB RAM), and perhaps I need to change that, but I figure that VMware ESX probably does quite a good job of caching the disk its using anyway.  The actual physical hardware is a quad socket quad core machine with 64 GB of RAM.  The underlying storage is StorageWorks EVA on a SAN, so it should be pretty quick.

Hi Kevin,

 Thanks for the reply. Was using an alias to restart RT including
cleaning the Mason cache.
 The alias rm command was pointing to the wrong directory, so cache
was never cleared.

 Thanks again. This issue is now solved.

Click "Preferences"
Scroll down to the "Ticket Display" section.

You're looking for "Use Monospace Font"

http://www.grabup.com/uploads/ea9bbd8f14b00d950ce86cd25a080989.png

It has the help text: "Use fixed-width font to display plaintext messages"

Thanks, Jesse.   Should I assume that this is a personal version of  
PlainTextPre ?  If so, I would possibly change the either the text  
description and/or the implementation to simply use a fixed width font  
but allow word wrap.  This could be done with modern stylesheets.

Actually, just this morning, I ran across:

white-space: pre-wrap

(That's a little different than "use a fixed width font", primarily in
how it handles email text like .)

Give that a shot. If it works well for you, I'll make the change to the
default styles.

Subject: [rt-users] Merge tix with matching CFs
Message-ID: <8fae230c0902110953n5596aa2fg4f80ec311764547e@mail.gmail.com>

Mornin',

I found a post from a ways back asking how to do this, with a
nonfunctional scrip code.  The OP wants to do what i want to do:

"What I am trying to do now, is on each ticket submission, Extract
that [Custom] field
and then check to see if there is another ticket that has that same number
in the custom field and if they match, merge the tickets."

My first question is, assuming a reasonably tuned MySQL suitable to
its (fast) hardware: how horrible would this be in an ever-growing DB?
 It must search the DB for every last ticket and compare the two CFs,
yes?

The posted code was:
---
my $TicketsObj = RT::Tickets->new($RT::SystemUser);
$TicketsObj->LimitQueue(VALUE => 'AfterHoursSupport');
$TicketsObj->LimitCustomField(CUSTOMFIELD => 'AfterHoursTicketNumber',
OPERATOR => '=', VALUE => $AHTixNum);

if ($TicketsObj->Count == 0) { return 1; }
my $id = undef;
while (my $ticket = $TicketsObj->Next) {
next if $self->TicketObj->Id == $ticket->Id;
$id = $ticket->Id;
last;
}

$id || return 1;

$RT::Logger->debug("Merging ticket " . $self->TicketObj->Id . " into $id
because of OA number match.");
$self->TicketObj->MergeInto($id);


1;
---

The OP did not specify exactly which chunks went where, but that he'd
tried various combinations of condition and prep.
My first thought was that this was incorrect; the condition is
OnCreate and no code need go in that block.  Prep should be the field
search and compare, and cleanup the ticket merge itself, yes?

(the above is the OP's exact code and doesn't reflect my own setup).

RT has Mason auto-escape output. You can prevent this on a per-print basis
with something like <% $var |n%>

IIRC MakeClicky also escapes, but 3.8.2 includes the ability to not do so

JAlexson,


	I, too, have wondered if there was a way to modify RT to allow a User 
to select one specific Queue as the one to appear first on the 
drop-down. In our installation, a User may be able to create tickets in 
many queues, but 90% of these may be in one queue.
	Jesse, are there any plans to allow some sort of option to allow a user 
to select the order queues appear in the drop-down? Thanks.

This is not an especially difficult customization to make, but it
seems the simplest
means would be to change the queue name to alter its position in
ASCIIbetical sort
i.e; precede it with a !

Jerrad,


	What if two different sets of users put the "!" in front of different 
queues? Especially if they can creates tickets in the same queues but 
want a different queue sequence? I was thinking of some sort of user 
preference. Thanks.

Assuming you mean the New Ticket In drop down, that is controllable
by the Default Queue personal preference in RT 3.8.  You can also
set a global default in your site config

I will admit my sysadmin did the upgrade, so I can't say for sure, but we
are having problems with binary attachments (as hinted at in
UPGRADING.mysql).

Assume the worst and we only followed the steps in the upgrade document and
not the upgrade.mysql one. We switched a few weeks ago. Is it possible to
run those steps now or will that make things worse?

Yep, however most probably binary attachments you added during last
days will be broken.

You're welcome. I liked your idea and thought it would be good for my
users too, and they are loving it.

We dont use the self service interface yet, but I had a look at it
anyway and it was showing the colours as well as New Reply. Do you not
see it?

Alex,

Thanks a ton!

Your solution provides nice combination of the features listed on the
page with the added bonus of marking the messages as read.

Quick question for you... I noticed that this works great for my side of
things... Is there any way to have the "New Reply" show up for general
users in the self service interface as well?

I've been looking at this today and I have it working, but I think the
code needs a bit of a cleanup.

Looking in the files the code that shows the info at the top of the
ticket is in /opt/rt3/share/html/Ticket/Elements/ShowUpdateStatus so I
sourced much of the code from there.

I changed your updated statusInColor code form the WIKI.

# Show status in colour.
sub statusInColor {
	my $Ticket = shift;
	my $status = $Ticket->Status;
	my $css = "status" . lc $status;
	my $cssreply = "status" . lc "reply";
	my $LastUpdater = $Ticket->LastUpdatedByObj->EmailAddress;
	my $TicketRequestors =
$Ticket->Requestors->MemberEmailAddressesAsString;
	my $TicketCC = $Ticket->Cc->MemberEmailAddressesAsString;
	my $CurrentUser = $session{'CurrentUser'}->EmailAddress;

# Added $CurentUser ne $LastUpdater to prevent showing New Reply tag
when the last updater is the current user.
	if (($CurrentUser ne $LastUpdater) && ($TicketRequestors =~
$LastUpdater) || ($TicketCC =~ $LastUpdater))
	{
		my $txn = $Ticket->SeenUpTo or return \"
$status
";
#        my $TicketLink = RT->Config->Get('WebPath')
."/Ticket/Display.html?id=". $Ticket->id. "#txn-".$txn->id;
# Comment out the line above and uncomment the following line to mark
posts as seen when following link.
		my $TicketLink = RT->Config->Get('WebPath')
."/Ticket/Display.html?id=". $Ticket->id ."&MarkAsSeen=1".
"#txn-".$txn->id;
		$status = "
$status New
Reply
";
	}
	else {
		$status = "
$status
";
	}

	return \"$status";

}

Subject: [rt-users] colorize status

So I've updated the ShowStatusInColor page on the wiki to reflect how I
have implemented this in 3.8.2  The question that I have is this...

When replys are colorized in my list view, the way things are setup
right now, it is done based on who the last person to modify the ticket
was....  

I have noticed that when I open a ticket that has had a reply there is a
little note at the top of the ticket that sais there are new messages.
This message goes away after I have viewed the message.  

This is how I would like this new reply type flag setup for my list
view.  I would like it to drop the rep flag and the reply color after I
view the new message - without necessarily making any reply or physical
change to the ticket.

Is this easily possible?  Any advise on how to go about it?

Thanks,

Dan

Subject: [rt-users] tracking tickets which have been replied to?
Message-ID: 

Okay, this is so obvious of a requirement in a ticket system that I've  
been spinning in circles assuming I'm overlooking something.  However,  
I haven't found it, so could someone please clue me in how to do this?

Ticket opened by a customer - needs response
Ticket replied to by helpdesk - has been handled
Ticket replied to by a customer - needs response again

Unfortunately, I see nothing in RT which will highlight that message  
and bring it up on anyone's screen as needing action.  Yes, an e-mail  
will go out.  But I'm looking for the following kind of things:

1. If not responded to within a given period, unassign from owner and/ 
or escalate in some visible fashion

2. Bring it to the top of everyone's list as needing action.

I'm guessing that the solution will rely on something like this:

A) A global script to lower priority on Comment or Correspondence (or  
Resolve) below a certain number
B) A global script to raise priority on update from customer above  
that certain number
C) An rt-crontool script to annoy people about priority > certain  
number unanswered tickets

Has anyone else already run down this road?

Thanks Mark

 

I tried that but it doesn't seem to work. Here's the code I put in the
scrip;

 

my $tickets = new RT::Tickets(RT->SystemUser)

my $id = $self->TicketObj->id;

my $queue = $self->TicketObj->QueueObj->Name;

 

return 1 unless (defined($id)); # Can this be undefined?

 

 $tickets->FromSQL('Type = "reminder" AND RefersTo="'.$id.'"');

 while (my $ticket = $tickets->Next) {

 $RT::Logger->info("Closing associated reminder");

 $ticket->SetStatus("resolved"); 

}

 return 1; 

 

 

I have zero knowledge of  perl so I don't know if this is correct.

 

Regards

Looks to me like
http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/OnQueueChangeFixReminders
  should
get you most of the way there as a jumping-off point.  Obviously, you'd
change the scrip condition to "On Resolve" and you'd use a
$ticket->SetStatus('resolved') call in place of the
$Ticket->SetQueue($queue) in the while loop...

If I set a reminder for a ticket, after the ticket is resolved the
reminder is still active. Is there anyway to automate closing the
reminders on resolution of the ticket?

Not exactly what you are looking for, but I set the status to stalled
when I am waiting for input from the user.  Then the default global
script:

  On Correspond Open Tickets with template Blank 

will open the ticket again when the user (or anybody else) responds
normally (as opposed to responding with a comment).

A canned search for open tickets sorted by last updated time should
bubble it to the top of the list. I have such a bookmarked search
running as my status display every 10 minutes or so.

Subject: [rt-users] Everyone rights Create/Reply Tickets for multi-queue
	setup
Message-ID: 

For random users to create a ticket via email into a queue, the Everyone group need only the Global Right Create Ticket?  And to reply to that ticket to answer questions that support staff might have for the requestor, the global right ReplyTicket is the only one needed?  No end-user/requestor will ever use the website.  Any/all communication with the requestor will be via email to the user and an email response back from the user.

I wanted to check, because the documentation originally starts with SeeQueue and CommentOnTicket for Everyone as a Global Right as well.  Somewhere along the line, I think I added ShowTicket as well after reading some other doc.

I removed CommentOnTicket from Everyone, since only support staff should Comment anyway.

The reason this created a problem for us, is because we have three queues: helpdesk@, billing@, and managers at .  Our random end-users send email to one of the first two (although I guess since Create/Reply is Global Everyone, they could also do the same to managers@ but that's not publicized so hopefully nobody will ever get to it.)  That's our queue for escalation purposes internally.

When everyone had SeeQueue & ShowTicket, a staff person logging into RT's At A Glance in 10 Newest Unowned Tickets, would see both the Helpdesk and Billing queue and tickets.  But of course, helpdesk only wants to see helpdesk stuff, and billing only wants to see billing stuff.  So I removed SQ/ST rights from Everyone and only left Create/ReplyTix for Everyone.

Now when helpdesk person logs in, he only sees helpdesk stuff (same w/accounting.)  So is having only CT/RT rights for Everyone global ok?  It seems to be.

The managers@ queue is used to move a ticket from helpdesk@ or billing@ into the managers@ queue, so the manager on duty can handle the tix.

This is RT382, with MySQL5067, Apache 2211 and ModPerl204.

Thank you,
PH

Thanks.  It's an interesting idea, but I'm not sure that it makes the  
most sense because it requires extra action by the lowest paid  
people.  Unless I could automatically reset the state appropriately...

Subject: [rt-users] queue tag moved from left of subject to right of

Message-ID: 

This seems to be a recurring issue:
	http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/82186
	http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/81328
and others.

Using RT382 and we see the same thing.

During the 82186 (this) thread, there's mention of having given every queue its own different subject line tag.  I happen to fall into this category as well.  I have several queues, and each has a different subject tag (Configuration -> Queues -> ClickonQueue then see the "Subject Tag" entry.)  In particular, I've a helpdesk@ queue which has Subject Tag of "Helpdesk Support" and a billing@ queue which has Subject Tag of "Billing Support".

I tried to follow the instructions about changing EmailSubjectTagRegex to Set(...$rtname|helpdesk|billing...) and I just make that change in RT_SiteConfig.pm?

The last msg on 2009-02-02 from jpierce shows "...the other half..." and I'm not sure where that goes.  Does that also go into RT_SiteConfig.pm?

Or do these changes occur in the local/lib/RT/Interface/Email_Local.pm which is referenced at codepad: http://codepad.org/pSthWrxD?

Thank you,

Subject: [rt-users] Content broken on latest RTFM
Message-ID: <4994059F.10808@doodle.com>

Hi all

I'm trying to migrate from an old server to a fresh installation on a 
new server.

Old server:
Debian etch
Package request-tracker3.4     Version 3.4.5
Package rtfm                   Version 2.0.3
MySQL 5.0

New Server:
Debian etch
Package request-tracker3.6     Version 3.6.1
RTFM installed from source     Version 2.4.1
MySQL 5.0

Problem:
The articles have no content, and when I try to create a new article I 
cannot enter any content because I just see the title "Content" without 
any input fields (?!?). It all works fine on the old installation.

I have read the mailing list archives, where I found several posts 
regarding a similar problem (database not properly migrated). However, I 
think I did it correctly...

What I did:
- Run migration tool (sbin/migrate-2.0-to-2.1) on old (!) server, which 
seemed to work fine and did a bunch of stuff.
- Dump the RT database, import it on new server
- Install RT 3.6, run RT 3.6 database migration script 
(/usr/sbin/rt-setup-database-3.6 |--action init --dba root 
--prompt|-for-dba-password)
- Now RT 3.6 itself seems to work fine
- Download RTFM 2.4.1, install it over the debian package 
(/usr/local/share/request-tracker3.6/)
- Migrate the RTFM database as described in the RTFM manual 
(rt-setup-database --action schema/acl/insert for version 2.1.0, 2.1.30, 
2.2RC2)

Now I have the following tables:
+-------------------------+
| Tables_in_rtdb          |
+-------------------------+
| ACL                     |
| Attachments             |
| Attributes              |
| CachedGroupMembers      |
| CustomFieldValues       |
| CustomFields            |
| FM_ArticleCFValues      |
| FM_Articles             |
| FM_ClassCustomFields    |
| FM_Classes              |
| FM_CustomFieldValues    |
| FM_CustomFields         |
| FM_ObjectTopics         |
| FM_Topics               |
| FM_Transactions         |
| GroupMembers            |
| Groups                  |
| Links                   |
| ObjectCustomFieldValues |
| ObjectCustomFields      |
| Principals              |
| Queues                  |
| ScripActions            |
| ScripConditions         |
| Scrips                  |
| Templates               |
| Tickets                 |
| Transactions            |
| Users                   |
| sessions                |
+-------------------------+

which is two more FM_-tables than before the migration, so I guess it 
has worked.

I also tried:
RTFM-2.2.1
RTFM-2.0.1
installing request-tracker 3.6.7 from source instead of the debian package

All with the same result: No "Content" for articles and no "Content" 
input fields for new articles.

Any ideas?

Can I fix this, manually if necessary?

Thanks & best regards,

David Gubler

Hi Simon

Thanks for your response, it got me on the right path:

We have an RTFM class "FAQ" which has two custom fields. For some reason 
these got disabled during the migration, all I had to do is to 
reactivate them using the RT GUI and the root account.

Thanks again and best regards,

I have exactly the same problem (which don't help you). I also
tried the stalled method, but in "production" it's not a good
solution. I thought about a search like "give me all tickets where last
transaction is not from owner or system" but I failed to put this in
TicketSql, maybe somebody on the listy has an idea.

or maybe configure a customfield (lastUpdateBy: owner,other), and then 
write a scrip which alter the customfield on every correspond, depending
if the sender is equal the owner or not.
Afterward you can define a simple search where lastUpdatedBy="other"
I think I will try this the next days

That part of it looks OK to me.

 

I recently had a problem with a similarly-structured scrip that didn't
seem to be firing.  It turned out to be because I'd left the "Custom
Action Preparation Code" field blank.  When I put a "return 1;" into
that field, it started behaving as expected.

Thanks Mark

 

I tried that but it doesn't seem to work. Here's the code I put in the
scrip;

 

my $tickets = new RT::Tickets(RT->SystemUser)

my $id = $self->TicketObj->id;

my $queue = $self->TicketObj->QueueObj->Name;

 

return 1 unless (defined($id)); # Can this be undefined?

 

 $tickets->FromSQL('Type = "reminder" AND RefersTo="'.$id.'"');

 while (my $ticket = $tickets->Next) {

 $RT::Logger->info("Closing associated reminder");

 $ticket->SetStatus("resolved"); 

}

 return 1; 

 

 

I have zero knowledge of  perl so I don't know if this is correct.

 

Regards

Looks to me like
http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/OnQueueChangeFixReminders
  should
get you most of the way there as a jumping-off point.  Obviously, you'd
change the scrip condition to "On Resolve" and you'd use a
$ticket->SetStatus('resolved') call in place of the
$Ticket->SetQueue($queue) in the while loop...

If I set a reminder for a ticket, after the ticket is resolved the
reminder is still active. Is there anyway to automate closing the
reminders on resolution of the ticket?

How do I define a condition where requestor address is 'user at example'
com? I will use this condition to close a ticket

In chapter 6.1.3 Conditions of RT Essentials by Oreilly I see
something like this

$self->TicketObj->status eq 'deleted';

and

my $email = $self->TicketObj->RequestorAddresses[0]

So can I have a user defined condition like this?

$self->TicketObj->RequestorAddresses eq 'user at example.com' ?

Is that a valid syntax ?

I tried to setup like this thru web but it does not resolve the
ticket. What am I doing wrong?

Description: AutoClose
Condition: User Defined
Action: User Defined
Template: Global template: Autoreply
Stage: TransactionCreate

Custom condition:
    $self->TicketObj->RequestorAddresses eq 'vadud3 at gmail.com';

Custom action preparation code:
    return 1;

Custom action cleanup code:
    $self->TicketObj->SetStatus resolved;

I see it create a ticket but it does not autoclose it

Message-ID: <441943649C17D84E8262B5B2E9A4CAE4542F1C@kbexch02.corp.breconridge.com>

Hello

 

I am trying to upgrade from 3.6.3 to 3.8 or 3.8.2. I initially tried
going to 380, using the a copy of the same database that 363 was using
in Oracle. I ran the database upgrade scripts fine, and was able to
connect to it fine and do just about everything. I say just about, as I
noticed that all the links and child/parent relationships are gone from
the tickets. I checked the messages file and noticed that I get this
entry for a bunch of tickets. The look like the entries in the links
table, so I am assuming they are related to my dilemma. Can anyone tell
me what has happened to my links. I'll include an entry from the links
table from my production system and one from my current 380 dev system
for comparison. 

 

Current PROD system (running 363) link table entry: (sorry for the
formatting...sqlplus output is too wide) - this still works, links show
in tickets.

I haven't seen too much documentation or threads on this in my seaches.
There was one from 2005 that went unanswered. This is the only issue
stopping from roling up to 382 right now. Any help would be appreciated.

Trying to bring this back since the list is a bit more active than the 
last time i asked...  :-)

Anyone have success importing bugzilla data into RT 3.8.x?  I have a 
script from the archives, but it's from a good three years ago and the 
original creator's company has been bought out by Sun.

Thanks

Jesse, how would you feel about having an action which indicates an  
update not by a privileged user?

Ie, "Correspond" and Comments would be from privileged.
"Update" or "Response" (or any other name you like) would be an update  
from an unprivileged user.

This kind of change would make it easy to build Scrip actions around  
handling responses better.  Would you be interested in this?

Since 3.8 added user level preferences, this really looks like  
something which is
better handled as a user preference.   RT::Config has docs about  
adding items
to %META and marking them as user overridable.  It would also want some
changes and docs for RT_Config.pm because you could set a global default
(default would be 0)

Subject: [rt-users] Asset shredder not working in 3.8.x
Message-ID: <49948326.2070000@library.wisc.edu>

I posted twice to the code.google.com site but thought this would be a 
better forum to see if anyone is having the same issues that I am.

Background: we have been using RT and AT for a couple of years now and 
the shredder for tickets and assets worked until the update to 3.8.x.  I 
am currently at version 3.8.2.  Here are my two posts to the google code 
site:

I am running into issues adding the asset shredder plugin when running 
RT 3.8.1 with
AT 1.2.3.  I get errors just going to the Shredder page once I add the 
plugin files:

Error during compilation of
/opt/rt3/share/html/Admin/Tools/Shredder/Elements/SelectPlugin: Can't 
locate object
method "Type" via package "RT::Shredder::Plugin::Assets" at
/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Shredder/Plugin.pm line 141. Stack:

[/opt/rt3/share/html/Admin/autohandler:49] 
[/opt/rt3/share/html/autohandler:308]
AND

We just updated to RT 3.8.2 and tried this again.  I think I now know 
more relevant
information.  We do not use the normal built in Asset types.  We have 
modified them
to be specific to our Dell computers and have actually removed the built 
in types. Could this be our issue?  Could someone point me in the right 
direction to fix this?
I am a sys admin and have some coding knowledge (but definitely not a 
perl expert).
Thanks so much for any information!

Pete


Thanks for any help or direction,

Pete

Are you saying that you guys will implement it that way for a later  
version? Or is this a request for a patch to implement these things?

Peter,

I'm guessing the design of shredder has changed between it's days as an RT
3.4 extension and it's current status as a feature of RT 3.8. The asset
shredder hasn't been upgraded to handle any changes. Patches are welcome.

That was a suggestion of how to make the patch better and more  
compatible with 3.8

I wouldn't apply any patch that adds two new Config variables without  
documenting
them and adding defaults to the shipped config file.

Subject: [rt-users] displaying query builder screen taking forever
In-Reply-To: <00c901c97107$1b4f9580$51eec080$@com>
Message-ID: 



We've been on RT 3.8.0 now since Nov. 2008. In the last couple of weeks,
whenever you try and go to the query builder screen, it causes mysqld to
take 100% of the cpu for several minutes before displaying the query
builder screen.

Any idea what could cause that all of a sudden? Some suspect entries in the
http logs when this happens include:

[11/Feb/2009:10:04:15 -0600] 162.94.28.110 SSLv3 RC4-MD5
"GET /RTFM/Article/Search.html?HideOptions=1&Summary%7E=blocking+lock
HTTP/1.1" 6210
[11/Feb/2009:12:22:54 -0600] 162.94.28.110 TLSv1 DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA
"GET /RTFM/Article/Search.html?HideOptions=1&Summary%7E=blocking HTTP/1.1"
6205

Why would just trying to display this screen cause anything of significance
to run against the database? We are on MySQL version 5.0.45.

Free software: It looks like the free software I had in mind will
work. It's less sophisticated though,
and we may eventually run up against some limitations. Few people are
likely to be initially familiar
with it either, but that may or may not be a problem.

ESRI pay: $1,500 per licenses, although it might be a good idea to get
a slightly more advanced
(and expensive version) for at least one if two seats are purchased.

ESRI grant: $100 (or $200, it's a little vague) for the more advanced product.

they'll accept state non-profit

Long time lurker, first time poster.

Does anyone know if there's a way to make the standard "Worked" field on
a ticket update a Mandatory field?  People are forgetting to enter their
time worked on certain projects, and it's making our project billing
process inaccurate.  I know this can be done with Custom Fields, but I
don't see anywhere in the Configuration section to make this field
mandatory for a particular queue.

Or is this only possible using Custom Templates and Custom Fields?

Thanks!

Matt

I would look at modifying the table to make that column NOT NULL.
The question, then, is how elegantly RT will handle failed updates,
and whether you need to customize the interface to accommodate this.

Subject: [rt-users] RT 3.8.1nb1 on NetBSD 4.0 problem with Out of memory!
 and FastCGI: incomplete headers (0 bytes) received from server
Message-ID: <49953491.9040105@agriplus.pl>

Hi there list!

This is my first post, and I'm newbie with RT so excuse any trivial 
question. I have searched many sites and threads but cannot find 
solution for my problem so I'm writing it here.

First of all - configuration:

OS: NetBSD 4.0
CPUs: 2x "Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.00GHz"
RAM: 2 GB

Soft:

ap2-fastcgi-2.4.6   New, improved CGI-like interface module for Apache

p5-FCGI-0.67nb3     Perl5 library for FastCGI, a fast startup 
alternative to CGI

rt-3.8.1nb1  - Industrial-grade ticketing system

fcgi-2.4.0nb1       FastCGI application development kit

apache-2.0.63nb4    Apache HTTP (Web) server, version 2

mysql-server-5.0.67nb1 MySQL 5, a free SQL database (server)

Lots of perl modules which I belive are completly list of what RT need, 
becouse installed RT from pkgsrc.

