 Scott, you don't tell us what version of RT you're working with...
 

Gah, I'm sorry... have had a few too many late nights.

I'm running 3.8.1.

[rt-users] Search order by custom field

2008-08-22 Thread scott smith
I'm having trouble saving a search ordered by custom field. I have to 
manually change the URL to fix the order, since the GET param is not set 
in a form field on the page. After I do that, I get sent to the advanced 
edit query page. I click Show Results and see the tickets in the 
correct order.

However, when I go back to Edit Search to save it, the order by field 
is reset to AdminCc.EmailAddress (presumably because it's the first in 
alphabetical order).

Is this not possible? I'm trying to save a search in a dashboard but it 
needs to be ordered by the custom field.

FWIW, I saved the html, put it in docroot/Search/Build2.html and 
modified the selected order by field. I was then able to save the search 
with the order I need.

 Hi,
  
 I added a new custom field named Severiy with Type Select one value 
 and Validatione = Mandatory.
 I want SelfService ticktes to be filled with the mandatory new custom 
 filed but it is not the case.
 New ticket could be open without providing a value for my new custom field.
  
 is there a way to force mandatory filed in ticket creation?

You have to give AssignCustomFields perms to the group for the 
queue(s) in which they create tickets. That should do it.

 Hi Scott,
 I installed graphviz...but now I don't know what to do :(.  I tried 
 searching the wiki and the archives but couldn't find anything on how to 
 configure.
  

You should be able to just do another `make install' and start using it, 
assuming you have fulfilled all dependencies (check again with `make 
testdeps')

 ok, I ran the testdeps, everything was found.  I then did a `make

Hmm, have you tried clearing the object cache and logging out  back in?

[rt-users] Queue renaming problem

2008-08-14 Thread scott smith
Hi, I created a queue and later renamed it before any tickets were 
created in it. Now when any tickets *are* created in it, the old queue 
name is displayed in the edit page. Displaying the ticket shows the 
correct queue name. Searches display the correct queue name. It seems to 
be only the edit page that has this problem.


Is this a known problem?

I've attached a screenshot of the search results displaying the correct 
queue name, and the edit page displaying the incorrect (old) queue name.


Thanks

 Scott,
 
 
 Queues are keyed by ID number, not name. The name field is merely a 
 reference or related field. When a ticket points to a queue, it points 
 to the id number and in your instance, that never changed. Searches, 

Yeah, I thought as much

 however, may have the selection criteria referring to a name and in that 
 instance, the search needs to be changed.. It is probably your cache 
 that needs to be refreshed. Hope this helps.

...which explains everything :)

Thanks

Re: [rt-users] Slightly OT: Perl Modules question

2008-07-28 Thread scott smith
John Arends wrote:
 There is one person here who feels very strongly about the RPM based 
 approach (not me) but I do agree that RT doesn't really get rebuilt very 
 often. Since we actually run it in a VM on top of ESX, I almost feel 
 like the kickstart isn't as necessary as I can make copies of the VM 
 files and feel reasonably comfortable that way. Kickstart is awful nice 
 when dealing with bare metal and being able to restore.
 
 However I have restored exactly...never. So I'm not sure which way to go.
 
 Here I am looking at going from 3.6.x to 3.8 and it basically involves 
 building a whole new machine. I can't imagine actually upgrading it in 
 place based on everything that has to be installed.

I initally set up our RT instance on a FreeBSD machine. It was pretty 
damn easy, took me like 10 minutes. Most of our production network is 
run on CentOS 5, however.

Late last year I set up a completely new kickstart environment which 
allowed us to fully automate 90-95% of the roll out process here. I was 
interested in setting up a new RT machine, as the one it's currently on 
is pretty old.

However, the sheer amount of work required to ensure the Perl module 
RPMs are of a sufficient version and stored in my local yum repo was 
enough that I spent multiple days downloading and building the RPMs. I 
later found cpan2rpm, which did help. Then I realized that the set it 
and forget it (thanks, Ronco) method I used was, in this single 
occasion, a much more efficient use of my resources to the company. 
We're not rolling out 20 new RT instances every week.

Since I set it up last September, I've upgraded RT three times on that 
machine and all it really required was ensuring my ports tree was up to 
date before trying to upgrade the Perl modules.
