[rt-users] URL Error after upgrading to rt4

[Chris O'Kelly]

Hi Rolf,

It looks like you are missing the closing quotes on the line you inserted:

        I insert as line #2
        use lib "/opt/rt4/lib/RT;

should be

        use lib "/opt/rt4/lib/RT";

The error message eludes to this by:

        (Might be a runaway multi-line "" string starting on line 2)

Regards

Thanks, Kevin.   Not being a perl expert I need some assistance.
I managed to get my library path inserted but have one syntax to correct.
I insert as line #2
use lib "/opt/rt4/lib/RT;
I then deleted an empty line from the comment section so the code lines line
up with your example.

I am getting this back on the compile:
syntax error at ./fix-3.6-search-result-format-in-attribute.pl line 66,
near "&& $content->{Format} =~ s!(?<=href=")"
  (Might be a runaway multi-line "" string starting on line 2)
:66

My URL is generating (for example):
    http://v20labtrack/rt3/Ticket/xxxxxxxx
and I want it to be:
    http://v20labtrack/Ticket/xxxxxxxx

so I changed this line to rt3:
    my $path = shift @ARGV || 'rt3';

how do I need to change this one?
    && $content->{Format} =~ s!(?<=href=")/$path(?=/|$)!__WebPath__!ig )

thanks   Rolf