Now, after compiling and setup VirtualHost on Apache:

# Tell FastCGI to put its temporary files somewhere sane.
FastCgiIpcDir /tmp

FastCgiServer /usr/pkg/bin/mason_handler.fcgi -idle-timeout 360 
-processes 10


    ServerName 10.1.0.5

    # Pass through requests to display images
    Alias /NoAuth/images/ /usr/pkg/share/rt3/html/NoAuth/images/

    AddHandler fastcgi-script .fcgi
    ScriptAlias / /usr/pkg/bin/mason_handler.fcgi/


I have propper login screen, I can login, but randomly when I click 
something get error 500 from apache. The logs show something like this:


*** /var/log/httpd//error_log ***
Out of memory!

This error remains, as long as I restart Firefox or any other browser. 
Then after going to http://10.1.0.5 got normal login page. And logs shows:

So far, so good. But once again, when i chose some options on random 
time got this error from begin of the post. 100% to recreate error is 
when i chose "Take" for the ticket.

Yes, I know, there maybe some misconfiguration about sending mail, but 
should RT just inform me about this instead of error 500? Anyway, 
sometimes when I click for example Configuration (which is not sending 
mail) got the same Out Of Memory! and incomplete headers error.

What may be interesting also, but don't know if this is corressponding, 
after restarting browser I have that ticket assigned to me. Then when I 
editing it (seneding comments, closing etc.) it immediatelly log me off. 
After login, changes I made are comitted (for example closing ticket).

Clearing Mason cache also don't help:
rm -Rf /var/spool/rt3/mason_data/obj


Thank anybody for time to help me :)

Subject: [rt-users] Approvals in 3.8.2
Message-ID: <3CE7D8D453B27148BBCA0B2063B11E64D5F9F0@s-wor-e-001.SCOUTSOFFICE.local>

I had the approval system working in 3.8.1, but for some reason it no
longer works in 3.8.2 as expected.

 

If a new ticket is created in our approval queue "Management Approvals"
it sends out a normal ticket email, not the approval email.

 

In the "Management Approvals" queue there is a scrip:

When an approval ticket is created, notify the Owner and AdminCc of the
item awaiting their approval
              $self->TicketObj->Type eq 'approval'   and

              $self->TransactionObj->Field eq 'Status'         and

              $self->TransactionObj->NewValue eq 'open'   and

              eval { $T::Approving = ($self->TicketObj->AllDependedOnBy(
Type => 'ticket' ))[0] }

 

I had a look at the ___Approvals queue to see if it had changed, to find
no Scrips at all. There were some updated templates, which I copied over
to "Management Approvals".

 

I know a small change was listed in the change log for 3.8.2; has this
impacted my system?

 

Anyone have a clue why the approvals don't work as expected? I don't
think they are being marked as an Approval either, as they just show up
as a normal ticket and not in the Approvals page.

I was a bit confused by the revamped approvals in 3.8.2 as well --
especially the lack of scrips for the ___Approvals queue.  It seems
these actions are now hardcoded into the system -- at least for the
default actions (I'm sure somebody can elaborate more and far better
than me on this)

Here's how I got mine to work:

- Enable the ___Approvals queue
- In your templates for your approval queues, ensure that you have
"Queue: ___Approvals" specified. 
- Once the approval ticket got created in ___Approvals, everything
started falling into place.

Most of the examples I had seen show using a custom queue here, but that
didn't seem to be necessary with 3.8.2.

You probably understand this stuff already, but for benefit of other
confused semi-newbs like myself:

I suppose my biggest stumbling block to figuring this out was my lack of
understanding of same of the basic concepts of the Approvals system in
general. The biggest one being that for every approval, there's actually
TWO tickets:  The first being the normal ticket itself you want
approved. This is the one that gets created or moved into your
"Management Approvals" queue.  The second is a semi-hidden specialized
ticket that gets put in the __Approvals queue (or possibly a queue you
created prior to 3.8.2).  This is the ticket you see when clicking on
the Approvals link and has the Approve, Deny, Notes, etc. fields.

Like most things, this seems obvious once you know it, but piecing it
together in the beginning can be a little tricky and frustrating. :-)   

Good luck!

Thanks for the info.

The way I had hoped to use it was having a "Approval" button on the ticket screen, and when pressed it would send all the info to the create new ticket/depends on screen with "Management Approvals" This bit works. I thought I would need separate approval queues for different groups of people.

So if I add Queue: ___Approvals to every template in the Management approvals queue, it should work correctly? They are just copies of the ones from the ___Approvals queue.

So should I remove the scrips from the Management Approvals queue?

Thanks,
Alex

We already have something for you, I think.

RT::Transaction->IsInbounda

=head2 IsInbound

Returns true if the creator of the transaction is a requestor of the
ticket.
Returns false otherwise

=cut

My knowledge of the approvals system is admittedly limited, but it
sounds feasible.  Hopefully somebody more knowledgable can comment . . .

To clarify how my system is setup and works (under 3.8.2):

-  I have a queue for every individual who can approve a ticket.
-  Each one of those queues has exactly one template named "Create
Approval".  This template looks almost identical to the examples seen in
the wiki and the RT Essentials book, except the Queue: is always
_Approvals
- Each queue has exactly two scrips:  one that responds to the "On
Create" and the other that responds to the "On Queue Change" events.
(both using the Create Approval template)
- I have no other scrips or templates in the queues
- Other than some cosmetic changes, the templates and scrips in the
___Approvals are pretty much left untouched.
- When a ticket needs to be approved, it can either be created directly
in the approving users' queue, or an existing ticket can be moved there
from the Basics screen.

I'm sure some more complex mods can be setup, such as the one you're
making, but this seems to work pretty well for generic approvals.

Again, hopefully somebody more knowledgable than me can comment on this.

Good luck!

Subject: [rt-users] Approvals status open->resolved
Message-ID: <200902131603.51640.Richard.Foley@rfi.net>

Hi all,

I'm using RT 3.8.2 to set up approvals, and I'd like the approval process to 
set the ticket status to "resolved", instead of "open".  I'm setting the 
status to "pending" inbetween times, and I'd like to get to "resolved" 
without RT ignoring me :-)  To which end I have fudged the code temporarily 
like this:

# /opt/rt3/lib/RT/Approval/Rule/Passed.pm:line 80:

        # $obj->SetStatus( Status => 'open', Force => 1 );
        $obj->SetStatus( Status => 'resolved', Force => 1 );

Only the ticket is still set to "open"!

The target ticket is happily marked as "rejected" or "open", but I'm unable to 
get it to choose "resolved"...  I've also tried this with local/ with no more 
luck - anyone have a better idea, please?

Yes, the logic for the approval workflow have been migrated to use the RT Rules
system, which avoids maintaining non-trivial code in database column as in
scrips.  If you are using the original approval scrips, everything should be
backward-compatible.

Consider the Queue here being a specific workflow that requires approval, for
example a Purchase Order queue.  the ___Approvals queues and the tickets in it
(which records the states of the approvals) should in fact be hidden.  And you
might have different sets of approval rules for different queues, for example, a
PO queue and a Vacation Request queue.

We are in the process of releasing a RT extension called WorkflowBuilder, which
should make the use of the approval system of fewer hassles.  Most notably you
can define multi-stage approvals without writing the template for the
CreateTickets action, and without modifying the scrips yourself.

Cheers,
CLK

Subject: [rt-users] Issue with CCs getting emails onComment and Replies.
Message-ID: <20090213081337.6qv70ov2wwsog4wc@www.vrshell.com>

Version of RT 3.6--
I am having an issue with users reporting that sometimes (appears  
randomly) the CCs (individual emails added at the time of  
reply/comment) are not getting the emails. The people that are not  
getting the emails are either users with access to RT or just random  
email addresses. I have confirmed that the users that have access to  
RT do get CCs when they are included on the Reply or Comment. I am  
however not able to confirm the random email address requests that  
appear to also have the issue. If I try to reply to the ticket (not  
the owner) it appears to work.

Suggestions?

I checked the Scrips for onComment and onCorrespondence. Both state  
that it will notify the CCs.

I also checked the templates, they are the standard ones that came  
with the RT 3.6 release.

Recommendations other troubleshooting approaches to the issue?

Thanks in Advance,

-Mark Grob

Do you mean the status of the ticket pending approval?  the code you changed is
for setting the status for the approvals of next level to "open".  If you want
to change the status of the "top" ticket, you want to do that in the "if
($passed)" section, and do SetStatus on $top.

Subject: [rt-users] Retroactive scrip-ing
Message-ID: <8fae230c0902130814k34dd1e34t8bfe8de2fa27bc1b@mail.gmail.com>

I have queues, CFs, scrips and such set up more or less the way i want
them.  For now.  Until the department heads get back to me again.

While configging things, i collected about 10k tickets into the
General queue in various stages of completeness.  Other queues weren't
set up yet, CFs weren't being captured, etc. etc., so they remain in
General with empty CFs.

What would be the least-painful way of running all 10k of them thru
the system as if they were being created, i.e. having all scrips apply
to them now that we would have wanted when they came it?

Thanks,
Rob

I think I'd write a perl script to read each ticket and then e-mail it back 
to RT.  Not very elegant and a significant bump in your mail server's 
workload, but you know that they would all be treated as new tickets.  This 
should be a pretty trivial script to write using the API.

Thanks Chia-liang!  

The WorkflowBuilder sounds like just the thing I've been needing to work
on some flows I've been tasked with automating.  I had even considered
building a crude tool for my own use.

Message-ID: <8e313b7a0902130843t73faf585le5066d5216f4e899@mail.gmail.com>

Greetings Everyone!

My second question of the day (and hopefully my final).

*Basics:*
I'm running RT 3.8.1 on Linux Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy, Apache 2.2.8, Perl 5.8.8,
and MySQL 5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.1. We want to be able to track the total time
spent on a ticket *and* the time spent that we should bill to a client. As
such, we developed our own internal process where we put the total time
spent on a ticket in the Time Worked column and the time we plan to bill the
client for (which is usually less than the total time) in the Time Estimated
column.

*The Problem:
*Is it possible to change the Time Estimated data label to read *Billable
Time* in the interface? That would greatly help reduce confusion.

Thanks in advance!
-Chris

Greetings everyone!

I have two questions for this post.

*Basics:*
I'm running RT 3.8.1 on Linux Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy, Apache 2.2.8, Perl 5.8.8,
and MySQL 5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.1. We have added a custom status of "Staged" to
indicate when a ticket is open, but pending some action by other departments
(ie, it is staged and waiting on approval to be moved into production). I
followed the instructions found in this forum for adding that custom status
and it works great.

*The Problems:*

   1. We want to add a column to the Quick Search on the RT at a Glance
   screen for Staged. So, across the top of Quick Search you would see *Queue
   New Open **Stalled Staged*. I have hunted and hunted and can't figure out
   how to do that. Is it possible?
   2. Once you click on a queue, we want to ensure that tickets with a
   status of *staged* show up in the list.

Thanks in advance for your time and assistance!

Hi Chia-liang,

Ok, so now I've got this:

    if ($passed) {
        $top->SetStatus( Status => 'resolved', Force => 1 );
        $self->RunScripAction('Notify Owner', 'Approval Ready for Owner',
                              TicketObj => $top);
    }

and nothing happens...

	?-\

What I have is:

1. The original ticket status changed from "new" to "pending" via a Scrip.

2. The generated approval ticket has an automatic status of "open".

3. When I "Approve" the approval ticket, (which sets itself to "resolved"),

4. I want the original ticket to get a status of "resolved" also, but it does 
nothing currently.

Customize a local copy of your language's po file? e.g;

 mkdir -p /opt/rt3/local/lib/RT/I18N/
 cp /opt/rt3/lib/RT/I18N/en.po /opt/rt3/local/lib/RT/I18N/en.po
 emacs /opt/rt3/local/lib/RT/I18N/en.po

You have to be root to edit the global queries for widgets on the front page,
but Quicksearch appears to be special, and apparently requires tweaking
a local copy of share/html/Elements/Quicksearch; it's a simple file though.

Add Staged to @ActiveStatus in RT_SiteConfig.pm
(copying from RT_Config.pm as necessary)

Sorry - I'm a total n00b here. Can you explain what that's doing exactly? I
can't quite follow what's happening. Looks like, you make a new dir, copy
some specific library file (language po file?) and then "emacs" the lib file
(don't know what that does).

Then, would you go edit the copied file and look for Time Estimated?

Thanks in advance, sorry for the newbie questions...

Mail server's not working very hard right now, so that shouldn't be a problem.

If i follow this right, this will create a new set of tickets with
what i want, but the originals will still remain as-is, yes?  I
suppose i could destroy the originals after i verify it worked.

Thanks, i'll take a poke at this.

It's a text editor. Use whatever you want to make the changes.
Emacs happens to have some understanding of po files,
that should prevent you from bungling things.

Subject: [rt-users] Create standard request forms with RT
Message-ID: 

Hello all,

 I use RT 3.8.2. People are creating tickets to request things, and
sometimes they forget some details. I would like to create a set of
"standard request forms", ideally somewhere in RT, that will create
tickets with a summary of the details.

Exemple : request for an DNS entry will create a ticket in the DNS
queue, with me as an owner and with this content :

FQDN: something.bestpractical.com
IP: 10.1.1.1
TTL (optionnal): 3600
Description: new website for something


For example. This is filled in by the user in a form, the ticket can
be created with the rt command line, command by email, or anything
else.

I have more complex requests, for example a request for a new server,
that will create a ticket "new server", with childs such as "install
physically the server", "request an IP", "configure the DNS" etc...
And I'll consider the server "installed" when all the child will be
resolved.

My problem is which tool can I use to create these forms ? Is there
something for this in RT or should I use something else ?

Sweet. I was able to figure out that page no problem and after a quick
restart of Apache2, staged now shows in the quick search.

Interestingly, I had already added the line:
Set(@ActiveStatus, qw(new open stalled staged));
to RT_SiteConfig.pm and it still isn't showing up in those queries...

Any other thoughts on solving the second issue?

Better to merge I should think, if you're going this route.
Especially since you're also going to be sending out lots of
requestor notifications, which could be potentially confusing
e.g; "It's already done, why are you bugging me again?" or
replying to an old message with the old ticket ID.

In the latest RT rt-crontool can be used for this. It has transaction
and transaction-type arguments that can be very helpful, for example
you can apply an action on all corresponds in tickets matching some
search query and/or condition.

However, you must understand that if your action changes a ticket then
dates will be updated what can be undesired. I think linear escalation
action in RT can give you hints on silencing updates.

Hrm. I added:

msgid "Time Estimated"
msgstr "Billable Time"

to the bottom of /opt/rt3/local/lib/RT/I18N/en.po and restarted apache2. No
luck. Was I supposed to update the other file? Did I do something wrong?

Thanks so much for your help...

We use web pages to do this.  User goes to DNS request page, fills in form, 
php does some sanity-checking on the data, data gets formatted and mailed 
to RT, RT creates ticket in DNS queue.  Repeat for e-mail aliases, firewall 
rules, etc.

You don't need to restart, HUP/graceful/reload is good enough.

Hmm, it seems RT doesn't support local localizations, without creating
a RT/I18N_Local.pm file. I *think* you might be able to get away with just:

  cp /opt/rt3/local/lib/RT/I18N.pm /opt/rt3/local/lib/RT/I18N_Local.pm

It seems like overkill, but I18N.pm uses the  __FILE__ token to locate po files.

Disable all scrips that send correspondence, go one step further and 
shut down your MTA (so that mail sent in will try again later), use the 
API to re-run those transactions, re-enable scrips, start the MTA back 
up.  No emailings, no fuss.

That's not the best way to go about this. Either use a customized self-service
interface, enable support for actions by email (so you can set custom fields),
or use the REST interface. The second option will take the least work with your
system, but there are security considerations to consider. See the wiki.

Hi Everyone


I just did a test migration from our existing 3.6.1 install to a 3.8.2 install following the process outlined here http://rt.bestpractical.com/view/MigrateToNewServer and in the UPGRADE.mysql and README files from the 3.8.2 package.

After installing 3.8.2 on the new server I tested it as is created a couple tickets and whatnot and everything seemed to be working well

I dropped the database and moved over my MySQL dump from the old server and ran through the migration and upgrade process from the sources I listed above.

What I'm seeing now is that most users can't view their tickets. They get a

The page you requested could not be found
Please check the URL and try again.

Error on the http://example.com/rt/Ticket/Display.html?id=123456 page

They can however see all the tickets listed. Root appears to be able to see all the tickets so I suspect it may be a permissions issue but I don't really know where to start. Were any permissions added that are needed to view a ticket between 3.6.1 and 3.8.2?

Thanks for your help all

It REALLY didn't like that. I wasn't able to start apache with that file. I
had to delete the file to get it to start again. (BTW, HUP isn't a known
thing on my ubuntu box...)

Any information from error logs to report? Did you not copy I18N/i_default.pm
to local too?

I did, and works fine for me.

Subject: [rt-users] Sending multipart messages from templates
Message-ID: 

Hi, folks.

I'm interested in making our correspondence from RT a little  
prettier-- that is, including some HTML.  I've created a template that  
uses HTML successfully and the message appears to be working just fine.

The problem I'm running into is that some folks in our office don't  
use email clients that display HTML.  I'd like to send a multipart  
message, but I can't seem to get the configuration right-- if it's at  
all possible.  Has anyone figured this out?  I've combed through the  
archives, but I haven't found anything dealing with this particular  
issue.

The template I'm working with has the following information at the  
beginning:

Subject: Ticket [{$rtname} #{$Ticket->id}] has been stolen
Content-Type: text/html

RT 3.8.2 generates a multipart alternative email when you use
an html template.  From Template_Overlay.pm's _DowngradeFromHTML

   $orig_entity->make_multipart('alternative', Force => 1);
  #make a plain text version of the original html templage in  
$new_entity
   $orig_entity->add_part($new_entity, 0); # plain comes before html

This played well with mutt and Mail.app

I don't use custom fields because :
 - I don't want users to log in the self service to create requests
 - I don't want to create custom fields per queue (especially
mandatory ones) because the DNS queue can be used to request a new DNS
entry, but also to report DNS problems or ask anything related to DNS.

We can use web pages, but it's more or less creating a kind of portal.
Do you have a technology/framework recommendation to do this ?

Thanks!

Your reasons for "not using CFs" do not preclude them. As before,
REST or commands by email. Simply make them optional in RT (not ideal),
and use your front-end to require values as necessary.

Letting the user change the value of the refresh for themselves is not a bad
thing but neither is having a non-zero default for the entire installation.
I very much would have liked to be able to set a non-zero default for the
page refresh for the installation, the options I have seen and tried cause
breakage of the system and require each user to change the preference each
time they login to the system.  I do agree that undocumented additions and
variables are bad but it would be very nice if both options were available.

My point was that the installation default should continue to be 0 in  
order to be
backwards compatible.

If such a patch were to be produced, I would be happy to consider it  
for inclusion
in a future 3.8 release.

If you speak perl, I'll be happy to send you a copy of a script we use that 
would illustrate getting ticket info using the API.  If you don't speak 
perl, then I wouldn't recommend learning it with this script or this project.

I speak it well enough to modify things, so far.  I wouldn't call
myself fluent, but i can more than copy-paste code.  I'd love to see
it.  This system isn't in production yet, so i don't mind potential
breakage trying to get something to work.  Thanks!

the change seems to work for me.  Here's the change to the test in

By "a requestor" I take it to mean "anyone other than a watcher or  
owner" ?

How is (or where can I review) the logic for this?

FYI, I assume you mean RT::Transaction->IsInbound or is there  
RT::Transaction->IsInboundb too?

I can do that, but it doesn't solve my original problem : which frontend ?

Message-ID: <49971A46.8040306@nature.berkeley.edu>

Hi,

Just upgraded from 3.6.6 to 3.8.2 running on Solaris 10. Now I find 
myself struggling to the the syslog stuff to work.

Here are the settings that I had thought would work from my 
understanding of the docs
and googling:

Set(@LogToSyslogConf = ( socket => 'stream'));

[Sat Feb 14 11:18:58 2009] [error] [client 169.229.201.201] undef is not 
a valid Log::Dispatch log level at /opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT.pm line 341\n

Does anyone have rt 3.8.2 working on Solaris 10?  Care to share your 
LogToSyslogConf settings?

What have you set $LogToSyslog to (that seems to be the source of the
undef error you're seeing)

In addition, I know that on Solaris 8 and 9 I needed ( socket =>  
'inet' )
to avoid problems (which is what is documented in RT_Config.pm),
but I haven't had a chance to play with Solaris 10 yet.

Thanks Mark,
 
Tried that but it still doesn't work. Will try it next week when we
upgrade to 3.8.2.

	That part of it looks OK to me.

	 

	I recently had a problem with a similarly-structured scrip that
didn't seem to be firing.  It turned out to be because I'd left the
"Custom Action Preparation Code" field blank.  When I put a "return 1;"
into that field, it started behaving as expected.

	Thanks Mark

	 

	I tried that but it doesn't seem to work. Here's the code I put
in the scrip;

	 

	my $tickets = new RT::Tickets(RT->SystemUser)

	my $id = $self->TicketObj->id;

	my $queue = $self->TicketObj->QueueObj->Name;

	 

	return 1 unless (defined($id)); # Can this be undefined?

	 

	 $tickets->FromSQL('Type = "reminder" AND RefersTo="'.$id.'"');

	 while (my $ticket = $tickets->Next) {

	 $RT::Logger->info("Closing associated reminder");

	 $ticket->SetStatus("resolved"); 

	}

	 return 1; 

	 

	 

	I have zero knowledge of  perl so I don't know if this is
correct.

	 

	Regards

	Looks to me like
http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/OnQueueChangeFixReminders
  should
get you most of the way there as a jumping-off point.  Obviously, you'd
change the scrip condition to "On Resolve" and you'd use a
$ticket->SetStatus('resolved') call in place of the
$Ticket->SetQueue($queue) in the while loop...

	If I set a reminder for a ticket, after the ticket is resolved
the reminder is still active. Is there anyway to automate closing the
reminders on resolution of the ticket?

In preparation for updating our RT installation to 3.8.x, I've re-done 
my quick SPAM handling modification.  I can (and will) distribute the 
necessary files, but it would be really nice if I could package it up a 
little more nicely.  One of the things I need to do is replace two 
queries:  "Search - My Tickets" and "Search - Unowned Tickets".  I've 
created and initaldata.SPAM file which can trivially be used to insert 
the new queries, but there doesn't seem to be a way to convince 
rt-setup-database to drop the existing queries first.

So, what's the best way to handle this.  Is there a recommended way to 
add random SQL to an initialdata file?  Should I just draw up a not to 
tell the owner to delete those rows?  Inquiring minds want to know!

FWIW, there is a wiki page at:
http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/QuickSpamHandler

Just tried it again with
Set($LogToSyslog    , 'debug');
Set(@LogToSyslogConf = ( socket => 'inet'));

and still get
[Sun Feb 15 13:20:53 2009] [error] [client 169.229.201.201] undef is not 
a valid Log::Dispatch log level at /opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT.pm line 341\n

After making a change to RT_SiteConfig.pm, is it necessary to restart 
apache or anything?

Yes, any time you make a change to RT_SiteConfig.pm, it's necessary to
restart apache and clear out the mason cache.  Reference the readme docs.

Actually, for changes to lib and etc, you need only stop and start
apache. The mason cache is only for templates.

Subject: [rt-users] Reply to a ticket for a support user
Message-ID: 

Hi all,
Total freshmen to RT and setting up my first instance that should run two queues. Currently I have configured two users as support persons. RT sends the new ticket mail and also the case closed mail without any problems but;

-          As one of the support persons I cannot send a reply mail to the requestor. It just becomes a comment in the ticket.

-          As root this works just fine.

I have added both of my users to the Global Super User feature and now I am running out of ways to configure all the permissions on queue, group, user, privileged and non privilege uses, etc

What am I missing. I want the support person to communicate with reply to the requestor.
Cheers!

Hi,

somebody here merged a ticket with another one, but shouldn't have. Is it
possible to split the tickets again?

Thanks

It's a bit difficult but possible in the DB. See the FAQ entry on this

I have now solved this issue by rewriting the aliases through an LDAP
lookup on the MTA on the RT server. In this case, Postfix.

main.cf:
  local_header_rewrite_clients = hash:/etc/postfix/smtpservers
  sender_canonical_maps = ldap:/etc/postfix/canonical-ldap.cf

canonical-ldap.cf:
  server_host = ldap.example.com
  version = 3
  search_base = o=example.com
  query_filter = mailalternateaddress=%s
  result_attribute = mail
  domains = example.com

Thanks for all the help! I feel like you've really gone above and beyond
helping me sort this out!

Unfortunately, it's still not working (and I'm 95% sure it's all me).

Here's what I've done:

Created a file called *rt3/lib/RT/I18N/en_qaa.po*. That file contains the
following:
#: added 2/16/2009 by CN to modify a data label. According to
#: instructions at http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/CustomizeLabel

msgid "Time Estimated"
msgstr "Billable Time"

I then tried SIGHUP and HUP at the command line and just got *-bash: HUP:
command not found* (which I think is just a function of me misunderstanding
what you're telling me to do to gracefully restart the server). So, I went
with the old standby of *sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart* and then removed
all the cookies in my browser associated with the Web site. When I started a
new session, logged back into the Web site, I still see *Time
Estimated*when I go to edit a ticket.

Thanks so much for sticking with me on this problem!
-Chris

Ok. I added the lines:
msgid "Time Estimated"
msgstr "Billable Time"

to the bottom of *rt3/lib/RT/I18N/en.po*, restarted apache, and it worked
like a champ! Is there a way to get RT to use the en_qaa.po file so that
upgrades won't destroy those changes?

Thanks so very much for the help!

OK. I was able to solve the last problem here as well!

I went to *rt3/share/html/Elements/QueueSummary* and added *OR Status =
'staged'* to the following line:
%   my $all_q = $queue_cond . "(Status = 'open' OR Status = 'new' OR Status
= 'stalled' OR Status = 'staged')";

I imagine this isn't the best way to do this as it will be overwritten if we
do any upgrades. Is there a config file I can put this in?

Thanks so very much for all the help!

%   my $all_q = $queue_cond . "(Status = 'open' OR Status = 'new' OR Status
= 'stalled' OR Status = 'stalled')";

Yes, you have to set your language to that dialect in user preferences.
You should also be able to set the system default language to that dialect.

I'd posted a patch for this that was accepted (not sure if it is 3.8.2,
but could be) so all you should have to change us QuickSearch -- the
line above becomes:

my $all_q = $queue_cond . "(" . join(" OR ", map { $_->{cond} }
@$conditions) . ")";

Then, all you need to do is add to the conditions list in QuickSearch.

Regards,
Mark

Subject: [rt-users] ruby -> REST
Message-ID: <4999DD3E.9070401@bitstatement.net>

I am working on some code in ruby that accesses the REST interface.  I am
running RT 3.8.2.  I am able to login, save cookies, and retrieve tickets
and history without problems.

My problem starts when I try to use REST to add a comment/correspondence to
a ticket.  The following code:

----------------------------------------------------
url = "#{REST}ticket/846/comment"
req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(url)
req.add_field 'User-Agent',UA
req.add_field 'Cookie',cookie
req.set_form_data( { "Action" => "comment",
                     "Text" => "This is some text" } )

response,data = http.request(req)

puts response.code + " "  + response.message
puts "Data: "
puts data
----------------------------------------------------

produces this output:

====================================================
200 OK
Data:
no value sent for required parameter 'changes'
Stack:
  [/opt/rt38/share/html/REST/1.0/dhandler:285]
  [/opt/rt38/share/html/REST/1.0/autohandler:54]
  [/opt/rt38/share/html/autohandler:311]
====================================================

I've looked at /opt/rt38/share/html/REST/1.0/dhandler line 285 and there is
a method call $m->comp with no mention of a parameter named 'changes', which
is quite possibly the problem. Later in the file there is another $m->comp
call that has a 'changes' parameter.

I suspect this is a bug in share/html/REST/1.0/dhandler.  But what I don't
understand is why the RT command line tool can do it and I can't.  Anyone
else run into this?

I've re-written the whole thing using the rest_client ruby gem, and
essentially the same results, but I get more info out of what's going on:

# ./resttest2.rb

Is it permissible to POST to the REST interface using content type
application/x-www-form-urlencoded?  It would seem that the RT CLI does
something else but its difficult for me to figure out what.

Should I be asking about this on rt-devel instead?

Here's the scenario:

1)       A User has a custom field called Billable with two choices, yes, and no.
2)       User creates ticket
3)       Scrip checks Billable and sets ticket billable if user is billable


I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out how I can access the custom field belonging to the user however, anyone have thoughts on this?

I seem to have figured this out.  You can use
application/x-www-form-urlencoded, but you have to create a single form
field named "content", and it must contain the entire form in RFC822 format.

I didn't really see that documented anywhere I was looking, so perhaps the
documentation is somewhat lacking.

For example, where I had this:

req.set_form_data( { "Action" => "comment",
                     "Text" => "This is some text" } )

I changed to this:

req.set_form_data( { "content" => "Action: comment\nText: This is some text" })

and it works as desired.

For the "Text" parameter in the content, if you want to add a multi-line
comment it seems you have to have white-space at the beginning of
continuation lines, otherwise the RT "form parser" in the REST interface
thinks its a syntax error; any line with a character in the first column is
expected to be a field name within the form.

It also seems bizarre to me to implement the interface that way.  Basically
its like making a web page with a single text area named "content" and then
requiring formatting within that one field.  Why not have the REST interface
have discrete fields?  Coding to it would be certainly be cleaner.  Maybe
for /REST/2.0/ ? :)

Hi all,

 

I would to remove all tickets, but I don't remove the whole database. Does
someone know which the best manner to do that?

 

I have a solution, but I don't know if it's the best:

 

mysql -p



use 

delete * from Transactions;

delete * from Tickets;

Something like this I think:

my $billable = $self->TransactionObj->Creator->FirstCustomFieldValue ( 'Billable' );

You can use RTx::Shredder for this (as a module from CPAN if RT < 3.8,
included in 3.8.x).

Hi
Did you apply the group-rights and the user-rights with ShowCustomField
and ModifyCustomField rights?
Might be worth a look.

Hello

I have created a custom field to appear in all tickets. I have enabled
it globally for all queues but it does not appear in any new ticket.
Where am I going wrong?

Something like this I think:

Subject: [rt-users] [Fwd: quick configuration question...]
Message-ID: <499AC5F8.1010705@framestore.com>

Hi there!

I have RT system (3.8.1) running on RHEL 5 64bit server, using apache
2.23. For authentication I use the plugin RT::Authen::ExternalAuth to
authenticate against Active Directory and it all works great...but...

We wanted to make it even more simply and to utilize Kerbreros.

Our Linux Servers and workstations are using a piece of software called
vintela, wchich brings some AD goodness to Linux world... The server on
which apache is running is using vintela (VAS) services, including
Kerberos (server is in the AD domain), and apache is configured to use
mod_auth_vas which utilizes Kerberos.

My question is:
What should I change in my RT_SiteConfig.pm to have RT using basin
apache authentication ?

I tried to configure our site to use apache authentication (because
apache is already configured for kerberos) like this:

Set($WebExternalAuth , 1);
Set($WebFallbackToInternalAuth , 1);
Set($WebExternalAuto , 1);

but this didn't work - when loggin in, it just shows an empty index page
  with no tickets - just nothing...


Is there anything else I need to do? Maybe something to add to virtual
host definition ?



my virtual host configuration for this RT instance is like this:


     ServerName rt.our-domain
     ServerAlias rt
     DocumentRoot /var/systems-rt/share/html

     ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/systems-rt-error.log
     CustomLog /var/log/httpd/systems-rt-access.log common

PerlOptions +Parent
PerlModule Apache2::RequestRec Apache2::compat
PerlModule Apache::DBI
PerlRequire /var/systems-rt/bin/webmux.pl
PerlSetVar MasonArgsMethod CGI

# Normally a request for a directory will be rewritten to index.html
# (or similar) by default if that file exists. For some reason this does
# not happen with the handler being set to perl-script. We thus have to
# do it ourselves using mod_rewrite.

RewriteEngine on

RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ /var/systems-rt/share/html/$1

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^(/var/systems-rt/share/html.*)/$ $1/index.html

# We need this to prevent requests for images being sent through to
# the RT::Mason handler.


SetHandler default-handler



SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler RT::Mason





would be great to get some clues/hints.

regards,
Marcin

try:

my $billable = $billable_obj->First;

(maybe ->First->Content).

When it was implemented in 2002(?) or so, REST best practices were much
less clear. And the initial design goal involved being able to implement
a commandline client as a shell script with wget and a text editor.
RFC822-encoded forms were a very straight forward way to get from A to
B.

If I were doing it today[1], I'd do it differently.

Thanks, that worked.

Go in the DB, change the effectiveid of the ticket back to its ID. It could
be easier, but not the end of the world.

Subject: [rt-users] Severe performance problems suddenly in RT 3.8.2
Message-ID: 

We migrated our RT server to RT 3.8.2 a week ago, and all went well  
until today, when suddenly we've been hit by a massive performance  
problem.  It seems that almost any query which touches the Attachments  
table takes an absolute age to complete.  For example, I've just  
logged into the MySQL database itself directly, and done:

select count(*) from Attachments;

and I've been waiting for a couple of minutes, with nothing coming back.

Is there anything I ought to be looking at?  The database server is  
MySQL 5.0.32

Subject: [rt-users] RT::Extension::SLA Question
Message-ID: 

I am try to use RT to replace our current help desk system but have been struggling with 2 points:

1.)    We have an SLA with our customers and need to be able to incorporate that into our ticket system.  I have installed and begun configuring the SLA extension but I am not really sure if it is set up correctly here is my config:
# Set Business Hours
    %RT::ServiceBusinessHours = (
        0 => { Name => 'Sunday',Start => 'undef', End => 'undef' },
        1 => { Name => 'Monday', Start => '07:30', End => '17:00' },
        2 => { Name => 'Tuesday', Start => '07:30', End => '17:00' },
        3 => { Name => 'Wednesday', Start => '07:30', End => '17:00' },
        4 => { Name => 'Thursday', Start => '07:30', End => '17:00' },
        5 => { Name => 'Friday', Start => '07:30', End => '17:00' },
        6 => { Name => 'Saturday', Start => 'undef', End => 'undef' },
        holidays => [qw(2009-02-16 2009-03-23 2009-03-24 2009-03-25 2009-03-26 2
009-03-27)],
);

# RT:Extension::SLA Config
    %RT::ServiceAgreements = (
        Default => 'Service Impaired',
        Levels => {
            'System Inoperable' => { Response => { BusinessMinutes => 60*2 } },
            'Service Impaired' => { Response => { BusinessMinutes => 60*9 } },
            'General Inquiry' => { Response=> { BusinessMinutes => 60*27 } },
        },
    );

When I create a ticket I now see a user defined field called SLA, however there is just one field called 'No Value' so I think I might have missed something.

2.)    Custom reports, I would need to be able to generate reports using the SLA data to tell us if we are meeting our SLA, etc.


TIA,
Steve

Anything in mysql's error logs?

What does EXPLAIN SELECT COUNT(id) FROM Attachments say?

MySQL versions > 4.1 and < 5.0.45 are known to have a crippling query

As far as I recall SLA extension supports multiple business hours, so
you have to define:
    %RT::ServiceBusinessHours = (
        'Default' => {
            ... your description description ...
        },
    );

Such config allow you to define multiple business hours sets.

Values of the SLA custom field is not synced automatically with values
in the config. It's your job to add values via web UI -> Configuration
-> Custom Fields -> SLA.

As well you should grant rights on this CFs if you want people to be
able to change level of service (escalate).

"institutional wisdom", sadly. But I'm assured "That issue isn't this
one"

Can you easily optimize your tables? Perhaps first, it's worth running
mysqltuner.pl (http://mysqltuner.pl) and posting the output.

    When making adjustments, make tmp_table_size/max_heap_table_size equal
    Reduce your SELECT DISTINCT queries without LIMIT clauses
Variables to adjust:
    tmp_table_size (> 64M)
    max_heap_table_size (> 16M)
    innodb_buffer_pool_size (>= 4G)

It's a 2GB machine so we can't up the innodb_buffer_pool_size (much)
more. I think the tmp_table_size/max_heap_table_size is the most recent
tweak we've tried.

For rt-3.8.x I believe that should now be expressed like so:

Set( %ServiceBusinessHours, (
        0 => { Name => 'Sunday',Start => 'undef', End => 'undef' },
        1 => { Name => 'Monday', Start => '07:30', End => '17:00' },
        2 => { Name => 'Tuesday', Start => '07:30', End => '17:00' },
        3 => { Name => 'Wednesday', Start => '07:30', End => '17:00' },
        4 => { Name => 'Thursday', Start => '07:30', End => '17:00' },
        5 => { Name => 'Friday', Start => '07:30', End => '17:00' },
        6 => { Name => 'Saturday', Start => 'undef', End => 'undef' },
        holidays => [qw(2009-02-16 2009-03-23 2009-03-24 2009-03-25 2009-03-26 2
009-03-27)],
    )
);

Similarly:

Set( %ServiceAgreements, (
        Default => 'Service Impaired',
        Levels => {
            'System Inoperable' => { Response => { BusinessMinutes => 60*2 } },
            'Service Impaired' => { Response => { BusinessMinutes => 60*9 } },
            'General Inquiry' => { Response=> { BusinessMinutes => 60*27 } },
        },
    )
);

You just need to configure the SLA custom field in the usual way -- as a
'Select one value' and then add your service levels as the list of available
options.  Now when you go to set the SLA on a ticket it should automatically
set the 'Starts' and 'Due' dates on the ticket.  You'll need to set up rt-crontool
to run at regular intervals -- given your 'System Inoperable' SLA is two hours,
you'll probably need to run it more frequently than hourly.  You may want to Google
for ways of supressing the rt-crontool transactions from ticket histories lest they
swamp all other  transactions.

There's one feature I'd love to have added to RT::Extension::SLA -- setting
initial and final ticket priorities automatically -- exactly as 'Starts' and 'Due'
dates are set.  One of these days I'll have enough spare time to have a go at
coding that up. 

> 2.) Custom reports, I would need to be able to generate reports using
> the SLA data to tell us if we are meeting our SLA, etc.

It's not particularly difficult to do a ticket search to find tickets resolved
after due date and with the SLA custom field set to some value.  You can produce
pie and bar charts from the search results, or you can export them as .tsv files
and you can use a spread sheet to produce whatever analyses you desire.

	Cheers,

	Matthew

That just looks...crazy. Can you try an OPTIMIZE TABLE Attachments; ?
(It may take ... a while.)

You would also need to check if the requesters list for each of your 
tickets is as they should be, when you merge tickets both set of 
requesters(and Ccs) get merged into the master ticket.

No, only the messages in the slow log, e.g:

# Query_time: 240  Lock_time: 0  Rows_sent: 4  Rows_examined: 27
SELECT DISTINCT main.Id AS id, main.Filename AS filename,

) JOIN Tickets Tickets_2 ON ( Tickets_2.id = Transactions_1.ObjectId )
WHERE (Tickets_2.EffectiveId = '97814') AND (Transactions_1.ObjectType =
'RT::Ticket')  ORDER BY main.id ASC;

and

select count(id) from Attachments;

Any pointers, please? I couldn't see anything in the RT wiki, sorry.

This is on Debian Etch so I expect we can upgrade to 5.0.51 from
backports quite easily if need be.

In 3.8 there is LinearEscalate action that can be used within crontool
to set priority according to Starts and Due dates. It even can be
configured via argument, for example it can be silent absolutely and
only update priority and don't touch transactions and LastUpdated
field.

To get regular reports you can use dashboards in RT 3.8 and get them
in email every morning or watch online.

Matthew,

I don't understand why you're suggesting crontool here, can you describe?

RT::Extension::SLA shipped with pretty good scrips that can be
disabled and re-enabled to turn off or turn back on some
functionality. For example it has scrip that sets default value of the
SLA according to the config. Starts/Due dates are set by another scrip
which doesn't care when and by whom SLA CF has be changed. Such setup
allows you to disable assigning of default service level for tickets
and set them manually for every ticket (some companies may like it).

I hope you see that mysql examined only 27 rows and spend 240 seconds
to do that. I suspect that it's related to very high IO activity that
were going parallel with this query and blocked mysql's IO requests.

Subject: [rt-users] CommandByEmail confusion
Message-ID: <499B0DE1.5090802@lbl.gov>

To all,


	I am VERY confused. I went to Bestpractical 
(http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/FALCONE/RT-Extensions) to download the 
CommandByEmail Extension. I am on 3.6.4 so I'm unsure that ".06" will 
work for me. I went to "insatlling Instruction" and it mentioned the 
install commands and also about the patch, which I don't believe I need. 
What seemed to be missing was how to download "CommandByEmail.05" 
directly into /opt/rt3/xxxx. just the patch. So, I then went to 
"overview" and saw the Download for .06, but that downloads directly 
onto my desktop. I thought I was supposed to download directly into 
/opt/rt/xxxxx and then run the make install and then change my RT Config 
file to get this to work and I can't even get the thing to download 
correctly to start with.
	I was hoping this would be a simple effort to find the software, 
download  it into my /opt/rt/ directory and run the installation 
commands. For a UNIX newbie, this just isn't the case.
	I need some help on how to get the "CommandByEmail" (version .05) to 
install into my Unix session in the directory /opt/rt/whatever so I can 
run the install commands and get this up and running.
	Please help. THanks.

	BASIC
Message-ID: <441943649C17D84E8262B5B2E9A4CAE4542F2A@kbexch02.corp.breconridge.com>

Hello,

 

I need help to get my RT 363 system back online. By mistake, I unchecked
the enabled button for the RT administration group, and have disabled
it. Now I am unable to perform any admin tasks. I went into the database
(Oracle) and checked the principals and cachegroupmembers table and
found the entries for that group and Reset the Disabled field to 0, but
after a restart it doesn't seem to have any effect on the system. I'm
not sure if it's related, but the reason I went poking around at that
group was about half of my admin group team lost the ability to go into
Advanced view (as if they weren't privileged). I suspect this is the
larger root cause of my issue. Can anyone tell me where in the database
schema the flag is set for privileged users? 

 

Also, my messages logs are littered with "Couldn't load user from
database" errors when an admin tries to login. This was occurring before
I disabled the RT Admnistration group.

 

Any help is appreciated to get my privileged accounts back online.

 

Cheers

 

Paul

Apologies.  I'm too much in the thick of things right now that I'm losing
track of what is local customisation and what is add-on module and what is
core functionality.  I guess we will be using the SLA stuff a bit differently
to how it was initially conceived.

We're in the process of replacing an ancient and  distinctly unsatisfactory
ticketing system with RT.  What we've done is set up a '[_1] Highest Priority
Tickets in the Support Queue' search portlet on the At-a-Glance screen for
our Support team, displayed in descending order of priority.  There will be
an on-duty Support person 24x7 one of whose tasks will be to watch for incoming
support requests and assign SLA values according to the nature of the problem:
these can vary from '10 business days' for routine things like renewing SSL certificates down to 1 hour for a 'Service Down' incident.

We also use a modification of the 'StatusInColour' customization from the
Wiki to colour the items based on the value of the priority field (Well, we
will be. I upgraded from 3.6.7 to 3.8.2 yesterday and haven't quite got round
to porting that bit over yet.  Tomorrow probably)  The idea is: if it's at the
top of the priority list, then that's the next thing to work on, and if it's
coloured bright red, it really needs attention *right* *now*.

This works by using rt-crontool with LinearEscalate to raise ticket priorities
as they get closer to their due dates.  We're running rt-crontool for the
Support queue every 15 minutes -- however as all the tickets default to using
the Queue's default initial and final priorities (0 and 99 respectively) it
means an urgent problem with a SLA of an hour only gets 3 or 4 updates before
it's overdue, and it would only tend to come to the top of the list on the last
update.  Hence the desire to automatically set initial and final priorities based
on the manually chosen SLA value.

	Cheers,

	Matthew

Might as well do that now, since we're out of hours.  I've started  
that off.

Message-ID: <9f9b69440902171319o55ff1d58l36df8e9aec877cf6@mail.gmail.com>

Hello world!

I have a brand new installation of RT 3.8.2.
The configure, testdeps, e install worked propperly, and I was able to
run initialize-database, all ok so far.

But setting apache to run the web interface fails because of bin/webmux.pl file.

Whenever I have the line:
PerlRequire "/opt/rt-3.8/bin/webmux.pl"
in my apache config file, apache crashes with the error:

[error] Can't locate object method "Config" via package "RT" at
/opt/rt-3.8/bin/webmux.pl line 100.\nBEGIN failed--compilation aborted
at /opt/rt-3.8/bin/webmux.pl line 102.\nCompilation failed in require
at (eval 243) line 1.\n

I've tryed som workarounds found at this list archives and other
foruns, but none worked.

I've tryed upgrading UNIVERSAL::require as suggested, but it was
alread in the newest version.

I checked if it could be the config of SELINUX, but it was already set
to permissive. Nothing in the /var/log/messages.

Also tryed adding the code bellow in webmux.pl, after the BEGIN block,
but nothing changed.

require Apache::RequestUtil;
no warnings 'redefine';
my $sub = *Apache::request{CODE};
*Apache::request = sub {
    my $r;
    eval { $r = $sub->('Apache'); };
    # warn $@ if $@;
    return $r;
};

I have apache 2.2.9-10 and mod_perl 2.0.4-1 in a Debian/Lenny box.

Any fixes for that?

Subject: [rt-users] Multiple attachments error
Message-ID: 

Hi,
I've seen this question asked before, but have not seen a definitive
reply yet so thought it worth asking again.

We have an intermittent issue regarding attachments, and it seems to
happen more often when users are including multiple attachments. The
error message is as follows:

read-open /tmp/husk4zilgH : No such file or directory at
/usr/share/perl5/MIME/Body.pm line 435.

We're running RT 3.6 on an Ubuntu server. The /tmp folder is owned by
the correct user and permissions are 700.

As I say this appears to happen more when there are multiple
attachments involved, it also appears to happen more when the system
is generally
busier (as I can't get it to fail at all out of hours). As a result,
I'm wondering whether RT is uploading a file into /tmp which is then
being overwritten and deleted by somebody else's upload. That would
explain why it happens more for multiple attachments, as it's
generally longer between the first upload and submit. However, I can't
be sure.

Is there a workaround to this? If not, as a last resort, is it
possible, with an RT or Perl modification, to set the temporary
filename used to be a random 20 character
string rather than a random 10 character string (assuming that the
overwriting theory is correct)? We'd like to do everything possible to
fix this issue with the currently installed version rather than an
upgrade, due to the various customisation we have in place.

Any help would be gratefully appreciated,

Ian

This codepath got ~entirely reworked for RT 3.8 due to just this issue.
If you can bring your test system up to current to verify the fix
locally, you _should_ it working better.


Best,

OK, OPTIMIZE TABLE done, but performance on SELECT COUNT(id) FROM  
Attachments is still terrible:

This does sort of smell like an optimiser bug - it says it's using  
indices, but the level of I/O being done by the machine suggests it's  
actually performing a full table scan.

Now, I may be being silly here, but how can a table with only 806180  
id's in its primary key have more than 3 million rows?  And counting  
them takes three minutes, which really isn't many rows a second...

Is this stored in InnoDB by chance?  If it were me, I would mysqldump all
databases, nuke the back-end InnoDB files and reload from dump.  But that's
just me.

Indeed. Before you dig deeply into what's going on with this version of
mysql, coming up to a current 5.0.x probably makes sense.

An excellent question. I have a sneaking suspicion there's some DB
corruption in there somewhere :/ But maybe it's just a database bug.

That was my worry.  I've shuffled the virtual machine onto a physical  
server with no other VM's running, and the performance problem remains  
the same.  The graph of disk I/O from the VMware control center shows  
the system doing no I/O at all until I start the SELECT, and then it  
goes to about 15 MB/sec for the duration of the query.

So if there is contention, it's not at the level of the physical  
server's I/O.  However, it could still be contention for the SAN  
volume which hosts the virtual machine; I find this hard to believe  
since the total I/O of all three physical servers is pretty low, but I  
will try tomorrow to see what happens if I move the virtual machine to  
its own piece of storage,

Subject: [rt-users] Attachments table constantly fragmenting
Message-ID: <8fae230c0902171523n2ef88354s6036c2dd64a29e5d@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

I've been using the mysqltuner script to check up on things, tune mem use to
our resources, etc.  One thing remains consistent:  no matter what i have
things set to, within a few hours of restart or full stop / start (at most),
the Attachments table becomes fragmented.  Here's the most recent report,
and i realize it's only a few hours since last restart:

-------- General Statistics

-------- Recommendations
-----------------------------------------------------
General recommendations:
   Run OPTIMIZE TABLE to defragment tables for better performance
   MySQL started within last 24 hours - recommendations may be inaccurate
   Temporary table size is already large - reduce result set size
   Reduce your SELECT DISTINCT queries without LIMIT clauses

CPU's a quad-core Xeon, there's 8GB of phys RAM, and the disks are 10k SAS
in hardware RAID-1.
Even when used after the 24hr minimum (or 3 days, or 8 days), three things
remain: a fragmented table which always turns out to be attachments; the Key
Buffer Hit Rate; and the temp tables on disk stat.  I don't fully understand
the latter two and haven't figured it out yet by online docs and commentary,
but i get the impression it's the nature of our DB structure and queries
used.

Important note about that - the MySQL server on this box is hosting two
DBs.  rt3 is one, but an internal DB we use for mumble mumble is also on the
box.  I'm not sure if that custom-written DB and its UI used across the
office by all employees is the reason for the key buffer / temp table
alerts; the programmer for that one is working on the two recommendations of
reducing result sets (may not be possible) and making sure there are LIMITs
on his queries wherever possible.

Should I be worried about the constantly-fragmenting Attachments table?  Can
i get more fine-grained info about it from within MySQL?

Thanks,
Rob

OK, I've just moved up to 5.0.51a, as supplied in etch-backports, and  
the problem persists.  An ANALYZE TABLE on the Attachments table has  
helped a bit with the ludicrous statistics from EXPLAIN, but they're  
now just very silly rather than ludicrous:

mysql> explain select count(id) from Attachments;
+----+-------------+-------------+-------+---------------+--------- 
+---------+------+---------+-------------+
| id | select_type | table       | type  | possible_keys | key     |

4       | NULL | 2324446 | Using index |
+----+-------------+-------------+-------+---------------+--------- 
+---------+------+---------+-------------+

A reload might be the way forward here.

There is a part of me wondering what suddenly broke this today.  I'm  
currently searching the table for suspiciously large looking  
attachments.

Fragmentation is normal, especially with that read/write ratio.  It doesn't
necessarily indicate a problem.  You can periodically optimize the
fragmented tables to improve performance, if performance becomes an issue,
which should only be if RT does large ranges on primary keys or full table
scans (naughty!).  Otherwise, I'd ignore it.

First time I see something like that. May be it's better to ask on
mysql lists. And sure you should keep digging into a reason. My
practice shows that there is no such thing as "suddenly" in IT. There
is always some change that turn world up side down.

optimize/analyze on InnoDB don't do the same job as on myisam tables,
it's documented in mysql's docs. You can find way to rebuild indexes
on a table and as the last resort use full re-load.

Thanks Matthew!
I am still a bit foggy on how to use this module and what it really
does.  I configured the custom fields with a sort value, name and
description (I did not know what to put for category).

Care to share your ColorMap config with the SLA priorities?

TIA,
Steve

I think  that's what I'm going to do - the slave of our RT instance,  
which is also running MySQL 5.0.51, performs the same query in only 15  
seconds, not four minutes...

We've had a flash of realisation, and we think we know what the  
problem is.  This virtual machine has a snapshot on it.  This means  
that all writes subsequent to the snapshot being taken have been going  
to a replay log, rather than to the .vmdk file that the virtual  
machine lives in.  Presumably this is a much more complex scenario for  
I/O to operate in than when snapshots are not present.  I hadn't  
realised this was how VMware snapshots work.

So, I'm deleting the snapshots now, but this is a very time consuming  
process because it's having to replay a week's worth of RT writes back  
into the .vmdk file.  We'll let you know whether this solves the  
problem.

Hello,

Some time ago I asked you for hints / clues regarding the setup of RT 
3.8.1 running on RHEL5, using Vintela Authentication Services (VAS) and 
Active Directory + Kerberos.
I just couldn't stop thinking about it, so I kept digging ...

I finally figured out how to configure it to work correctly, so I 
decided to share it in case someone else would have similar issue.


first thing RT_SiteConfig.pm

just add these three lines:
Set($WebExternalAuth , 1);
Set($WebFallbackToInternalAuth , 1);
Set($WebExternalAuto , 1);



apache configuration:
in your virtual host definition
(within   .........  )

AuthType VAS
AuthName "Systems Support Request Tracker"
AuthVasUseBasic On
AuthVasRemoteUserMap local
Require valid-user

after the  you will need this:

     Satisfy Any
     Allow from all


otherwise RT's mailgate will not accept any emails to your RT system.


one final information is, that this setup assumes that you have 
installed and configured the following module for your apache:
mod_auth_vas

which is available on http://rc.quest.com


Hope this will save some time to someone :)

regards,
Marcin

Message-ID: <8fae230c0902180838s53a51629v5b20f6c303cf560b@mail.gmail.com>

I noticed this in ExternalAuth's .08 patchnotes:

* html/Callbacks/ExternalAuth/autohandler/Auth

        Modified the log message regarding the RT-3.8.[01] plugin
        bug from error level to debug level and modified the text
        of the message to be more clear for RT-3.8.2+ users.

and for .08_01:

* html/Callbacks/ExternalAuth/autohandler/Auth

        Workaround for RT versions 3.8.0 and 3.8.1 removed.
        RT::Authen::ExternalAuth v0.08 will be officially compatible
        only with versions 3.8.2 and up.

However... I'm running .08 and RT 3.8.2, and while debugging something
else, i noticed this:

I have ExternalAuth working, and i'm definitely using 3.8.2, so i'm
not sure if i managed to accomplish something especially weird here...

Message-ID: <8fae230c0902180841i257443c7q45be636810b8d338@mail.gmail.com>

Mr. Evans first posted about this 11/08.  In archives, i see no
replies to the thread.  I haven't heard anything either, and can't
find anything but Greg's original post on the web.  If this is a taboo
subject or something, please let me know, but i'd really like to be
able to do this :).

Thanks,
Rob


---------- Forwarded message ----------
Mornin',

I found a post from a ways back asking how to do this, with a
nonfunctional scrip code.  The OP wants to do what i want to do:

"What I am trying to do now, is on each ticket submission, Extract
that [Custom] field
and then check to see if there is another ticket that has that same number
in the custom field and if they match, merge the tickets."

My first question is, assuming a reasonably tuned MySQL suitable to
its (fast) hardware: how horrible would this be in an ever-growing DB?
 It must search the DB for every last ticket and compare the two CFs,
yes?

The posted code was:
---
my $TicketsObj = RT::Tickets->new($RT::SystemUser);
$TicketsObj->LimitQueue(VALUE => 'AfterHoursSupport');
$TicketsObj->LimitCustomField(CUSTOMFIELD => 'AfterHoursTicketNumber',
OPERATOR => '=', VALUE => $AHTixNum);

if ($TicketsObj->Count == 0) { return 1; }
my $id = undef;
while (my $ticket = $TicketsObj->Next) {
next if $self->TicketObj->Id == $ticket->Id;
$id = $ticket->Id;
last;
}

$id || return 1;

$RT::Logger->debug("Merging ticket " . $self->TicketObj->Id . " into $id
because of OA number match.");
$self->TicketObj->MergeInto($id);


1;
---

The OP did not specify exactly which chunks went where, but that he'd
tried various combinations of condition and prep.
My first thought was that this was incorrect; the condition is
OnCreate and no code need go in that block.  Prep should be the field
search and compare, and cleanup the ticket merge itself, yes?

(the above is the OP's exact code and doesn't reflect my own setup).

0.08_01 was a development version and should be ignored and discarded.

It doesn't check if you're on 3.8.[01] it just reloads RT::User no
matter what. Just happens it only makes anything different if you're
using 3.8.[01].

You can safely ignore the message.

After chasing some red herrings we found something "interesting":

mysql> select count(*) from Attachments;
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
|   807113 |  
+----------+
1 row in set (1 min 47.01 sec)

mysql> select count(*) from Attachments ignore index(PRIMARY);
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
|   807113 | 
+----------+
1 row in set (0.66 sec)

So I did a quick "alter table Attachments drop primary key, add primary
key (id);" and now we are seeing much more sensible behaviour:

mysql> select count(*) from Attachments;
+----------+
| count(*) |
+----------+
|   807568 | 
+----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

There is still an occasional hiccup when it goes slower - possibly when
an Attachment has been added - but by and large it's working as expected
now.

Thanks everyone for your help, I've learned rather a lot about MySQL in
the last day or so!

Cheers,
Dave

Should add that any form of full text search of Content is still  
taking so long that the web interface times out, and in some browsers  
this can then have a nasty effect on the session and you can't open  
any more RT windows without shutting down your browser (behaviour seen  
on both IE and Firefox)

Looks like the yum update missed new added dependencies in 3.8.2.

# sudo cpan Class::Accessor::Fast

Should sort it out.

Tim,

That is a consequence of the I/O needed versus the performance of your
I/O subsystem. If full text search of content is needed I would recommend
using a backend database with that support. Currently there are two
recipes on the wiki for adding that support to Oracle and PostgreSQL. I
am biased,  but the PostgreSQL recipe is extremely easy to set up and
preforms wonderfully -- but I am biased. :)

Cheers,
Ken

Oh, when it mentioned "more clear for 3.8.2 users," i was looking for
3.8.2 to be mentioned in the logline, i think.  Wrong context.  For a
minute i thought i'd somehow managed to be running on a version
earlier than 0.08.

Not quite that volume, but getting there, with a strong likelihood of
increased growth over the next few years. An attachment-less ticket
will be the exception.  Thanks for all the info; a noninvasive monthly
OPTIMIZE seems like it won't hurt anything, and making a schedule for
it now means it'll be in place when it matters later, and i won't have
to get users used to the maintenance window :)

RT doesn't directly require Sys::Syslog, but a downstream dependency,
Log::Dispatch does. 

sudo perl -MCPAN -e'install Sys::Syslog'

should do the trick.

>From my original blundering attempts to get RT up and running,
webmux.pl is what complains when something is misconfigged or
incorrect in basic setup.  RT_SiteConfig is read, modules are loaded,
etc., and if it chokes on any of this, webmux.pl cannot execute
properly; and since you're requiring it for apache to run, apache
cannot start.

We should probably see your RT_SiteConfig file, for starters.  If you
have any plugins set, comment them out maybe and see if it starts
then?

Either get the right version of perl-Log-Dispatch off rpmforge, or do what I do when I run into version mismatches and build a copy of the required module prefixed in site_perl with cpan2rpm (create the SRPM then clean the spec as needed). This has worked well for me on CentOS.

Message-ID: 

I have this working in my RT 3.8.2 installation.  It isn't a very busy system and I have yet to notice any performance issues.  We only get about 50 tickets per day and it has less than 5000 tickets in the system.

First, you need to setup and use the RT Extension to extract custom fields. http://search.cpan.org/~alexmv/RT-Extension-ExtractCustomFieldValues-1.8/ (There is a newer version 2.0 out which I have not used yet)

Make sure this scrip runs before the merge scrip.  Otherwise, the custom fields won't be populated to match on.  I did this by naming the scrip "1Add UniqueID Custom Field".

Once you are sure the Custom Field extraction is working, The following scrip should get you started on being able to match and merge on that field.  The Custom Field name I match on is UniqueID.  I omit the check for the queue which is in the previous scrip example you posted.

Description: "2Merge on UniqueID match" (the 2 at the beginning has it run just after the CF extraction)
Condition: OnCreate
Action: User Defined
Template: Global template: Blank
Stage: TransactionCreate

Custom condition: 


Custom action preparation code:
1;

Custom action cleanup code:

my $uniqueid = undef;
$uniqueid = $self->TicketObj->FirstCustomFieldValue('UniqueID');
$RT::Logger->debug("My Uniqueid: $uniqueid for search.");

my $TicketsObj = RT::Tickets->new($RT::SystemUser);
$TicketsObj->LimitCustomField(CUSTOMFIELD => 'UniqueID', OPERATOR => '=', VALUE => $uniqueid);

if ($TicketsObj->Count == 0) { return 1; }
my $id = undef;
while (my $ticket = $TicketsObj->Next) {
next if $self->TicketObj->Id == $ticket->Id;
$id = $ticket->Id;
$RT::Logger->debug("Merging ticket " . $self->TicketObj->Id . " into $id because of UniqueID number match.");
$self->TicketObj->MergeInto($id);
}

$id || return 1; 

1;

I'm running 2.0 of ECFV with my 3.8.2 - works perfectly, except i
don't know how to tell it to stop looking after first match.

> Custom action preparation code:
> 1;

Interesting - why this, instead of leaving it blank?

> my $TicketsObj = RT::Tickets->new($RT::SystemUser);

I have no idea what this means.  That is, i imply it's gathering
itself to cycle through all existing tickets, but i'm not sure what
new(system user) has to do with anything.

Is this sort of basic info covered in the O'Reilly book?  I'm having a
hard time finding a comprehensive list of the various $meanings and
$parts.

My only remaining issue with this function now is that, as mentioned,
the last match with ECVF always wins - i am searching the body for my
CFs, and multiple matches replace previous.  I'm not sure how to
constrain a given CF to the first match found, as that's always the
one i want, and later mentions are always historical in context ("This
value is now foo.  Value previous to this was blah," etc., and i end
up with blah in my CF instead of foo).

Thanks Jeremy, this was driving me nuts.  I do not understand enough
about to role of prep vs cleanup to have known i needed a return in
there - was leaving blank.  Was also splitting match code and merge
code into prep and cleanup respectively.  Neither worked...

I'm getting the "ERROR 1062 (23000) at line 210: Duplicate entry '' for key 2" 
error when updating the database from 3.4.5 to 3.8.2.  I see from this message:

that I have a few different choices as to how to solve this.  However, I'm not 
a mysql expert, so I'm afraid I'll need a little more help.

I've tried changing the Users table's collation to utf8_unicode_ci, however I 
still get the same error when updating the database.  What collation should I 
use to prevent this error?  The original collation is latin1_swedish_ci.

I've also tried to find the affected rows so that I can rename the users. 
However, I'm not getting anywhere.  The error says that the duplicate 
entry is '', however "select * from Users where Name='';" returns zero 
rows.  I've also tried dumping the Name column into a text file and using 
the uniq unix command, but it finds no duplicates.  What is the best way 
to find duplicate entries?

I am in the process of migrating RT from an old server running Fedora Core 4, RT ver 3.8.1, and mysql version 4.1.20-log.  I upgraded RT on this old server a while back and ran into the random logouts, binary attachment problems, etc.
  
I have installed a new server running Cent OS 5.2.  The installation of RT 3.8.2 and restore of the data from the old server is complete. This server is running mysql version 5.0.45.

>From what I have read in all the documents, I need to upgrade my database on the new server since it was running on an old version of mysql.  However, when I run this:  "perl etc/upgrade/upgrade-mysql-schema.pl rt3 password password > sql.queries", it returns:

Subject: [rt-users] Forward an entire ticket to an outside email address.
Message-ID: <499C99F5.8070508@abshernw.com>

I have a quick question about RT.

We have a group of technicians that work entirely from the RT's web 
interface, so they never see any email. This works great, but they want 
a way to forward a ticket, including any attachments, to an outside 
email address.

I have no idea how to get this accomplished, my first thought was to 
write a perl script that would send the ticket log and attachment to an 
email address of choice. I'm a intermediate perl programmer on a good 
day, so I was wondering if anyone had any better ideas.

Thanks in advance,

Chris

Also, everyone at my company loves RT, it has changed the way we do support!

thats because the test user on your mysql db requires a passwd

read the docs and provide the passwd for the test user

cpan

upgrade DBD::mysql

Your version of DBD::mysql is to old to do the upgrade. I ran into this 
earlier today.

Thanks,

Hi Jesse

 

Please ignore previous post. CPAN was not installed. Installed via yum, ran

Message-ID: <499D5F7B.6070502@thebunker.net>


Dear all,

When I click on 'graph' links in the Ticket display I get an error like so:

Command 'dot' not found in /bin, /usr/bin at 
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/GraphViz.pm line 1160 Stack: 
[/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.9/Carp.pm:44] 
[/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/IPC/Run.pm:1213]

[/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/IPC/Run.pm:2758] 
[/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/IPC/Run.pm:1432] 
[/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/GraphViz.pm:1160] 
[/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/GraphViz.pm:981] 
[/usr/local/share/rt38/html/Ticket/Graphs/Elements/ShowGraph:49] 
[/usr/local/share/rt38/html/Ticket/Graphs/Elements/ShowGraph:49] 
[/usr/local/share/rt38/html/Ticket/Graphs/index.html:57] 
[/usr/local/share/rt38/html/autohandler:311]

which is entirely understandable as under FreeBSD, dot is installed as
/usr/local/bin/dot :

# /usr/local/bin/dot -V
dot - Graphviz version 2.20.3 (Mon Feb 16 20:41:15 UTC 2009)

Similarly, none of the GPG functionality is working and there are many
instances like the following in the log file:

[Thu Feb 19 13:15:04 2009] [debug]: Probe for GPG failed. Process exitted 
with code 13 (/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/RT/Crypt/GnuPG.pm:2362)
[Thu Feb 19 13:15:04 2009] [debug]: RT's GnuPG libraries couldn't 
successfully execute gpg. PGP support has been disabled 
(/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/RT/Config.pm:350)

gpg is installed and working just fine, but again -- as /usr/local/bin/gpg:

:# /usr/local/bin/gpg --version
gpg (GnuPG) 2.0.10
libgcrypt 1.4.4

Compression: Uncompressed, ZIP, ZLIB, BZIP2

Now, I had thought this was simply down to the environment Apache is 
started up with, or that it would pass through to CGI scripts.  However
no amount of fiddling with /usr/local/etc/apache22/envars.d/path.env
or adding 'PassEnv PATH' in the apache config or of other similar attempts
has made any difference.  Neither have I been able to find any solution by
grepping through quantities of perl modules.

Is there a standard means either for setting the PATH rt applies to
commands it invokes, or for supplying a fully qualified path for 
subsidiary programs it invokes?

	Cheers,

	Matthew

Re-install the GraphViz and GnuPG modules using the correct
paths to these programs. Alternatively, you can make a symbolic
link from the actual location to where the module is looking for
these programs.

Hi Alll,

 

I have a problem that has shown up over the last week. It looks as if
every single person who has ever submitted a ticket request has had a
user autocreated. These users now how up in query builder when we try
and do a search on the owner. Selecting the owner shows every single
email address of every person who has ever submitted a support request.

 

Any ideas how to prevent this from happening?

 

RT  3.8.0

 

Thanks in advance

Bashir,

You need to fix your permissions. Somewhere you are letting every
address own a ticket. That is what determines what shows up in the
pull-down. Happy hunting.

Man how did this happen, all user have ticked "Allow user to access RT"

I am assuming this is the permission problem. Problem is how do i
disable this....Thousands of email addresses....

I think you're misunderstanding how the system works.

In order to raise a ticket, the ticket must have a requestor. If the
requestor doesn't exist as a user, the ticket can't be created. If you
want someone to be able to create a ticket by email, it must auto-create
an account for them based on the e-mail address.

What you're seeing is normal behaviour. It would only be a problem if
they were all being granted privileged user status (the checkbox for let
this user be granted rights). In that case, then they would all show up
in a user-selection combo box.

I have done the following:

Checked for a specific user in the search box as owner to confirm it
shows up. Then went into the specific user and unchecked "/users/Access
Control/Let this user access RT" checkbox and confirmed that the user no
longer shows up in the search box in the "Owner Field"

They never used to show up and cannot race if anything has happened over
the last week. Was on Leave and this was discovered while I was a way
and nobody is claiming any responsibility....

So there is now way for me to find out what happened...

Because that user is now disabled and is unable to raise tickets from
that e-mail address..

Both of those modules use the PATH setting in the environment to find
executables.  There is no explicit record of where programs were found at 
installation time.

And, no, I'm not going to make a rat's nest of symbolic links everywhere.
Fixing the thing that is broken is what is required, and in this case I'd 
say RT is pretty clearly not doing the right thing.

Has anyone ever written a webservice or something to remotely create and

I have done this in the past with the SSH and local scripts, but I would
rather not have to do that with this solution.

Thanks for you suggestions or help!

Nope, it will still exist in the database and will still be viewable if 
someone knows the id. The only way to truly delete is to use Shredder.

Now the graph links work, and the GPG links are actually showing up.

Message-ID: <519782dc0902190744hd06431at262b206e5911dabf@mail.gmail.com>

We have an RT instance in a trusted environment. I have the following in
RT_SiteConfig.pm:

Set($TrustHTMLAttachments, 1);
Set($PreferRichText, 1);
Set($MaxAttachmentSize , 10000000);

I even turned of the HTML scrubber, yet when I attach an html file to a
ticket and then save it back to my filesystem, the md5sum is changed. This
doesn't happen for other file types.

Anyone know what it going on?

Thanks!

md5sum changed and "mangled" are hardly the same thing. But yes, RT
canonicalizes text to UTF8 as it comes in.

Thanks for the reply Jessee,

The html no longer displays correctly in the browser after canonicalization.
Suggestions?

Thanks. This looks like a good solution, however I need something that  
can give me back the Ticket ID and other information immediately.  
Having to wait for an email reply from RT to confirm the changes, etc

The REST interface just gives you the information back immediately
if you don't count HTTP roundtrip time.

What do you mean "no longer displays correctly"?

The original file when opened up in a browser looks like a formatted web
page. After processing by RT the file look like it is rendered as what looks
like plain text in Safari. In Firefox there are a bunch of weird question
mark characters representing the spaces between characters. FF's page info
says it's a type = "text/html" and encoding = UTF-8.

That's a feature of RT 3.8.

Actually, you can't forward a whole ticket, but you can forward a comment or
correspondence.

Jesse,

That does not appear to be the case. Can I send the original file directly
to you?

Correction, the weird question mark characters are between every character

There is a REST interface and a corresponding Perl module (though that
might be a bit outdated with 3.8).

According to FF the original file has an encoding of UTF-16LE. It was
generated by Word. (I know, I know)

I just assumed that the values were hardcoded and not something
that changing your PATH setting would affect. Since that is the
case, this is the appropriate change. I am glad you fixed it.

Cheers,

Now we're getting somewhere.  Was it attached to a mail as an
attachment? If so, what do the headers for the original attachment look
like as they hit RT.  If not, how did it get into RT?

I'm using RT::Client::REST against 3.8.2 just fine.

It was attached in the web interface on the Create.html page. (Not a custom

StealTicket means you can take ownership of a ticket someone else owns.
OwnTicket is "who's allowed to own the ticket at all"

And what headers is RT serving it out with? Is RT announcing it as utf8?
Is that stored in the database as content-type?

If you save the raw data from RT to disk and open it in a browser, does
it render correctly? (Use wget, not your browser to save it. The browser
could corrupt it)

This is probably FAQ but I've been searching and coming up dry.

We changed the site to SSL.  Setup the apache vhost correctly.   
Changed the webbaseurl in RT_SiteConfig.  Changed the mailgate  
aliases.  Stopped apache and cleared the mason cache.

It's working just fine in an Apache sense.  Mailgate is working fine  
and submitting tickets.  We're getting notifications about new tickets  
and updated tickets.

...but we can't login.  The login page has no username/password  
prompt.  The login page is otherwise whole and displays correctly.   
There's just no username/password prompt.  No where to enter our login  
information.

It displays the same when downloaded with wget. (same md5)

Here are the headers via the wget -S option:

Bashir,


	What Mike was telling you is that if the "BOTTOM" box is checked for a 
user, they can have privileges. This means that if you grant the 
"OwnTicket" right globally to Privileged users, then all these 
requestors that send in tickets via email will have the right to OWN a 
ticket, hence they appear on the drop-down. So, you can do a couple 
different things to resolve this.
	1) Uncheck the bottom box on these Users. This could turn out to be a 
long, ongoing process unless you can set your RT_SiteConfig.pm file to 
allow them to become unprivileged users only (Top box checked ONLY). I'm 
not sure what that setting is, perhaps Mike knows.
	2) Remove the Global settings for "OwnTicket" and perhaps others like 
"TakeTicket", "StealTIcket", "DeleteTicket", etc.  from Privileged Users 
or "Everyone" and  grant those rights to groups of users. That way 
privileges are more defined in who can do what and your queries will run 
MUCH faster as well.
	Hopes this helps.

I'm also right now working on a ruby class that does essentially the same thing.

Using RT::Client::REST (or my ruby class when its finished) it should not be
hard to wrap the whole API in an XML-RPC service, or something similar, if you
really wanted to.  Though the wisdom of making a web service that accesses
another web service would definitely be questioned.  I suppose its likely that
if you are using, say, classic ASP, that XML-RPC access to RT::Client::REST
might be a far shade easier to code than re-writing RT::Client::REST in ASP.

If I can get permission to open source my ruby class, I will.

Alberto,


	They shouldn't be able to "Steal" a ticket (which means it already has 
an owner) unless that right is being granted somewhere. Have you looked 
at your global rights? Have you check memberships in groups and roles 
and compare the rights granted to those? HAve you checked both Global 
and Queue privileges?

Bingo.  Where can I send the beer?

For a bonus question: why did this work in non-ssl mode?  I remember  
setting this way way way back when we though we'd use http auth, but  
realized it was easier to just have our internal password management  
change the passwords in RT's database ;-)

So I figured I'd test this out.  It wasn't working, so I dug around  
inside RT/Transact.pm and I can't find this function.   Is this going  
into 3.8.3 or 4.0 ?

You should find it in Transaction_Overlay.pm

Sorry. the "a" at the end was a typo. It's been there since RT 2.0

I was just writing in to say "oops" when I saw you beat me to it.   
Oops ;-)

My problem was trying to directly use $RT::Transaction->IsInbound versus
     $self->TicketObj->IsInbound

It's working now, thanks!

I'd recommend starting in lib/RT/I18N.pm sub SetMIMEEntityToUTF8.
instrument there.

Hi all!

 

I have this problem because I have tried to update lots of tickets.

 

I have resolved giving grant to the "rt3" database to the "_rt_user"
user.

 

But. now I can initialize session with no user :-( :-( :-(

 

Some idea??

 

PS. The installation is a production server that it worked fine until 18.30 :-(
:-(

Subject: [rt-users] ERROR 1062 during 3.4.5 -> 3.8.2 database update
In-Reply-To: 
References: 
Message-ID: 


Just wanted to follow up on this.  I was able to work around the 
"Duplicate entry" mysql error by modifying the "ALTER TABLE" command that 
caused the problem to be "ALTER IGNORE TABLE."  The IGNORE mysql extension 
is described on this page:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/alter-table.html

Basically it will delete any duplicate rows encountered.  This is fine for 
my purposes, because I am confident that any duplicate rows in the Users 
table were caused by spam e-mails.  I will be running rt-shredder and 
rt-validator as well to delete any spam tickets associated with those 
users and make sure that the RT database is OK.

I had the same problem and it was caused by accents, since mysql has no 
accent sensitive collations (_as) aside from utf8_bin which is 
everything sensitive, I basically just removed the user (or rename) to 
fix the issue. Since emails generally shouldn't have them it's pretty 
safe to do, the old latin collations did support them to some degree.

Can someone please smack me upside the head on what search words to  
use to find the date search criteria?

The best I have found is not in the wiki, but
   http://web.mit.edu/tooltime/notebook/reference/search-guide.html

Some of the queries I have been failing to do

Queue1 tickets between 8am and 5pm for the most recent 8am.

Queue1 tickets between 2/5 8am and 2/6 10pm.

...etc

Yes, I have checked all permissions, and nobody has that.

Anyway, I will check them again.

Thanks! ;)

Alberto,


	They shouldn't be able to "Steal" a ticket (which means it already has 
an owner) unless that right is being granted somewhere. Have you looked 
at your global rights? Have you check memberships in groups and roles 
and compare the rights granted to those? HAve you checked both Global 
and Queue privileges?

I have just removed all privileges for the "Everyone" group and the
"Privileged" group has no rights assigned but still no luck.

Really baffled by this one.

Bashir,


	What Mike was telling you is that if the "BOTTOM" box is checked
for a 
user, they can have privileges. This means that if you grant the 
"OwnTicket" right globally to Privileged users, then all these 
requestors that send in tickets via email will have the right to OWN a 
ticket, hence they appear on the drop-down. So, you can do a couple 
different things to resolve this.
	1) Uncheck the bottom box on these Users. This could turn out to
be a 
long, ongoing process unless you can set your RT_SiteConfig.pm file to 
allow them to become unprivileged users only (Top box checked ONLY). I'm

not sure what that setting is, perhaps Mike knows.
	2) Remove the Global settings for "OwnTicket" and perhaps others
like 
"TakeTicket", "StealTIcket", "DeleteTicket", etc.  from Privileged Users

or "Everyone" and  grant those rights to groups of users. That way 
privileges are more defined in who can do what and your queries will run

MUCH faster as well.
	Hopes this helps.

Point 2) That is the way it is defined. The "everyone" group is only
allowed the "Comment, Create and Reply" as we auto create tickets. No
user is given any direct Rights. All rights are queue specific and is
assigned to groups.

Point 1) there is now way I can go though 100 000 non privileged
accounts and uncheck hte "Allow user to Access RT" Box.

Please help, is there any way to add it to the RT_SiteConfig" file and
rerun it to disable the "allow user to access RT" flag?

Bashir,


	What Mike was telling you is that if the "BOTTOM" box is checked
for a 
user, they can have privileges. This means that if you grant the 
"OwnTicket" right globally to Privileged users, then all these 
requestors that send in tickets via email will have the right to OWN a 
ticket, hence they appear on the drop-down. So, you can do a couple 
different things to resolve this.
	1) Uncheck the bottom box on these Users. This could turn out to
be a 
long, ongoing process unless you can set your RT_SiteConfig.pm file to 
allow them to become unprivileged users only (Top box checked ONLY). I'm

not sure what that setting is, perhaps Mike knows.
	2) Remove the Global settings for "OwnTicket" and perhaps others
like 
"TakeTicket", "StealTIcket", "DeleteTicket", etc.  from Privileged Users

or "Everyone" and  grant those rights to groups of users. That way 
privileges are more defined in who can do what and your queries will run

MUCH faster as well.
	Hopes this helps.

Subject: [rt-users] Strange things with RT 3.8.2 Approval system
Message-ID: 

Hello,

I have a problem with the approval system in RT 3.8.2. I want tickets
to get approved by two users.

This is exactly what I did :
- Default installation of RT 3.8.2
- Creation of two users, USER1 and USER2, privileged.
- New group with these two users MYPROJECT_APPROVERS
- Creation of a queue MYPROJECT_APPROVAL
  -> with a new template : approval_template (from Wiki/Oreilly book)

## BEGIN #############################################################################
===Create-Ticket: approval_MYPROJECT_1
Subject: Approval for {$Tickets{'TOP'}->Subject}
Depended-On-By: TOP
Queue:  ___Approvals
Owner: USER1
Type: approval
Content: Someone has created a ticket. you should review and approve
it, so they can finish their work
ENDOFCONTENT

===Create-Ticket: approval_MY_PROJECT_2
Subject: Approval for {$Tickets{'TOP'}->Subject}
Depended-On-By: TOP
Queue:  ___Approvals
Owner: USER2
Type: approval
Content: Someone has created a ticket. you should review and approve
it, so they can finish their work
ENDOFCONTENT
## END #############################################################################


 -> with a new scrip : approval_scrip
## BEGIN #############################################################################
Condition : On Create
Action : Create Tickets
Template : approval_template
Stage : TransactionCreate
## END #############################################################################

- Enable ___Approval queue
- Add rights OwnTicket and ShowTicket on ___Approval queue for
MYPROJECT_APPROVERS group
- Add rights CreateTicket,ReplyToTicket,SeeQueue,ShowTicket on
MYPROJECT_APPROVAL queue for MYPROJECT_APPROVERS group


This is the behaviour of this configuration :

##################
## SCENARIO 1
##################
- when user "root" (for instance) creates a ticket in
MYPROJECT_APPROVAL queue, a ticket is created with two tickets in the
"Depends on" section. One belongs to USER1, the other one to USER2.
Each user receives an email with this content :

## BEGIN #############################################################################
Greetings,

There is a new item pending your approval: "Approval for test12",
a summary of which appears below.

Please visit http://xxxxx.xx.com/Approvals/Display.html?id=31
to approve or reject this ticket, or http://xxxxx.xx.com/Approvals/ to
batch-process all your pending approvals.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Someone has created a ticket. you should review and approve it, so
they can finish their work
## END #############################################################################

- if one of the user logs in in the interface, he sees the ticket to
be approved in the approval section, no problem. Let's says he
approves it. The requestor (only) receives this email :
## BEGIN #############################################################################
Greetings,

Your ticket has been approved by USER1.
Other approvals may be pending.

Approver's notes: Ok for USER1
## END #############################################################################

- the other user logs in and approves the ticket and the requestor
receives this email :

## BEGIN #############################################################################
Greetings,

Your ticket has been approved by USER2.
Its Owner may now start to act on it.

Approver's notes: OK for USER2
## END #############################################################################


Remarks at the end of this scenario:
- I think the other approvers should receive a notification that the
ticket has been approved by one of them : do I have to add the
MYPROJECT_APPROVERS as admincc of the queue ? If I do this, standard
scrip will be applied, should I remove some of them ?
- The two emails are not exactly the same : one saying other approvals
may be pending, the other saying all of them are approved: how can I
send an email when the request is partially approved, and another
email once all the approvals are done ? For example, emails "Approved
by USER1", "Approved by USER2", "Approved by all the approvers"
- There is a comment in the email content saying "a summary of which
appears below." which is false. How can make it true ?


##################
## SCENARIO 2
##################

- If the first user rejects the email, the requestor receives this :
## BEGIN #############################################################################
Greetings,

Your ticket has been rejected by USER1.

Approver's notes:
## END #############################################################################

- The ticket is switched from open to rejected.

- The second user, who sees it has been rejected but still see it in
his approval section, can approve it. The requestor receives this
email :
## BEGIN #############################################################################
Greetings,

Your ticket has been approved by USER2.
Its Owner may now start to act on it.

Approver's notes: yes
## END #############################################################################

- And the ticket switches back from rejected to open.

Remarks at the end of this scenario :
- Why is the comment of the USER1 rejecting the ticket is missing ?
USER1 did a comment in the web interface but it doesn't appear neither
in the email nor in the web ticket log.
- IMO, it shouldn't be possible to approve a ticket once it has been
rejected by one of the approvers. Moreover, there is in the email "Its
Owner may now start to act on it." which is not true.



Maybe these problems are related to my configuration, so is my
configuration correct ? Do I use the approval system how it's designed
to be used ?

Thanks!

Message-ID: 

Hello List,

we're using RT 3.8.2.
Is there any chance to display (a preview of) tiff-attachments?
It works fine with .png, .jpg, etc... so it would be nice to see support for .tiff, too.


Kind regards,
Tom

Looks like vtd_rt_dbuser lacks the proper MySQL permissions write to the

Watch the queue, not the individual tickets.

My understanding is that if you do this, that user will not be able to 
email issues into your RT instance.  Is that what you want?  If users 
are showing up in the owner box on the query page, they are getting 
"OwnTicket" from somewhere. 

RTx::RightsMatrix would be very helpful for tracking this down.

Managed to fix it...

Service desk created a new Queue and assigned all rights to the
"Everyone" group for that queue...

Rights flowed down and hence they were given the incorrect rights...

Subject: [rt-users] How to inhibit Ticket search facility on user by user
	basis
Message-ID: <71c2cb8f51468f223c4f635d08f365a7792df17f@localhost>

Hello,

RT 3.8.2

How can I restrict who can see the search facility "Tickets", I do not want some users to be able to see this facility as it lists usernames as one of the options.


Regards Simon

This has been working.  Incoming tickets are scanned for CFs, then
merged when the CF i'm looking for matches.  Now here's a funny
story...

I can't create any child, or refers-to, or any other sort of new
ticket linked to this one.  It has the same CF value, and is being
Created, so.... it gets instantly merged into the original ticket...

The only workaround i can think of is to restrict the search and merge
to a queue, and create linked tickets outside that queue, but that
isn't very satisfying and means explaining to everyone why they can
never have two linked tickets in the same queue.  Anyone have a better
idea?

Hi Rob;

What happens if you create the ticket first, then update /modify it 
adding the CF and link relationship after ..
Its more clicks for the users but may work for you ..

In a way  I think there is some contradictions on what you doing, you 
want all tickets with the same CF to merge , but at the same time you 
want some not to

Regards;
Roy

I have two questions:

2.- I created a user within rt tool (command line), but the user cannot
authenticate via web interface. The question is: what is the attribute that it

I don't know of any web browsers that display TIFF images; certainly not IE or
Firefox.  I suppose it should be possible to internally convert the TIFF to a
browser-supported image type in a temp file and send that to the browser as a
"preview", but image conversion is very CPU expensive.  You're better off just
storing it as an image type that web browsers can display in the first place.

Message-ID: <499EECA4.2050002@fas.sfu.ca>

Greetings,

I am trying to upgrade my SuSE 10 rt-3.6 installation to rt-3.8 on
CentOS 5.2.

The SuSE installation authenticates users against our NIS maps via
PAM using Authen::Simple::PAM within Apache. This arrangement
does not work on CentOS because authentication via Authen::Simple::PAM
fails unless the effective user is root (Apache runs as nobody).

Can anyone tell me how to make PAM/NIS authentication for RT work
securely on CentOS 5.2?

I think Wikus knows that, I think he was hoping for a direct link or  
suggestion.

I've handled this by adding a script that sends updates to the ticket  
owner as well, but they get duplicates if they are a queue watcher so  
I'm curious about this.   I planned to dig around for functions today  
to see if someone is a watcher, etc.

This really does look like our content-type sniffing for HTML probably
wants to look inside the content for an encoding. But there's a chicken
and egg problem there.

I think you probably want to see if Encode::Guess does the right thing
with your utf-16 html. If so, then it might be a problem in how RT uses
it.

I look forward to further triage.

Hmmm. Just noticed this error:

Safari and Konqueror do, and a bunch of less significant ones.

Still, it's almost certainly a better use of your time to convert the

How small a test case can you get to fail like that?

Subject: [rt-users] Recurring mason_data Permissions Issue
Message-ID: <2f7527a00902201137g175372abuf7211b9fa0f09fbc@mail.gmail.com>

I just started getting a really strange error with my RT (3.8.2) installation.

At least once a week the permissions in the mason_data directory get
screwed up, resulting in errors like this when I try to access the web
interface:

Couldn't create object file
/opt/rt3/var/mason_data/obj/3452752852/standard/index.html.obj:
Permission denied

If I remember correctly one of the directories ends up being set with
root as the user and group. I'm afraid I forgot to check last time it
happened so I can't be sure.

I see NOTHING in my RT error log. My apache2 error log gives me:

 (9)Bad file descriptor: apr_socket_accept: (client socket).

To fix it I just chown/chgrp/chmod and everything works again, but it
happens frequently and the root issue needs to be addressed.

I found this thread:
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/43558 but it doesn't
really contain much useful information.

The issue doesn't seem to be precipitated by anything, though
sometimes it happens right after one of my users comments on a ticket.

Anyone have any ideas?

Alberto,


	Users are everywhere. Not only are they related to Principals, they are 
also related to ACL (if they have any rights), To GROUPS, GROUPMEMBERS, 
CACHEDGROUPMEMBERS, TRANSACTIONS, and TICKETS. For example. Let's say 
your RT installation allows Users to be added when they create a ticket 
via Email. Let's also say that you have set privileges to allow ALL 
Requestors some rights. Now an EMail is sent to RT. The result will be 
as follows:

	1) USER record for this person.
	2) PRINCIPAL record for this person.
	3) GROUP record for the "User-Equiv" record for this User.
	4) GROUPMEMBER for this User (as a Requestor) and this will repeat for 
all ticket this person has requested. There will also be records for 
everygroup this User is in, like "Everyone" and "
Privileged".
	5) CACHEDGROUPMEMBER record for each ticket and group.
	6) TICKET record will have the User if they end up as an owner.
	7) TRANSACTION record will exist for the initial Email that was sent 
listing the User as the "CREATOR".
	8) ATTACHMENTS record will exist for the User as the "CREATOR" for any 
attachments that came with the Email.
	9) ATTRIBUTES record will also exist if this User has the rights to 
create Queries and does and saves them. OR if this User uses the WebUI 
and sets up one of the default queries in  their home page. An ATTRIBUTE 
record will exist for each query.

	So, as you can see, the User can exist all over the place.
	As to your second question, I would go in as the "SuperUSer" and 
navigate thus Configuration->Users and find this user and make sure the 
two boxes at the bottom are checked. This will give the User the ability 
to acces the system AND have privileges granted. From that point, I 
would put the User in a group with other User that need the same 
privileges so you won't have to maintain rights on an individual basis, 
which is a LOT of work.

	Hope this helps.

The attached script and input file trigger the error. I think the
problem is the loop on @lines. The BOM is only in the first line so
the rest is cornfused.

If you're up for actually rewriting that as a test file that loads the
data and checks what it creates, I'm game for trying to debug it.

I'm not sure what you mean; this is the chain of events already.  The
ticket comes in, and ExtractCustomFieldValues scans the body for info
that goes into custom fields as it's created.

Some tickets will need to spawn other tickets.  Since they're related
to the same task / info / event, they need to have the same CF data.
But since they have the same CF data, the ticket Create event merges
it into the parent or referrer or whatever.

I guess what i want is tickets that are created via email submission
should be merged without user intervention, but manually created
tickets should not.

I do not envision success telling the users that, heh.

> not to

Yeah, i guess more precisely it's how they're created that's
important.  Automated systems may spew 2-10 notifications about the
same event, and they arrive via email, and they should all be one
ticket.  A user creating a ticket by hand should be trusted to be
creating a new ticket for a reason and not get it automerged.

If i can't solve this, i either can't automerge all the automated
duplicates, or i can't use links.  Neither option is attractive.

Clunky last resort at this point seems to be to clear the CF on the
form when following the Create link from Links... box, then add them
back afterwards.  Bleh.

Search for AddWatcher on the wiki which gives you several examples of
dealing with watchers from scrips.

For example: http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/AutoCcLastOwner

Duplicates are described on the wiki too:

see if it works if you add user2 to the cc of the approval scrip template for
user1, and vice versa for user1 in template for user2.

In RT::Approval::Rule::Passed, the partially approved and all approved cases are
simply using different templates ('Approval Passed' and 'All Approvals Passed',
respectively).   I don't think the workflow currently supporting sending both
types of mails in the last approval that triggers complete approval.

The section is the "Content" part in your template. you can use strings such as
{$Tickets{"TOP"}->Subject} to refer to the subject of the ticket to be approved
in the template.

I believe these are bugs.  I can take a look later.

You can click "edit" on "My Tickets", adjust the predefined search, and save it.
Alternatively you can create a system-wide saved search, then go to
Config -> Global -> RT at a glance to replace the default "My Tickets" with the
search you just saved.

Hi, 

I recently upgraded from a 3.6.5 rpm based install to source code 3.8.2 install. Everything seemed to go well and working well but from time to time the session authentication is lost when I click on a link to a ticket from my quick search or RTFM. I supply my login and password and rt gladly continues to the destination I chose. This is not consistent. Sometimes a blank page will present when clicking on a link 

Any ideas on why this may be happening

Mark,

Without any configuration information, my guess is that your
session table entry with MySQL is larger than the maximum query
size defined in your configuration file. Please feel free to
correct any and all of my possibly incorrect assumptions and it
may be possible to give some more related feedback. :)

Cheers,
Ken

If you install the RightsMatrix plugin, it makes it much easier to  
discover how someone has a particular right to a particular queue.

Hi Chia-liang,

Ok, thanks for the reply and the patch to prove your point, even though this 
doesn't work for me.  I believe that the internal approval system is assuming 
certain things about the tickets its handling, such as that the approval will 
be created along with the initial ticket, instead of possibly on an arbitrary 
status change, thus the initial state of the original ticket will not be "new" 
at all, but possibly "pending", or "resolved", or whatever.  As soon as the 
expected sequence of statuses is disturbed, the approval flow appears to fail 
to work as expected.  I think this is going to catch a lot of people out.

Perhaps RTx-WorkflowBuilder will be a more generic solution?

Hey everyone,
my problem has to do with setting permissions.

I have created a queue called IT support, and a group called Company
Employees.  The Employee group has the following rights on the group: create
ticket and show ticket.  These don't seem to be enough for a user in the
group employees to create a ticket as the queue name doesn't come up in the
create queue section of the screen or the quick create widget.  Am I doing
something wrong there?

Hi all
I'm using RT 3.8.2, It was working fine but these days it creates ticket in
odd numbers only (355, 357, 359)
when I try to search for tickets in even number message appear "Could not
load ticket 356".
can you help me to solve this issue, as it's wasting all even numbers.

thanks

Message-ID: <49A280E6.9020201@cutaway.it>

Hi all,
	I'd like to open a poll to list all the Plugins mostly used by RT
users. This, I suppose, should be useful to both rt users and rt
creators to deliver the best RT ever, by including features born outside
upstream but included and used by a lot of people.

Is it better maybe to have a wiki page for that?

Excluding handmade plugins, could be interesting to post the output of :

fgrep Plugins RT_SiteConfig.pm

this is mine :

#Set(@Plugins,(qw(Extension::QuickDelete)));
Set(@Plugins,(qw(RT::Extension::ResetPassword)));
Set(@Plugins,(qw(RT::Extension::MandatorySubject)));


feedback are welcome :D

Yes definitely I'd love to see a "RT 4.0 - the definitive guide"
published. Could be fun too being a proofreader for that manual :)

@all
Thank you for you answers, it's glad to receive so many feedback from

I personally think this is a task being handled well by the
BestPractical team already. When a plugin comes to maturity and has a
proven wide user base it gets included into a release.

> Is it better maybe to have a wiki page for that?

There is already a triplet of wiki pages relating to
modifications/extensions/plugins.

This is an invalid way to define extensions as each declaration will
override the previous. You should use, for example:

Set(@Plugins, qw(RT::Extension::ResetPassword
RT::Extension::MandatorySubject));

Then, adding QuickDelete would give:

Set(@Plugins, qw(RT::Extension::ResetPassword
RT::Extension::MandatorySubject RT::Extension::QuickDelete));

Including access to Custom Fields? IIRC the current RT::Client::REST
release doesn't handle the new 3.8 style naming convention yet.
Patches are in RT though...

Hi All,

I've been trying to find a good tool to get trends from my RT data on 
time spent etc. I've had a good look and cant find much,  but let me 
know if i've missed something really obvious.

I came across the RTx::Statistics package but couldnt see any movement 
on it in the last two years or so.

Then i found this awesome-looking RT Analyzer program 
(http://accelconf.web.cern.ch/accelconf/ica05/proceedings/pdf/O3_010.pdf) 
that was coded by some guys at a research institiution called cosyslabs. 
Have any of you seen this before or got it working before? I've emailed 
some of the guys listed in the paper but havent heard back from them yet.

Cheers,

Cheers Chia-liang!

I'll take a look and see if this helps us.  Any idea how long before a formal 
release is expected?

Subject: [rt-users] Logging -> Completely separating RT from Apache default
Message-ID: <49A2AA3C.7090204@jennic.com>

I've missed something somewhere and I'm not sure where.. some logging is
still slipping through to my default Apache error_log.

RT_SiteConfig.pm:

Set($LogToSyslog,                       '');
Set($LogToFile,                         'info');
Set($LogDir,                            '/opt/rt3/var/log');
Set($LogToFileNamed ,                   'rt.log');

Apache VHost Config File for RT:


    ServerName rt.example.com
    ServerAlias rt
    DocumentRoot /opt/rt3/share/html

    CustomLog /opt/rt3/var/log/apache-vhost-customlog common
    ErrorLog /opt/rt3/var/log/apache-vhost-errorlog

......


Yet, the runtime [error] and [info] messages are going into
/var/log/httpd/error_log (default for apache).

e.g.:
[Mon Feb 23 12:54:09 2009] [error]: WebRT: No ticket specified
(/opt/rt3/share/html/Elements/Error:82)

and

[Mon Feb 23 13:08:12 2009] [info]:
 #111/26875 - Scrip
7 On Correspond Notify Other Recipients
(/opt/rt3/bin/../local/lib/RT/Action/SendEmail.pm:301)

What have I missed?

I have installed, RT 3.8.2, on a RHEL5, and i have had problems to integrate
RT with Active Directory. I hope that someone had a solution to my problem,
there is my configuration.

Set( @Plugins, qw(RT::Authen::ExternalAuth) );
Set($rtname, 'somemachine.domain.pt');
Set($Organization, 'My organization');

Set($CorrespondAddress , 'someemail at domain.pt');
Set($CommentAddress , 'rt-comment at localdomain.com');

Set($Timezone , 'US/Pacific'); # obviously choose what suits you

# THE DATABASE:

Set($DatabaseType, 'mysql'); # e.g. Pg or mysql

# These are the settings we used above when creating the RT database,
# you MUST set these to what you chose in the section above.

Set($DatabaseUser , 'rt_user');
Set($DatabasePassword , 'password');
Set($DatabaseName , 'rtdb');

# THE WEBSERVER:

Set($WebPath , "");
Set($WebBaseURL , "http://somemachine:80");

Subject: [rt-users] Bug with reply and /txt files in 3.8.2?
Message-ID: <3CE7D8D453B27148BBCA0B2063B11E64D5FEEF@s-wor-e-001.SCOUTSOFFICE.local>

I think we have possibly found a bug in 3.8.2 on the ticket display. If
you do a reply and add a text file attachment it submits correctly and
shows the .txt file in-line with the ticket.

 

If I click Reply on that correspondence it doesn't include the message
body, it includes the .txt file contents with > at the start.

 

The response to the ticket requestor also doesn't include the .txt
attachment. Instead it includes a .htm attachment with the message body
in it.

 

I have also attached other attachments as well as a .txt file, and all
attachments work fine, with the exception of the .txt file. Again, it
transforms into a .htm attachment of the message body.

 

Does anyone else have this behaviour in 3.8.2?

Hey there,
Thanks for the reply!  Unfortunately that doesn't help as at the end of the
day i want users in the specific group to only have access to their own
tickets and see no other ticket.  And if possible to be able to see all
their requested tickets.  Does anyone else know how to achieve this?

Thanks
George

Have a look at Yarts http://www.bastian-friedrich.de/comp/yarts/ . it's
developed in PHP, so easy to customise to meet your needs.

Objet?: [rt-users] trend data on time spent/estimated

Hi All,

I've been trying to find a good tool to get trends from my RT data on 
time spent etc. I've had a good look and cant find much,  but let me 
know if i've missed something really obvious.

I came across the RTx::Statistics package but couldnt see any movement 
on it in the last two years or so.

Then i found this awesome-looking RT Analyzer program 
(http://accelconf.web.cern.ch/accelconf/ica05/proceedings/pdf/O3_010.pdf) 
that was coded by some guys at a research institiution called cosyslabs. 
Have any of you seen this before or got it working before? I've emailed 
some of the guys listed in the paper but havent heard back from them yet.

Cheers,

Yep. I could believe that there might be issues with escaping and very
oddly named CFs, which, IIRC, was what we've fixed in recent RT but none that I've hit.

Hi George,

I defaulted to granting a global right to the Everyone group to 
CreateTicket and ReplyToTicket on the relevant queue (in your case 
IT_Support). that should take care of your Company_Employees users 
needing to create tickets.

As for the Company_Employees group users being able to only see their 
own tickets. i saw a good suggestion on a post which was to do the 
following:
* don't grant the ShowTicket right to Company_Employees group on the 
IT_Support queue,
instead;
* grant the ShowTicket right to the Requestors group on the IT_support queue

that way, they'll only see their own tickets, even when they do a search.

The example RT_SiteConfig.pm provided with ExternalAuth is not where you
define the settings, it is just an example of the settings. You need to
put them in your normal RT_SiteConfig.pm file.

Copy & Paste will do.

Read the README.

I think you may also need to grant SeeQueue on the queue to the group.

Subject: [rt-users] Bug with reply and /txt files in 3.8.2?

 

I think we have possibly found a bug in 3.8.2 on the ticket display. If
you do a reply and add a text file attachment it submits correctly and
shows the .txt file in-line with the ticket.

 

If I click Reply on that correspondence it doesn't include the message
body, it includes the .txt file contents with > at the start.

 

The response to the ticket requestor also doesn't include the .txt
attachment. Instead it includes a .htm attachment with the message body
in it.

 

I have also attached other attachments as well as a .txt file, and all
attachments work fine, with the exception of the .txt file. Again, it
transforms into a .htm attachment of the message body.

 

Does anyone else have this behaviour in 3.8.2?

I'm running into road blocks here, wondering if anyone can provide what they did. I want uses to be able to log into RT and view their tickets, create tickets, and reply to their tickets from the web.

In order to view a ticket a user has created it seems like I must grant "ShowTicket" but the second I do this the user can now see all unowned tickets?

I'm using rt 3.8.0. Is there a way to adjust the main landing page to hide all the boxes by default except certain ones? For example I would like to hide Reminders, 10 newest unowned tickets, Quick search, and Dashboards.

Thanks for your time,
Joel

Message-ID: <8c87cb5a0902230852o6682daaev784bd39e4e728fad@mail.gmail.com>

I'm trying to setup a second instance of RT that has a different branding,
but uses the same SQL server, etc.

I copied my existing (and working) RT installation over to a new directory.
Then I created the new instance in Apache in the httpd.conf, changing the
file locations to the new directories.  Then I edited the RT_SiteConfig.pm
file to reflect the new file locations.

For some reason, the errors are showing up in the original directory's logs
and the error returned is:
[Mon Feb 23 15:47:56 2009] [warning]: [Mason] Cannot resolve file to
component: /opt/rt3-[NEWBRAND]/share/html/index.html (is file outside
component root?) at
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/HTML/Mason/ApacheHandler.pm line 853.
(/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/HTML/Mason/ApacheHandler.pm:853)

The browser returns a 404 error.

What am I missing?  Is it not possible to run two RT instances on the same
server?

Sincerely,

Joel,


	Try this: grant All the privileges for "Searches" Globally to 
"Privileged". Then grant "SeeQueue" and "CreateTicket" at the Queue 
level to "Privileged". Then grant "ShowTicket", "ShowOutgoingEmail", and 
"ReplyToTicket" at the Queue level to "Requestrors". That should give 
you a good start. Permissions are difficult to grasp at first (at least 
they were for me). I've found that a good rule to follow is to not grant 
too much at a high level. I never grant rights to Users and only to 
groups. I only grant the "Search" stuff and "ModifySelf" at the GLOBAL 
level. The rest is always for certain groups for certain queues. This 
works for me, but I have about 115 queues for technicaL support of 
different software applications and infrastructure support. Your 
installation may not need to be so protective or granular. Hope this helps.

Doug;

Are you using fast cgi , or mod_perl ??, with fastcgi you can run as 
many instances you want  --sorry I don't use so I do n't have working 
apache config,
with mod_perl you suppose to only run one instance due to how the 
mod_perl/mason work, however I did find a work around and this is how I 
got my instances working:

for each instance (brand), I have
RT_SiteConfig_brandx.pm (all in /opt/rt3/local/etc/ )
webmux-brandx.pl (which is a copy of webmux.pl adding the line  
$ENV{'SERVER'}    = 'my_brandx_instance.com'; #at the top where the rest 
of $ENV is being defined

Modify local/lib/RT.pm adding :

if ($ENV{'SERVER'} eq 'my_brandx_instance.com' ) {
        $SITE_CONFIG_FILE = '/opt/rt3/local/etc/RT_SiteConfig_brandx.pm' ;
}elsif ($ENV{'SERVER'} eq 'my_brandy_instance.com' ) {
        $SITE_CONFIG_FILE = '/opt/rt3/local/etc/RT_SiteConfig_brandy.pm' ;
}

You add these lines @ the top/start of sub LoadConfig

In you httpd.conf you call the correct webmux for your instance:
PerlRequire /opt/rt3/bin/webmux-brandx.pl

Thats it, the above setup allow you to share the same RT directory , so 
customisation is easier,

Hope that helps,

Regards;
Roy

Subject: [rt-users] Diplaying Custom fields globally
Message-ID: 

Hi All,
I am using the RT::Extension::SLA module, which is working great.  I am trying to figure out how to do something seemingly simple.  I would like the Custom SLA field to display globally on RT At A Glance and pretty much everywhere so that people can use that information to prioritize.  I found some docs for RT 3.6.2 but it was different; I know how to edit my own view and see them I just don't know how to make that the default view.

TIA,
Steve

Steve,


	I have done this for a couple of queries. You can modify the default 
fields to be automatically listed as display fields in the Query Builder 
tool by going to /RTHome/etc and chaning the RT_SiteConfig.pm file and 
making your changes. When I did this, I wanted the minimum fields that 
99% of my users used to be automatic. It takes "FOREVER" to add and 
subtract a field one entry at a time so this saved my users a great deal 
of time. I included a Custom Field in that list.
	You can also modify certain default Queries. I modified "Quicksearch" 
and "MySupportQueues" by copying the /share/html/whatever to a local 
version and then making my changes. Find out where the query you want to 
change exists and copy it to "local" and then change it. Hope this 
helps. OH. Be smart and keep a copy of your changes for the next upgrade.

It was pointed out earlier in the thread that the encoding was UTF-16LE.  I
was surprised when no one said "the conversion library we use doesn't
support automatic detection of/conversion from 16-bit encodings", but I
don't know what is being used in RT.

With the iconv library, if you want to convert from UTF-16, you have to
specify it as the "from" code.  As far as I know.  But it does work if you do.

Todd and I got further into it. We're using Encode::Guess, which should
handle this. Todd had some promising places to dig for a bug.

Ruslan,
Are these scrips or how to use them documented anywhere?

I'll be sending a test as soon as I finish converting this bugzilla
instance to a new RT instance. ;)

Subject: [rt-users] Color ColumnMap with SLA Column
Message-ID: <1235421337.21358.21.camel@localhost.localdomain>

Hi All,
I am using the ShowStatusInColor extension and the SLA Extensions and
would like my tickets' SLA fields to show up in color as well but I
cannot seem to get the query syntax correct in the ColorMap script.  I
basically edited the Priority ColorMap but it cannot compile because I
can't get the correct column name for my custom field.  here is what I
have:
[snip]
89 # Set the SLA numbers to a colour.
 90 sub SLAInColor {
 91         my $Ticket = shift;
 92 
 93         my $sla = $Ticket->CF.{SLA};
 94         my $colors = undef;
 95 
 96 # Change priority numbers to reflect your priority system.
 97         if ($sla == 'System Inoperable') {
 98                 $colors = "#FF0000";
 99        } elsif ($sla == 'Service Impaired') {
100                $colors = "#FF2000";
101        } elsif ($sla == 'General Inquiry') {
102                 $colors = "#FF4000";
103         }
104 
105         if ($colors) {
106                 $sla = "
$sla
"
107         }
108 
109                 return \"$sla";
110 }
[snip]

the offending line is:
93         my $sla = $Ticket->CF.{SLA};

It doesn't like the CF.{SLA} I have tried CustomField.{SLA}, CustomField

Subject: [rt-users]  RTFM Wikitext area, wiki syntax isn't working correctly
Message-ID: <22170897.post@talk.nabble.com>


I am running rt 3.8.2 with RTFM 2.4.1. I've setup a custom field with "Fill
in one wikitext area". I've read in the online wiki some guidelines as what
syntax's are allowed, but they don't seem to be working correctly for me.
IE: if i add a link like this, [My Link http://example.com] It displays "My
Link" and "http://example.com" as clickable areas. However "My Link" is
treated like an internal wiki page while "http://example.com" works.  And to
my understanding from reading the online doc's it should only show "My Link"
correct?

Curious: does Encode::Guess handle UTF-16(LE|BE) without a byte order mark?
 That would be ... fascinating.

No it doesn't. I think the problem is the RT code splits the message
into lines and processes each line separately. Only the first line has
the BOM (Byte Order Mark) so the conversion fails on the rest of the
lines.

If you click "Show" next to an outgoing mail message in RT 3.8.2,  
regardless of your preference settings text paragraphs are a single  
long line.

The following patch fixes that.  You might want to also check  
preferences and apply a font setting to the style="" attribute based  
on the user preference.

Net Consonance : consonant endings by net philanthropy, open source

Message-ID: <515377D9-71BE-4E62-A5D0-82B29090378F@netconsonance.com>

So I used the method Jesse described for matching inbound requests and  
am having the following problem:

Mon Feb 23 18:10:00 2009   RT_System - Priority changed from '45' to  
'95'
Mon Feb 23 18:10:00 2009 RT_System - Priority changed from '95' to '45'

I have one scrip to lower the priority on Correspondence, and this one  
to raise it:

if( $self->TransactionObj->IsInbound ) {
   if( $self->TicketObj->Priority < 50 ) {
     $self->TicketObj->SetPriority( $self->TicketObj->Priority + 50 )
   }
}
return 1;

How do I make sure this doesn't match tickets which I opened for  
myself and am updating periodically?

These are certainly valid things to want. I didn't get around to adding
complex subscription rules because it wasn't something we needed; the
simple rules that RT gives you today were already more than we needed.

I'd love to see these implemented, so if you can implement them well I'd
happily accept patches.

you are all correct and i think Andrea has done a tiny mistake, but i also

For strings use 'eq' instead of '==', for example: if ( $x eq 'some
string' ) { ....

To get value of a custom field of single type use
$ticket->FirstCustomFieldValue('SLA');, CFs with multiple values need
more work.

CF.{SLA} is end user syntax and is not perl, so you can not use it in the code.

Hi,
we run into broken attachments from time to time, broken in a sense that 
they can't be viewed, RT will return a 401 error.
When we forward them, the attachments are okay for both Thunderbird and 
Outlook users.
What's so strange about this is that it only happens from time to time.
Did anyone encounter this? Any suggestions?

Thank you all,

Hello,

 

I've just installed RT 3.8.2 on a Linux Debian Etch with apache2,

I've attached one image with the screen.

 

Can anyone help me?

You may not like this, but it's a feature, not a bug ;)

To change this, you have to edit the css in
/whatever_dir_rt_is_installed/share/html/NoAuth/css/web2/

for footer: layout.css -> div#footer
for login box: login.css -> #login-box

Hi,
I am using RT 3.8.2, and I have a problem on the homepage.

The length of the name of many of my queues are quite long(they follow a naming convention which tends to add a '.help' to the queue name) that it juts out of the the left frame, where we see tabs like homepage,configuration etc..

Earlier in 3.6, I didnt have this problem because the layout was different. I tried a lot to wrap the text, but in firefox which is the browser many ppl here use, I am unable to do so.

Can anyone help me out here?

The length of the name of many of my queues are quite long(they follow a naming convention which tends to add a '.help' to the queue name) that it juts out of the the left frame, where we see tabs like homepage,configuration etc..

Earlier in 3.6, I didnt have this problem because the layout was different. I tried a lot to wrap the text, but in firefox which is the browser many ppl here use, I am unable to do so.

Can anyone help me out here?

-Ashish

Calvin,

We're using a version of RTx::Statistics on RT v3.6.2.
It's partly working. Histograms are OK, but the line graphs (Tkts per
day, Multiple Qs, Time to resolve) display constant values across the
entire graph. I think the query is gathering data just from the latest
date rather than as an array across the date range, but we don't make
great use of the package and so haven't seen this as a priority fix.

The default RT reports get more use than RTx::Statistics charts.

No, it just allows them to see the queue. ShowTicket would allow them to  
see all tickets.

That means that if a ticket they requested is not owned by them they
wouldn't be able to see it right?

That would depend on your other permissions - why not give it a try and  
see what happens?

Hopefully this is really simple, but I haven't got it working yet.

I'm trying to search for text that would be in the "To:" field of the
headers of a ticket that was created via email. I've found (finally) where
this lives, it's in the attachment table in the DB.

When building a query, "content" does seem to search the headers field in
the Attachment table.

Is there no way to do this through the web interface? I don't see Headers
anywhere in the Query builder.

Currently, you will need to select "content" to search for something
anywhere in the content including the headers. There is not a header
specific item. This should not be too onerous if you have full-text
indexing available. The Wiki has instructions currently for Oracle
and PostgreSQL backends.

Cheers,
Ken

I am using RT 3.6.3, and I added the command by email.   How do I verify

My test email did not update/change the field, but did get added in the

I do not see any indications in 'Configuration ->Tools -> System

What is the syntax of the line to add in RT_SiteConfig.pm?  Or what am I

I'm so close now....but it's always selecting brandy (the new brand).  I'm
sure it's something small and simply that I'm missing now.  I really
appreciate your help so far.

I know the whole brandx, brandy thing is a little confusing.  I've double
checked all of the refences below, and brandx and brandy are used the
correct spots in each code snippet below.

Here is the output of the foo file that shows that the ENV variables are
being set:

tickets.brandy.com 
tickets.brandx.com 
tickets.brandy.com 
tickets.brandx.com 
tickets.brandy.com 
tickets.brandx.com 
tickets.brandy.com 
tickets.brandx.com 
tickets.brandy.com 
tickets.brandx.com 

I've double checked the httpd.conf file, inside of the brandy site, we have
PerlRequire /opt/rt3/bin/webmux-brandy.pl

Inside of the brandx site, we have
PerlRequire /opt/rt3/bin/webmux.pl

Here's my webmux.pl changes for the old brand:
#This drags in RT's config.pm
BEGIN {
    $ENV{'SERVER'}    = 'tickets.brandx.com ';
    RT::LoadConfig();
    if ($RT::DevelMode) { require Module::Refresh; }
}

Here's my webmux-brandy.pl changes for the old brand:
#This drags in RT's config.pm
BEGIN {
    $ENV{'SERVER'}    = 'tickets.brandy.com ';
    RT::LoadConfig();
    if ($RT::DevelMode) { require Module::Refresh; }
}

This is my RT.pm LoadConfig sub, right before it stats and loads the site

Such are the joys of CSS.

You could try using one of using one of the older themes,
reordering widgets so that it doesn't overlap anything else,
or shortening the name. Else, have fun with Mason...

Hello

If you want to adapt it , then you need to know bash/awk/sql/gnuplot but
this is not complicated (only a few lines of code)
however you can probably use it as is if you update the "for q in" line
only...

the reports created show tickets historic information per week
- tickets created per week per queue
- tickets resolved per week per queue
- currently open tickets per week

bash script :

#!/bin/bash

newTickets()
{ 
mysql -urt3 -pxxxxxxxx -h myhost rt3 -N -e "select count(*) from
Tickets,Queues where Tickets.queue=Queues.id and Queues.name in ($QUEUE)
and date(Tickets.Created) between '$BEFORE' and '$DAY'"  
}

resolvedTickets()
{ 
mysql -urt3 -pxxxxxxxx -h myhost rt3 -N -e "select count(*) from
Tickets,Queues where Tickets.queue=Queues.id and Queues.name in ($QUEUE)
and date(Tickets.Resolved) between '$BEFORE' and '$DAY'" 
}

openTickets()
{ 
mysql -urt3 -pxxxxxxxx -h myhost rt3 -N -e "select count(*) from
Tickets,Queues where Tickets.queue=Queues.id and Queues.name in ($QUEUE)
and date(Tickets.Created)<='$DAY' and ( date(Tickets.Resolved)>'$DAY' or
status='new' or status='open' or status='stalled')" 
}

HISTORY=9
FULLHISTORY=100
let H=$HISTORY+1
DAY=$(date "+%Y-%m-%d" -d "$H weeks ago ")
HTMLPATH=/var/www/html/statistics

echo "
RT statistics
" > $HTMLPATH/index.html

for q in  "'ops.support'":operations
"'team1.support','team2.support','team3.support'":backend
"'team4.support','team5.support','team6..support'":frontend 
do
  QUEUE=$(printf $q | cut -d: -f1)
  QUEUENAME=$(printf $q | cut -d: -f2)
  echo "

$QUEUE
">>$HTMLPATH/index.html
  echo "">> $HTMLPATH/index.html
  echo > $HTMLPATH/tickets_$QUEUENAME.csv
  echo > $HTMLPATH/tickets_full_$QUEUENAME.csv
  for d in  `seq $FULLHISTORY -1 0`
  do
    BEFORE=$DAY
    DAY=$(date "+%Y-%m-%d" -d "$d weeks ago ")
    [ $d -lt $HISTORY ] && printf "%s;%i;%i;%i\n" $DAY $(newTickets)

Good Morning,

We have a user that was just given administrator privelages to make some 
queue changes, but he cannot make any changes (given error "Access 
Denied"). Is there any tweak in the MySQL database so that I can 
forcefully grant him access to RT?

We're running RT 3.6.6.

What right exactly did you grant to him?
What things you want to allow him to do?

That's what I have, two different webmux.pl files...

They are in the same /opt/rt3/bin folder...

The old brand is called webmux.pl, the new brand is called webmux-brandy.pl

They are called in httpd.conf with these two separate lines in their
respective host entries...
PerlRequire /opt/rt3/bin/webmux-brandy.pl
PerlRequire /opt/rt3/bin/webmux.pl

And is RT calling the right RT_SiteConfig ??
I am guessing you have modified each RT_SiteConfig per brand??
what do you get when you restart apache and when you browse to each 
instance??

When extending RT::CustomFieldValues::External is it possible to find out which ticket this instance of the custom field applies to? For example, the values I want to show depend on who is added as requestors on the ticket. I looked at $self, but I can't seem to find anything that would reference me back to the ticket.

Subject: [rt-users] RT 3.8 and FastCGI out of memory via http but not https
Message-ID: <1235510073.30109.1302190257@webmail.messagingengine.com>

I had RT 3.6.7 installed on a Debian Etch machine, and all was well.  I
decided to upgrade to RT 3.8.2, and I upgraded the machine from Etch to
Lenny (making sure to clear out old custom-built Perl module packages). 
I rebuilt all the Perl dependencies missing from the Debian
repositories, and upgraded my RT install.  Now I have a strange
issue...hitting RT 3.8 via HTTP results in an "Out of memory!" error in
Apache's error.log, but visiting via HTTPS works fine.  Another RT 3.6.7
instance on this box works fine with both.

Apache vhost config (slightly edited for privacy on things like cert and
site names):

Changing the a_sessions table from longtext to longblob fixed it. 
Thanks, Steven!  Now that I know the answer I've found the other threads
relating to this, but I was apparently using poor search terms before :)

Shouldn't the upgrade scripts for "rt-setup-database --action upgrade" take
care of this?  Seems weird that it doesn't.

The schema changes necessary for this "major" upgrade were deemed too
invasive (and slow) to automate. UPGRADING.somethingorother talks you
through the update.

Message-ID: <519782dc0902241518y27467c12m82411852a709d991@mail.gmail.com>

I have production (mod_perl) and development (standalone_httpd) RT instances.

The mod_perl instance is configured according to RT's README but Mason
still tries to interpret the image.

Same thing happens in my standalone_httpd RT, even with the
autohandler. I think the default BP logo doesn't have any bits that
can be mistaken as Mason markup.

This is with the inplace layout, though I'm not sure that matters.

Ideas?

Subject: [rt-users] REST interface attachment weirdness
Message-ID: <49A4B3DC.6070800@bitstatement.net>

In the REST interface, if you make a request like:

Request: /REST/1.0/ticket//attachments/

You get a response like:

RT/3.8.2 200 Ok

id: 866
Subject:
Creator: 66
Created: 2008-08-05 00:27:27
Transaction: 2467
Parent: 864
MessageId:
Filename: word.doc
ContentType: application/msword
ContentEncoding: none
o
Headers: Content-Type: application/msword; name="word.doc"
         Content-Disposition: inline; filename="word.doc"
         Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
         Content-Length: 27648

Content: .....
         .....
         .....

Now, the content-length says 27648, but the length of everything after
"Content: " is 38884.  Noting that it has spaces in it after each newline, I
can search & replace "\n\s{9}" with "\n" and get to 38470 -- I'm still way
above 27648.  Now, supposedly this is base64 encoded, according to the
Content-Transfer-Encoding, but if I base64 decode this string of 38470 I get
a string that is 2314 bytes.

Worse, the actual file size is 31332, which is what I get when I download it
through the web interface interactively. This is greater than the
Content-Length header, and less than the "content" returned.  This is
obviously a bit puzzling.

If I use the REST request
/REST/1.0/ticket//attachments//content

I get the correct content, plus 3 extra carriage returns.  But I don't get
the filename, the size, or the content type.  I could do both, but then I'm
downloading the content from the REST interface twice per attachment, which
is silly, especially if its necessary to scale.

Is there a way I can reconstruct the content correctly from the former REST
call, or get the filename/content type/encoding with the latter?  I'd hate
to have to rely on patching the REST interface and then maintaining the
patch for when we upgrade.

it doesn't open properly either, so its not a corruption issue with the upgrade.

I took a PDF that is 401,353 bytes and attached it to a ticket.  Then I
downloaded it to another folder, and the file size on the one I downloaded

Nevermind, I seem to have fixed it, and am whacking myself with the Duh
Bat[tm] now.  Now the question is, did that fix my REST interface weirdness
as well.. probably.  It's late so I'll work on that tomorrow.

Message-ID: <1BD72A96-B044-4740-AB2C-67E2B7EC8CD9@netconsonance.com>

I'm trying to debug why dashboard mail isn't going out.

I had some errors in rt.log related to graphviz until I found the  
undocumented disableGraphViz set command and used it.  But now there  
is no error ... just nothing.  No attempt to send mail.  Funny enough  
-- if I delete a dashboard I do get e-mail saying that the dashboard  
is no longer there.  But never the dashboard mail.

Is there any way to get a dashboard e-mail done *NOW* instead of on a  
given hour?   Every attempt forces me to back off and wait another  
hour to see what's going wrong.  I'd love to say "run my dashboard  
RIGHT NOW" so I could use ktrace on it to determine what is failing.   
Please clue me in.

rt-email-dashboards has an --all option to ignore subscription date/time
constraints. Invoke it with --help to get more information. The --debug
and --verbose options will be helpful for you.

This isn't the first time I've heard of this failure mode so I'd be
happy to work with you to track it down. I wasn't able to reproduce it
myself.

doh!  Sorry, I misread the --all syntax in help to mean something  
different.  Anyway, I did figure it out:

[Wed Feb 25 06:00:03 2009] [error]: Caught exception: mkdir /var/run/ 
rt38/mason_data/obj/3583890391: Permission denied at /usr/local/lib/ 
perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/HTML/Mason/Compiler/ToObject.pm line 107 (/usr/ 
local/sbin/rt-email-dashboards:119)

The problem was that the user I was running the dashboard under has no  
ability to write to this directory.   The directory is created as  
www:www 640.

I know you guys just LOVE to run things as root, but I really prefer  
to run with the most limited rights.   And I hate running these  
scripts as the web server too, but that's all that seems to work given  
the rights structure.  When I have time I'll be proposing some  
alternatives to limit the necessary rights for RT ;-)

dashboards mailer shouldn't use object files at all, it can be fixed.

Yeah, that's true that mason tries to parse things even when there is
autohandler in the same or above dir. This happens as a comp may
define autohandler or drop all of them.

However, I do recall we did something about that in custom handler.

Just for your information, the email-dashboard script needs access to
run Mason components to be able to generate the dashboards. The script
renders the "show dashboard" page and emails that to users.

The "show dashboard" page, originally "preview dashboard", was actually
created only to render a dashboard for email, but then we realized that
it was pretty handy on its own.

Well, I've learned something new, and I guess I'm not the only one :D

Well done Rob Munsch, now the example is clear: could be nice to have it
reported in RT_SiteConfig too.

Exactly, my idea was to track down which are the most used external
plugins so they can be reviewed and later integrated.

Could also be useful since sometimes you discover something nice you've
never thought about.

Subject: [rt-users] Approval RT 3.8.2 system approver not specified
Message-ID: <891469DFBBD7364EB24DEEB101767D861A9818@nlutxch101.corporate.ingrammicro.com>

I'm currently testing the approval system in RT 3.8.2

 

In the Gerneral queue I've created a template that creates a ticket of
type approval in the ___approval queue. This is working properly and I
can see the ticket in the approval list and can approve/reject it. When
I approve the approval ticket it is resolved and the other ticket is
updated with the information that the ticket is approved. However the
owner in the approval ticket remains nobody and the template inserting
the correspondence is also saying that Nobody has approved the ticket
(what looks silly in my opinion).

 

The template that is being used for inserting the correspondence should
be:

-------

Subject: Ticket Approved: {$Ticket->Subject}

 

Greetings,

 

Your ticket has been approved by { eval { $Approval->OwnerObj->Name } }.

Its Owner may now start to act on it.

 

Approver's notes: { $Notes }

-------

 

I have a global scrip that set the owner when a ticket is resolved that
currently unowned. This scrip however is running after inserting the
above template correspondence (I also disabled it to test the current
default approval behaviour). Is this a forgotten step in the approval
system, not setting the owner for the approval ticket? Is it also not
better to grab the actor's name doing the approval instead of depending
on the actual owner of the approval ticket?

 

Can someone verify this behaviour? I could be missing a step or doing
something wrong.

 

Thank you,

 

Ton

I disabled the new brand, using just the old brand (but with the script
changes we made) and it's still using the settings for the new brand.

Something about environment variable we are setting is constantly getting
set to the new brand, no matter which brand you try to use.

I've had our local perl guru double check my changes and I've set them
according to your notes.  I believe that either there is one crucial step
that we've overlooked, or that there is something particular about my
httpd.conf that's not working right (PerlSetVar statements, etc).

Just as a test yesterday, I separated the log files for each name based
virtual server to make sure that we were being served from the right server
instance, and depending on which URL I used, the correct log file was
showing activity.

I made a mistake....

If I comment out the new instance...restart http and try to access the old
instance by url, the old instance is shown.

So to answer your question, if I comment out brandy, brandx is displayed
properly.

Should the /temp/foo file add a line each time I request a page from the
ticket system?

I seems that it only gets new lines added when I restart apache.

I found one of the problems. The RT README says to configure mod_perl with this:

    
        SetHandler default
    
    
        SetHandler perl-script
        PerlResponseHandler RT::Mason
    

which didn't work for me. When I changed the order to this it started working:

    
        SetHandler perl-script
        PerlResponseHandler RT::Mason
    
    
        SetHandler default

Subject: [rt-users] 3.8.2 Query Builder firefox/linux cosmetic issue
Message-ID: 


The query builder in version 3.8.2 is somewhat awkward under Linux.  Under 
KDE4 on Suse 11.1, there is a seperator in the "less than," "matches," 
"is," etc fields that overlaps the text, making the S in "is" and 
"matches" look like a dollar sign.  Here's a screenshot:
http://zoo.cs.yale.edu/jim/querybuilder.png

I also tried it out on firefox under icewm on gentoo.  The seperator is 
not overlapping the text in that case, but it is still uncomfortably close 
to the text:
http://zoo.cs.yale.edu/jim/querybuilder2.jpg

How do I widen the drop down box so that the seperator doesn't overlap the 
text?

Hi,

The code at http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/ShowStatusInColor doesn't work for me.  Possibly because the directories are confusingly 
discussed.  I've got 3 files:

# /opt/rt3/local/html/Callbacks/MyCallbacks/Elements/RT__Ticket/Columnmap/Columnmap
<%INIT>

sub statusInColor {
   my $Ticket = shift;
   my $status = $Ticket->Status;
   my $css = "status" . lc $status;
   my $LastUpdater = $Ticket->LastUpdatedByObj->EmailAddress;
   my $TicketRequestors = $Ticket->Requestors->MemberEmailAddressesAsString;
   my $TicketCC = $Ticket->Cc->MemberEmailAddressesAsString;

   if (($TicketRequestors =~ $LastUpdater) || ($TicketCC =~ $LastUpdater))
   {
       $css = "status" . lc "reply";
       $status = "
$status REP
";
   }
   else {
       $status = "
$status
";
   }

   return \"$status";
}


$COLUMN_MAP->{Status}->{value} = \&statusInColor;


<%ARGS>
$COLUMN_MAP => undef


# /opt/rt3/local/html/NoAuth/css/web2/End
@import "statuscolor.css";

# /opt/rt3/local/html/NoAuth/css/web2/statuscolor.css
/* Status Colours */

.statusnew {

color: #bb0000;
text-align: left;
font-weight: bold;

}

.statusopen {

color: #0000bb;
text-align: left;
font-weight: bold;

}

.statusreply {

color: #00bb00;
text-align: left;
font-weight: bold;

}

.statusresolved {

color: #888888;
text-align: left;
font-weight: bold;

}

.statusrejected {

color: #884444;
text-align: left;
font-weight: bold;

}

If I clean out my mason cache and restart my server, I still don't see the css status values being picked up.  Any hints as to where I might 
be going astray here, anyone?

Message-ID: <49A57122.8050806@library.wisc.edu>

Hi all,
    Every time one of our users add a ticket that is linked to an asset, 
from the asset view, a ticket gets created but the content is only the 
first word of the body that is broken up to the first letter, then a 
blank space, then the rest of the word with nothing else.  It is nice 
that the ticket gets created with the correct subject but the content is 
not so hot.  Can anyone point me in a direction to troubleshoot this?

Thanks,

Pete

You say your file is:

Columnmap

That's wrong. Columnmap should me ColumnMap in both instances.

Message-ID: <3CE7D8D453B27148BBCA0B2063B11E64D600E2@s-wor-e-001.SCOUTSOFFICE.local>

Hi,

          I'm trying to track down a bug I am experiencing with RT, its
WYSIWYG editor, IE7 and RTx-EmailCompletion.

 

On my install when RT inserts content automatically into the body of the
WYSIWYG editor.

 

I only get this error when using Internet Explorer 7 (Haven't tried
other IE versions). Firefox doesn't suffer.

 

If I insert and RTFM article, my user signature (set under users
preferences), or hit reply/comment on a ticket transaction it posts the
info correct into the WYSIWYG editor window. When submitting that page
the transaction content randomly inserts spaces, line breaks, and chops
off the end of the content.

 

If I disable RTx-EmailCompletion it works fine.

 

I also have a JavaScript error in IE7 when RTx-EmailCompletion is
enabled;
Line: 2
Char: 1

Error: Syntax error
Code: 0

 

This error shows on every page. Looks like it's a problem with
RTx-EmailCompletion. It doesn't give a JS error in Firefox.

 

Has anyone else had this problem or been able to fix it?

Message-ID: 

Hello,

 Since my migration from 3.6.6 to 3.8.2, I get this message for
requests from new users :

RT could not load a valid user, and RT's configuration does not allow
for the creation of a new user for this email (xxxx.xxxx at xxx.com).

You might need to grant 'Everyone' the right 'CreateTicket' for the
queue incoming.


And of course, I have this right on the "incoming" queue. How can I fix this ?

Thanks!

Beuller?

Let's make the question more specific.  How can I ask if the replier  
is a privileged user, so that I can &&  ! (whatever) to prevent this?

Hmmm... odd that I dont get the error when I remove RTx-EmailCompletion, but you're not using it. What other extensions are you using? Do you still get this problem if they are disabled?

Mine is getting truncated at 319 characters on every one. I never noticed it before.

Looks like my JavaScript error is unrelated. Its a RTx-EmailCompletion specific error that, so nothing to do with the truncation.

Subject: [rt-users] Trying to track a bug with WYSIWYG editor,IE7 and RTx-EmailCompletion

Hi,
????????? I'm trying to track down a bug I am experiencing with RT, its WYSIWYG editor, IE7 and RTx-EmailCompletion.

On my install when RT inserts content automatically into the body of the WYSIWYG editor.

I only get this error when using Internet Explorer 7 (Haven't tried other IE versions). Firefox doesn't suffer.

If I insert and RTFM article, my user signature (set under users preferences), or hit reply/comment on a ticket transaction it posts the info correct into the WYSIWYG editor window. When submitting that page the transaction content randomly inserts spaces, line breaks, and chops off the end of the content.

If I disable RTx-EmailCompletion it works fine.

I also have a JavaScript error in IE7 when RTx-EmailCompletion is enabled;
Line: 2
Char: 1
Error: Syntax error
Code: 0

This error shows on every page. Looks like it's a problem with RTx-EmailCompletion. It doesn't give a JS error in Firefox.

Has anyone else had this problem or been able to fix it?

For what it's worth, an end-user of mine noticed the same thing today...
He's also using IE 7.

Alex,

I've observed the same kind of behavior when I use the "New ticket in"
button at the top, but not when I enter a comment or reply.  Additionally,
my text is truncated at 55 characters.  I'm having this issue in IE7, but
not Firefox 3.  I don't get JavaScript errors in either browser.

That's a CSS change in share/html/NoAuth/web2/ticket-search.html

Do be aware that this stuff is VERY fiddly and Linux GTK themes appear
to do a number on the buttons on top of everything else.

Message-ID: <0111C34BD897FD41841D60396F2AD3D3017D40A0CC@IMCMBX2.MITRE.ORG>

I am a novice who has easily created customized fields (RT is Great for that) but now want to change the look and feel to allow the fields to display nicely in a browser.

Can the fields look and feel as displayed in the browser be altered (see how much I am a novice!)??
Not looking to major radical changes, just some simple sizing to allow text in the field to display completely.

Any pointers learning/understanding any other programming language I may need welcomed!

Own RT Essentials.

Running 3.6.7 on UNIX with Apache with limited admin support, so I must do!

Thanks in advance

Ken

Subject: [rt-users] Ticket taken twice
Message-ID: 


Hello,

I have RT-3.6.1, postgres backend, apache with mod_perl.

We just stumbled upon a funny situation. I'm hoping one of you is going
to be able to help me sort it out.

A few minutes ago, 2 helpdesk techs used the "take" button, at pretty
much the same time. Upon closer inspection, here are the interesting
bits:

The history, under "display", of that ticket shows the following output
in the history:
[create ticket bits here]
#    	Wed Feb 25 11:35:50 2009  	 Tom   - Taken

#   	Wed Feb 25 11:35:50 2009 	 Geoff - Taken 

I asked Geoff to give the ticket back to Tom. When Geoff tried to set
the owner to Tom, RT threw an error: "Could not change owner. Group
already has member". So it looks like "Owner" is a group that, for this
ticket, has 2 principals (which, I believe, it shouldn't have). We tried
to "steal" the ticket, give it to nobody, and everytime, we get an error
"Could not change owner. Group already has member".

So the question is: how do I go about making the ticket behave properly?
I suppose I need to go into the DB and fix it there. And I suppose some
code probably needs to be fixed so that race condition doesn't happen
(or is it fixed in newer versions?).

Thank you,
Jok

Message-ID: 

So we want to e-mail a copy of the web interface input to the  
requestors when (and only when) the ticket was created via the web ui.

I'm guessing I should have a Scrip with a test for ->IsInbound() to  
determine if we opened the ticket for them.

Any gotchas with this?  Anybody gone down this road before and had  
issues?

Message-ID: 


One more follow up -- turns out that the ERROR 1062 was due to a failed 
database dump and restore.  I needed to add "--set-charset=binary" to my 
mysqldump command line when dumping the old RT database, and just in case 
I added "set names 'binary'" to the top of the resulting dump before 
importing it.  After that the sql.queries generated by 
upgrade-mysql-schema.pl worked fine without modifying the queries.

Todd Chapman patched this issue in RT quite a while back. I don't
remember if it's in 3.6.7, but I believe it is. It's definitely fixed in
3.8.

We query the message attachment for a 'Received' header, and if it's  
present we assume an email message; if not we assume a web transaction:

     my $trans = $self->TransactionObj;

     # Get the message attachment
     my $msgattr = $trans->Message->First;

     if ( $msgattr and $msgattr->GetHeader('Received') ) {
	# This is an email transaction
     } else {
	# This is a web transaction
     }

You probably would add a piece that makes this happen only for a Create  
transaction...

So, I've been able to figure out now how to reconstruct the binary from the
"Content:" section in the REST response for
/REST/1.0/ticket//attachments/

First, you take the "Content:" part of the response only

perl: (content_string) = rest_response =~ /Content:\s+(.*)/m
ruby: content_string = rest_response.match(/Content:\s+(.*)/m)[1]

Ignore the content-transfer-encoding header; the content is _not_ base64
encoded, even if the header says it is. In the string, do a search & replace:

perl: content_string =~ s/\n\s{9}/\n/
ruby: content_string.gsub!(/\n\s{9}/,"\n")

Next, you have to chomp off the 3 carriage returns at the end of
content_string.  Lastly, do a character set conversion.  This string is in
UTF-8 (probably only since RT 3.8, older RT it will be something else);
converting it to ISO-8859-1 gets the binary back intact.  The converted
string length should equal the content-length from the REST response as a
sanity check.

Note: I have only done this with one attachment so far, which came from a
U.S. Windows system.  Whether or not the target charset of ISO-8859-1 really
ought to be Windows-1252, or whether it ought to be whatever the original
charset was when it was uploaded (which doesn't appear to be coming back
with the REST response... oh dear) are unknown to me as of yet.  I don't
have Macs to upload binaries with, or foreign localized Windows, or anything
else for that matter so I'm not sure if "always to ISO-8859-1" will work
everywhere.  Would be nice to get some developer input on that...?

I used the iconv library to do the character set conversion.

ruby: binary = Iconv.conv("ISO-8859-1","UTF-8",content_string)

Subject: [rt-users] RT Training Announcement - April 27 & 28 2009 - Boston MA
Message-ID: 

Best Practical Solutions provides unparalleled instruction in how to  
get the most out of RT. We've been teaching users and administrators  
how to get the most out of RT since 2001. Since 2003, we've offered  
intensive one-day RT administrator training sessions to the general  
public.

In response to your requests, we've extended our RT training program  
to cover additional material targeted at beginning to advanced RT  
users.  We've split training across two days.  The first day starts  
off with a tour of RT's web interface and continues with a detailed  
exploration and explanation of RT's functionality, workflows and  
configurability. We'll touch on basic administration, but concentrate  
largely on helping you and your team get the most out of your RT  
instance.

The second day of training picks up with basic RT administration and  
covers everything from point-and-click configuration to installation  
of RT, development best practices and database tuning.

It goes without saying that you'll get the most out of training if you  
attend both days of the course, but we've designed the material so  
that you can step out after the first day with a dramatically improved  
understanding of how to use RT or show up on the second day and get  
quickly up to speed on how to make RT do your bidding.

A spot at either day costs $995 USD. You can save 25% if you attend  
both days of training. That's just $1495.

If you reserve your seat before March 15th, you can save an additional  
20% by mentioning the discount code ANNOUNCE09.

Each class includes breakfast, coffee/tea, and an afternoon snack, as  
well as all training materials.

Day 1 - RT User Training - April 27th 2008

Day 2 - RT Administration and Development ? April 28th 2008
  This intensive day-long session aimed at RT administrators and  
developers covers everything from installation to backups, interface  
and backend customizations. You'll learn how to customize RT to meet  
your organization's unique needs and how to make sure that RT stays  
fast, reliable and flexible.

This session will cover:

     * New features in RT 3.8 RT's system architecture
     * A guided tour of the RT source code
     * Extension mechanisms you can use to customize RT
     * RT Installation, including the basics of Tarballs, and  
Configuration

     * How to tie RT into your existing authentication infrastructure
     * Building your own tools that talk to the RT backend
     * Customizing RT's workflow to match your own
     * Automating common procedures
     * How to write custom reports based on RT's data
     * Custom coding, modifications, and callback creation
     * A brief preview of RT4
     * General Q&A Session

This spring, these sessions will be only be offered in Boston, MA. If  
you can't make it to Boston this April, please drop us a line to  
request a public training in your area. We haven't yet scheduled  
training for Summer/Fall 2009 yet ? your feedback will help us decide

Subject: [rt-users] Procmail email filtering
Message-ID: <49A5CF58.1060407@uwm.edu>

Hello, I had a few questions about procmail. I am not very good with
procmail and I am trying to use my gmail account to allow me to automate
incoming email based on its subject line. I have found some very useful
recipes, although I have not found a good tutorial on how to set up my
gmail account. I would also like to use imap, so  I don't lose my other
important emails. If this is not the right program, any other
suggestions would also be appreciated. I also tried fetchmail and was
successful, although there was absolutely no email filtering which is my
main concern. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

That was about 4 years ago! I think it was fixed in 3.6.2. It felt
good to find and fix that race condition. :)

Message-ID: 

Yes I still have this queue. Maybe is it related to LDAP
authentication ? I enabled LDAP in 3.8.2 with
RT-Authen-ExternalAuth-0.08_01 plugin.

Regarding mailgate, it's a simple usage : I get emails from a mailbox
with pop and pass them through mailgate. Then it creates a ticket in
"incoming" queue.

Hi

i did a new install onto 3.8.2
I'm pretty sure i had this problem when my LDAP access user had not been 
given the correct rights etc.

Are the users getting the bouncebacks on an LDAP system? if not you'll 
need to set the value below to 1. (you'll find this in your 
RT_SiteConfig.pm)


# If this is set to 1, then users should be autocreated by RT
# as internal users if they fail to authenticate from an
# external service.
Set($AutoCreateNonExternalUsers,    0);


Calvin

Subject: [rt-users] A little Scrip help
Message-ID: 

Hi,

I have implemented a scrip to notify the owner in the event someone else
merges data into one of their tickets.  All works well but alas it actually
sends the notification twice.  There is probably a real simple answer but it
is baffling me.  Have just ignored it the last few months but now I am a
little beyond that.
The scrip used is noted below;

my $txn = $self->TransactionObj;
return undef unless $txn->Type =~ /^AddLink$/i;
return undef unless $txn->Field =~ /^MergedInto$/i;
return 1;

Any assistance in stopping this will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Alex,

Having fixed the beginners mistake, (whoops :-] and thanks), I still have no joy.  I must be doing something really daft.  Perhaps I should 
show the directory structure  I have, and why (I find) the instructions are confusing.  Because the instructions refer to the 'directory 
just created', I have placed the statuscolor.css file in both the web2/ and the main.css/ directories, both under the 
html/Callbacks/MyCallbacks tree and under the html/NoAuth tree, too (one of these is clearly wrong).  Please re-read the instructions to see 
how this can be misinterpreted - I've appended these below for reference.  No doubt I'm reading this badly, but the end result is that this 
leaves me with the following structure:

/opt/rt3/local/html # tree  Callbacks/ NoAuth/
Callbacks/
`-- MyCallbacks
    |-- Elements
    |   `-- RT__Ticket
    |       `-- ColumnMap
    |           `-- ColumnMap
    `-- NoAuth
        `-- css
            `-- web2
                |-- main.css
                |   |-- End
                |   `-- statuscolor.css
                `-- statuscolor.css
NoAuth/
`-- css
    `-- web2
        |-- main.css
        |   |-- End
        |   `-- statuscolor.css
        `-- statuscolor.css

Yes, I'm using the web2 theme and I've cleaned out the mason templates and restarted apache2, too, to no effect.

    * Create the directory: /local/html/Callbacks//NoAuth/css/web2/main.css
    * Create the file: /local/html/Callbacks//NoAuth/css/web2/main.css/End 

And in that file, put:

@import "statuscolor.css";

    * In the directory just created '/local/html/NoAuth/css/web2' you will need to create a new file.

Hi Alex,

Having fixed the beginners mistake, (whoops :-] and thanks), I still
have no joy.  I must be doing something really daft.  Perhaps I should 
show the directory structure  I have, and why (I find) the instructions
are confusing.  Because the instructions refer to the 'directory 
just created', I have placed the statuscolor.css file in both the web2/
and the main.css/ directories, both under the 
html/Callbacks/MyCallbacks tree and under the html/NoAuth tree, too (one
of these is clearly wrong).  Please re-read the instructions to see 
how this can be misinterpreted - I've appended these below for
reference.  No doubt I'm reading this badly, but the end result is that
this 
leaves me with the following structure:

/opt/rt3/local/html # tree  Callbacks/ NoAuth/
Callbacks/
`-- MyCallbacks
    |-- Elements
    |   `-- RT__Ticket
    |       `-- ColumnMap
    |           `-- ColumnMap
    `-- NoAuth
        `-- css
            `-- web2
                |-- main.css
                |   |-- End

        |-- main.css
        |   |-- End
        |   `-- statuscolor.css
        `-- statuscolor.css

Yes, I'm using the web2 theme and I've cleaned out the mason templates
and restarted apache2, too, to no effect.

I have attached the exact files I am using for you to try.

If you have cleared the mason cache and restarted Apache i dont know
what else to suggest. I have noticed that RT doesnt reload .css files
unless its had an apache restart, rather than reload. Also make sure you
clear your browser cache.

Subject: [rt-users] Problems with creating ticket linked from an asset in
	version 3.8.2
Message-ID: <49A6A966.7090501@library.wisc.edu>

Hi all,
   Every time one of our users add a ticket that is linked to an asset, 
from the asset view, a ticket gets created but the content is only the 
first word of the body that is broken up to the first letter, then a 
blank space, then the rest of the word with nothing else.  It is nice 
that the ticket gets created with the correct subject but the content is 
not so hot.  Can anyone point me in a direction to troubleshoot this?

Thanks,

Pete

Subject: [rt-users] Don't close the ticket if a custom field is empty
Message-ID: 

Hi everyone,

I'm new on scrips writing.
I'm looking for a way to send a notification to the owner of a ticket if he
forgot to fill a specific custom field.
I'd like to keep the ticket opened as long as there is no value to this
custom field.

I can detect if the custom field is empty or not.
--------------------------------------
if (
($self->TransactionObj->Type eq "Status" &&
    $self->TransactionObj->NewValue eq "resolved") &&
    !$self->TicketObj->FirstCustomFieldValue('My custom field') ) {
    return 1;
}
return 0;
--------------------------------------

I can easily re-open a ticket if this condition is true. I can also send a
mail to the owner with the Notify module. But I'm not able to find a simple
way to do both of this actions.

Do someone have an idea?
Thank you.
Michel

Hi Alex,

Thanks very much for those - they were not so very different from what I 
started with (apart from the dupes ;)  I may go in and clarify the 
instructions on the wiki with my misunderstandings in mind.

I did all that previously, nothing worked.  Finally I was able to reinstall RT 
and start from scratch, which is clearly not an ideal solution, but your 
files then worked like a dream.  Unfortunately I'm still unsure what the 
actual reason for this non-functionality was but am somewhat suspicious of 
having added a new status (pending) via RT_SiteConfig.pm.  Perhaps this 
shouldn't have had any effect, but I'm not convinced as the approvals also 
appear to be behaving somewhat better now (see other thread...)

Cheers.

Hi,

    I followed these http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/ChangeLogo

a view source I see the code for the logo but nothing is displayed on 
the page.  I also found this 
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/78249?do=post_view_threaded 
which looks like the same issue I'm having.  Any and all help is greatly 
appreciated.

Hi Chia-liang,

This looks good, although it doesn't appear to work smoothly yet.

1. In your pod you have:

	% bin/rt?workflow PO PO?Approval ??create

Which should probably read:

	% bin/rt?workflow --create PO PO?Approval

2. When I had set up the workflow within my RT_SiteConfig.pm, and run the 
bin/rt-workflow script to create the scrips and templates, I naturally 
created a ticket.  Nothing happened, but I noticed in the logs there was the 
following entry:

	Found 0 scrips for TransactionBatch stage with applicable type(s)

So, I changed went into:

	Configuration -> Queues -> crs -> Scrips

and changed "Stage" from "Transaction Create" to "Transaction Batch".

3. The next time I created a ticket, the workflow/approval mechanism kicked in 
and the log files filled up, but no approvals were created - because of a 
stray character:

ENDOFCONTENT (/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Action/CreateTickets.pm:669)

I'm not sure which bit of which Template, or code, might be causing this

Hi Chia-liang,

This looks good, although it doesn't appear to work smoothly yet.

1. In your pod you have:

	% bin/rt?workflow PO PO?Approval ??create

Which should probably read:

	% bin/rt?workflow --create PO PO?Approval

2. When I had set up the workflow within my RT_SiteConfig.pm, and run the 
bin/rt-workflow script to create the scrips and templates, I naturally 
created a ticket.  Nothing happened, but I noticed in the logs there was the 
following entry:

	Found 0 scrips for TransactionBatch stage with applicable type(s)

So, I changed went into:

	Configuration -> Queues -> crs -> Scrips

and changed "Stage" from "Transaction Create" to "Transaction Batch".

3. The next time I created a ticket, the workflow/approval mechanism kicked in 
and the log files filled up, but no approvals were created - because of a 
stray character:

ENDOFCONTENT (/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Action/CreateTickets.pm:669)

Also when I navigate directly to the image I get:

The image ?http://servername/rt/NoAuth/images/logo.gif? cannot be 
displayed, because it contains errors.

However if I open up Firefox on that machine and then open up that image 
file it opens fine.

Any ideas?

I created local EditCustomFields  in /opt/rt3/local/html/Elements/ which changed
the $Rows & $Columns values to 5 and 75, respectively. 

Now the boxes are large enough that my users aren't complaining.  :)

Is there a way to specific a relative date in a search so that when saved it
will calculate off the current date? For example tickets from the past two
weeks but without having to adjust the date in the search?

Hi Stephen. I use some dashboard searches that work like this. I  
usually calculate my searches from the ticket's due date, but you  
could use the "started" date or "created" or any other date you wanted.

To see things that are due today and were due any time in the past, I  
use the following string in my search after setting other criteria:

AND ( Due = 'today' OR Due < 'today')

I also have another search that shows me things that aren't due yet:

AND Due > 'today'

If you are looking for more relative dates, I played around with this  
format for a few minutes and it seemed to work:

AND (  Due < 'today' AND Due > 'last week' )

Let me know if it works for you.

It looks like you can get it down to 1 week in either direction, but I  
don't know how it would be adapted to show something like "two weeks  
ago" or "the week before last week," though. I tried putting those  
phrases in the strings and the query didn't return what I wanted.

Use numerals instead of words for numbers.

% perl -MTime::ParseDate -le 'print for scalar localtime, scalar localtime Time::ParseDate::parsedate("2 weeks ago")'

Hi Stephen. I think I've got it.

You can use + and - signs in front to increment the numbers of weeks,  
months, etc.

So, if you want to see all tickets due in the past 2 weeks before  
today, you'd add this to your search:

(  Due < 'today' AND Due > '-2 week' )

If you wanted to see all the tickets due today and coming up for the  
next 2 weeks, you could try:
(  Due = 'today' AND Due > '+2 week' )

And so on and so forth.

Oh, wait a minute, there's more.

The CSS for the web2 style prevents the logo image being displayed.  As a
quick way of telling that the modifications you made so far are correct, try
setting your preferences to use one of the other styles. The logo should
appear. 

To make the logo appear under the default web2 style, as well as changing the
background to match the colour scheme of our company logo I created a local
copy of layout.css with the following changes:

% diff -u /usr/local/share/rt38/html/NoAuth/css/web2/layout.css  /usr/local/www/rt38/NoAuth/css/web2/layout.css

(Note the file names are from the FreeBSD layout for rt-3.8.x -- on most systems
the original file would be in ${RTHOME}/html/NoAuth/css/web2/layout.css and the modified copy should go into ${RTHOME}/local/NoAuth/css/web2/layout.css)

This displays the logo in the bottom left of the browser window -- it's fixed relative
to the window rather than scrolling with the page content.  I also cooked up a modified
background-gradient.png in gimp -- just changing the colours -- which I installed into
/usr/local/www/rt38/NoAuth/css/web2/images/source/background-gradient.png.  In order
to get it to display I had to copy /usr/local/share/rt38/html/NoAuth/css/web2/images/dhandler to /usr/local/www/rt38/NoAuth/css/web2/images/dhandler

Et voil?.

	Cheers,

	Matthew

Did you copy and paste from perldoc?

If so, you're running into nroff/man being "too smart".

Hi Chia-liang et al,

It transpires the approval ticket is actually created, although I am unable to 
see it unless I look up the id directly, even though my user currently has 
every right imaginable.  Further, when I reject the (hidden) approval, this 
appears to be succesful.  However, when I resolve the (still hidden) 
approval, I see the following error:

Approval tickets are of type "approval" - They're supposed to be hidden
from the normal UI and visible only under the "Approvals" tab.

I'm going to defer to CL on this one.

Approval tickets are of type "approval" - They're supposed to be hidden
from the normal UI and visible only under the "Approvals" tab.

Hi Chia-liang et al,

It transpires the approval ticket is actually created, although I am unable to 
see it unless I look up the id directly, even though my user currently has 
every right imaginable.  Further, when I reject the (hidden) approval, this 
appears to be succesful.  However, when I resolve the (still hidden) 
approval, I see the following error:

I hear you, and guilty as charged.  Although the templates were auto-generated 
out of the 'perl -MCPAN' installed RTx::WorkflowBuilder itself, I recall 
cut'n'pasting just one small part of the subject line into the 
RT_SiteConfig.pm  Naturally, bin/rt-workflow took my consequently naff 
subject line and used it in the templates...

Good to know, thanks.  All the same, the golden rule is:

I hear you, I suspect it's a rights issue which I have yet to resolve.  The 
erroneous characters were I suspect responsible for a lot of hidden mischief, 
and have reinstalled from scratch and with a much cleaner environment things 
are looking a lot better, thanks.  If I actually get this up and running I

Will this cause issues with the upgrade process, if I update to 3.8.2 now?
(ie: will it just "recover" or will the DB choke on it)

I guess I could just shred that ticket... But history is important...

Aaron,


	You need to turn on TransactionBatch in your RT_SiteConfig.pm file in 
/RTHOME/etc directory. That should allow you to use that stage option.

Ryan,


	Are you talking about a specific User or a specific type of user, like 
AdminCc or Oqner, or even a User-defined group? The rights for Custom 
Fields are in two ares. First is the ability to just create one and 
define it in terms of what can be entered (ie. select on value and THOSE 
values allowed) and in that area you can also grant the right for a 
user-defined group to be able to just "SeeCustomField" and to 
"ModifyCustomField". The right to "ModifyCustomField" is talking about a 
user (member of a user-defined group) modifying the value in that CF ON 
A TICKET only. To get to that right, you navigate thus 
Configuration->Custom Fields then either select the CF you want to 
modify (in terms of definition, types of entry, remove/add values) or 
click "New Custom Field" and then go about defining what you want for 
that CF.
	The other area of CF rights is for how the CF relates to a Queue. This 
is where you "Apply" the CF to a specific Queue and then determine what 
rights a certain group has in terms of that CF. You can also do this for 
Users, but if you have a lot of users, this can extremely time-consuming 
when it comes to maintenance. You navigate to this the same way, except 
you use "Applies To" and then "Group Rights" to apply the CF to a 
Queue(s) and set the rights.
      In our installation, we do not let anyone mess with "GLobal" CF's 
except the RT Administrator. For CF's that are Queue-Specific, we let 
the Queue Manager (the ADminCc Watcher) have that right.
      I hope this has been a help.

Joachim,


	You could do this with SQL directly in the DataBase, but I would only 
do that if Shredder can't handle it. I'm afraid if you shred the ticket, 
it's gone and there won't be a ticket to own. That might make your Audit 
department a little testy about your ticket history. I have some SQL 
that would help you, but you have to know it invloves more than just the 
Ticket Table. There is the Group, Groupmember, ACL, etc. tables. There 
is very little data in RT that does OT relate to other tables. They ALL 
have to be insync.

It's been a while, but I _believe_ that if someone "steals" the ticket
from here, RT will self-correct.

I'm a little on the fence about this. I obviously want to "catch up" and
get up to 3.8.2 (whoohoo!) but I do need to sort out that ticket first
(at least it would make sense...) to make sure it's not going to croak
on the reload of the DB. I have looked at the nice relational drawing
from the RT-Essential book, and from that I know better than just going
into the DB like that and mess with the ticket... I can probably work it
out, but I'd love to be able to get to keep that ticket  (well, with the
fixed bits in it). Would you share that SQL bits? At least, it'll give
me a starting point...

Thanks,
Jok

Can you try this patch? It's conceptually right but off the cuff. It's against 3.8
but applies to recentish 3.6. It may need a tiny bit of massage to apply to 3.6.1

You'll need to stop and start apache after making the change.

Message-ID: <66876F31-1173-4DFD-B7B5-0DBE5EE10031@netconsonance.com>

I'd like all privileged users to be able to see the User list, to find  
other privileged users' contact information.

The only thing I've been able to find is ShowConfigTab, which allows  
them to see a lot of other things and even implies that they can  
change the other person's info -- they can't, it says permission  
denied, but they think they can.

All I really want is to show a list of privileged users, name, email,  
cell, work, home phone numbers....


...yes yes I know I should be reading the source by now and I promise  
I will as soon as the current projects calm down a bit ;-)

Don't apply this patch. It's making the RT test suite explode. I have no
idea _what_ it would do to your DB.

Joachim,


	I'll do that in a bit. However, I would try Jesse's patch first. You 
could ALSO write down all the info for the ticket and shred it and then 
re-create it properly. Let me know how it goes with Jesse's patch and 
such. In the meantime, I'll put together the SQL and instructions.

Doesn't the shredder make a SQL dump?  You could shred it, edit the SQL
dump, and then reload it to the db.  Just an idea.

Also note that Mr. Vincent said not to use the patch as its broken (in case
you missed that mail).

Tom,


	Yep. I got it after I wrote my last note. If what you say is true, then 
that dump would be an excellant way to determine what records need to be 
updated in the DataBase.

I _would_ like to caution people against editing raw SQL here. There's a
bunch of nuance to group members and cached group members that is _very_
easy to get wrong.  I expect to have a better patch (or discover that
the test suite failure was a red herring) within an hour or two.

As a completely unimportant note on formality: Mr Vincent is my
grandfather. I'm Jesse. ;) 

Best,
Jesse

Subject: [rt-users] 382 Shredder deleting tickets and attachments?
Message-ID: 

If I use the built-in shredder to delete a ticket from the MySQL database, should it delete any attachments that were associated with that ticket?  Or must I delete attachments separately?

Thank you,

I was also looking at using Crystal Reports with RT, is it any easier or are

It was a false alarm. The test suite is now happy. Give it a shot?

Yeah, Have double checked all of those scrips/templates again.  The only one
that nets an output matching that is the MergeNotifier Template.  Looking in
the RT interface for the ticket it shows that the same email sent twice one
second apart.

I even disabled a whole bunch of other scrips which may have sent a
duplicate message but still to no avail. This just shouldn't be happening
from what I can tell.

Aaron,


	Are the persons getting the Email in more than 1 role? FOr example; If 
I am the Requestor & the Owner and someone merges a ticket into mine am 
I getting 1 email as requestor and 1 as owner? Just a thought.

Message-ID: 

 I thought of this scenario already,  but I created the ticket from another
external email address which is separate from my work one which RT Responds
to. I am the owner of the ticket data is merged with and hence I get one
email but I have a feeling it may be emailing twice as there is two tickets
which become one and effectively I become the owner of both.

But it reports the ID# of the only remaining ticket in both emails.

Is this a single-stage or multi-stage approval?  and is the test t/ 
approval/basic.t passing for you?	

If you look at the (hidden) approval ticket by putting the ticket id

ticket or other approvals?

Is this a single-stage or multi-stage approval?  and is the test t/ 
approval/basic.t passing for you?	

If you look at the (hidden) approval ticket by putting the ticket id  
into Display.html, do you see DependedOnBy containing the actual  
ticket or other approvals?

Cheers,

I figured it out.  On FreeBSD timezone data is stored in /usr/share/ 
timezones and has some different names.  "US/Pacific" would actually  
be "America/Log_Angeles". This solved the problem.

Can we get RT to throw out a message if the timezone it's given proves  
not to resolve?

you should in fact set the owner of the approval ticket in your
template, so the owner is notified of the approval and can
perform the approval action.

I think the system is designed to have the owner of approval
predetermined.  if you want to allow a group of people to approve
the ticket, you can create multiple tickets in the CreateTicket
template for each of the potential approvers.

If I use the built-in shredder to delete a ticket from the MySQL database,
should it delete any attachments that were associated with that ticket?  Or must
I delete attachments separately?

Thank you,
PH

This case was a multi-stage approval, the single-stage passed just fine.  In 
fact one-, two-, and four-stage approvals were all fine too, it was just the 
three-stage approval which failed consistently in this manner.

Well, there are three approval tickets, so it's not so simple to explain...
What I did notice was that under the failing three-approval the "Refers to:" 
line appeared to have a missing checkbox, or an empty line, depending on what 
way you look at it.  I've attached a screenshot to show what I mean, maybe 
this helps?

ok, so at which stage of resolving causes the issue?

can you traverse the "depends on" link to see if it reaches to the one  
in question?

I want to define a search for all tickets that have this email-address

Any suggestions?

I am using pretty much the same as you, except I'm running IE7 on Vista.

Michael, do oyu still have this bug if you disable RTFM?

I can reproduce the error consistantly whenever I hit reply/comment to a specific transaction. Depending on which transaction I reply/comment on changes the site that the data is truncated. Doesnt matter how much more I type into the reply/comment, each transaction also truncated at the same bytes regardless.

The Javascript errors I had in IE had nothing to do with this bug. I fixed it my removing the references to scriptalicous.js and prototype.js in the modified header from the RTx-EmailCompletion header.

The only extension I have is RTFM. More specs:
RT-3.8.2
RTFM-2.4.1
MySQL 5.0.67 (external server)
IE 7.0.5730.11 on WinXP SP3
IE7 Add-ons don't apply, because I experienced the same issue in IE7 "safe mode" ('iexplore -extoff').

I'm baffled.

The tests in RTx::WorkflowBuilder actually contains a 3-stage  
approval.  can you try to modify the test's config to reproduce the  
problem?

Subject: [rt-users]  Error on including RTFM Article in Answer to Ticket
Message-ID: <22247095.post@talk.nabble.com>


Hi all,

am a newbie with RT and RTFM, but got it up and running for two days now. I
figured out a lot of things myself, and besides buying RT Essentials, which
will amazon will ship today, and checking out various options in RT, i got a
weird Errormessage, where neither Uncle Google finds anything nor Auntie
Searchbutton here in the list archives.

So, the error message is:

Can't call method "Id" on an undefined value at
/opt/rt3/local/plugins/RT-FM/lib/RT/URI/fsck_com_rtfm.pm line 133. 

What happened before:

I configured RTFM, created two classes and a bunch of topics, as well as a
wikitext entry user defined field, to be able to enter the long version of
the summary. Then i entered some articles to check out the article
integration in RT

I opened a new ticket and clicked on answer. Then i selected an Entry of
RTFM to be included in the answer. Which was shown in the text editor after
i made changes to another field and hit the Enterkey. I selected the entry
by popuplist, by entering the article number i got the same errormessage

Then i clicked on the "Update" Button and was presented with the error
message above.

I don't claim that my workflow is correct :-), but i was wondering about
this error message. Since no search yielded in any information i hope
someone here has an idea about this.

RT 3.8.2 (and RTFM 2.4.2 i think it is, latest version) is running on
Apache/2.2.3 (Debian) PHP/5.2.0-8+etch13 mod_ssl/2.2.3 OpenSSL/0.9.8c
mod_perl/2.0.2 Perl/v5.8.8 

My apache error.log says something like this:

 [warning]: Could not determine a URI scheme for IT/article/3
(/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/URI.pm:139)
(in fact i wanted to include article #3 in the email)

 Everything else is seems to run smooth enough, no hiccups whatsoever,
currently :-)

It might be a configuration issue, but i haven't any clue, where to check
this out.

So, if you got a chance to let me know, where i will have to dig deeper
into, i'd be glad. I wouldn't mind a pointer how to fix this either.

Thank you for your time.

Best

w_e

Message-ID: 

Hi,
When you merge two tickets , I think the condition you have defined is evaluating to a true condition for both the tickets individually.
When the action that is 'notify owner' takes place, in both cases the ticket that is retrieved by ID will be the same as the tickets are now merged(Merged tickets have same ID numbers,the one into which you merged a ticket into).

Anyways, try tweaking the condition a bit so that when two tickets are merged, the condition evaluates true only to one of them, preferably the one into which a ticket is merged.

Subject: [rt-users] 382 Shredder deleting tickets and attachments?
In-Reply-To: 
References: 
	
Message-ID: 

So should rt-shredder *NOT* be used?  Should the instructions in the wiki be used instead?

Separately, how do I delete Reminders?  After I deleted all tix (or so I thought), I still had a couple Reminders in the DB.  Should Reminders get deleted along w/Tix as well?

This thread has triggered my spider sense as something which came across

Message-ID: 

Further testing:
Logged into a different PC (Remote Desktop); logged into RT w/ IE7 --> same problem (55 chars, extra garbage).
Logged into RT as root w/ IE7 --> did NOT have the problem.
Fellow IT user (with same permissions as mine) is also not having this problem.
It looks like *I'm* the lucky one. :(

What could it be about *my* login in RT that's causing this issue???

Anyone have example code, or know where I can find any, for using rest to add/update/delete users, including their passwords.

Thanks,

It's just a form, with the id: field set to "user/" instead of
"ticket/", and use the "edit" REST method. To create a user, you'd
use the object id "user/new".   The rest of the form would be like:

id: user/new
Name: Some Name
EmailAddress: some at name.com
Organization: Some Corp
Password: blahblah
Comments: This is a comment.

and so on.

Hrm... I thought xml was standard when doing rest, is this not the case? Is there a method to get rt to handle xml for bother get/post ?

aHA!

I didn't get a chance to apply the patch, but we figured out a way to
keep the whole history. The only data that wasn't preserved was the
creation time, but the history is there and valid. That was enough for
us. We created a new ticket, and merged the "broken one" into it. That
transferred all the data (history, requestors, etc) to the new one, but
not the owner. So at this point, we are at a good spot (at least I
think).

I'll work next week on upgrading the setup to the latest and greatest! 
(and I'll report the success...)

Thanks,
Jok

Nope.  RT uses RFC822 formatted forms, not XML.  You can write a library
that transforms your XML into the forms and vice versa, if you want to code
to XML for some reason.

But if you are coding in perl, just use RT::Client::REST from CPAN.  If you
are coding in ruby, wait a week or two and I'll be open sourcing a gem.  If
you are coding in something else -- write your own. ;)

Subject: [rt-users] Button that Create an Approval Ticket
Message-ID: <49A860B9.1040008@osu.edu>

I'm  newbie at RT and could use some help. I have created a new install 
of RT 3.8.2 on linux using oracle and am in the process of configuring 
it. One of the queues I have created creates an approval ticket in 
another queue I have created for this. This all works fine.

Now I want to make a  button for tickets in a third queue that will 
create a child ticket in this same approvals queue. I was able to do 
this using the code found at 
http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/CreateChildTicket. This ticket is 
created there but it is an ordinary ticket not an approvals ticket. I 
have tried various ways to set the type of the ticket to 'approval' but 
the child tickets are always showing up in the normal list of tickets, 
not under the Approvals button on the home page as they normally do.

What do I need to do to make the child tickets become approval tickets?

Thanks,

Can we please get some example code for this up somewhere so those of us that have automated employee fulfillment workflows can integrate this fairly easily? At the moment, I've a JSP utility that is used to create new users, and I'd like pre-instantiate the RT user for them (While we do use the ExternalAuth LDAP integration, the user still needs to login once for IT to add them to the proper queue...)

Well, I can tell you off the top of my head that what you POST is XML, but
the contents of that XML are not what you would think.  You want one
parameter called "content" that contains the RFC822 formatted form as I
described, and that's all thats in the XML.  You can see a lot of the fields
you can set in the form by doing "/opt/rt/bin/rt edit -t user "

If you want actual code, that'll take longer and I don't have time today.
And any code I show you will be in ruby.

Ruby works for me, since I can translate that to Perl or Java fairly easily (learned ruby while surrounded by Pythonistas when I was working for Google....)

Subject: [rt-users] Requestors being sent comments when updated via email
Message-ID: <67B864FDA9789F4FA1A854AFD6A1F3C80CB80455C7@devo>

The problem I am having is that when someone sends a comment via email, the comment is being sent to the requestor.
I can see that the script 'on correspond notify requestors and CCs with global template correspondence' is causing this even though the comment is being sent to RT using the comment email address.  If this script is removed then replying to a ticket via the web interface doesn't work as the requestors email address is not used automatically.  CorrespondAddress  and CommentAddress  are both set in RT_SiteConfig.pm we are using version 3.8.2.

what is the  comment address set a queue level? is it the correct one?

secondly how do you filter incoming emails and forward to RT? I use procmail. I have two filters configured for each queue in .procmailrc .
So for one queue, I have :
1. If To is  call rt mailgate with the email and action as --correspond
2. If To is  call rt mailgate with the email and action as --comment

Check this filtering to see if an incoming email from comment address is addressed by your filtering application properly.
