Re: ITSM 7.1, Incident form, dialogs, and hidden menu bar menus

2009-07-30 Thread William Rentfrow
It's probably a "Run Process" that mimics the button being pushed.
Those are pretty common all through out the application.  You'll see it
with the field ID of the button in question in the workflow logs - so
just log it and search for that button field ID.

Subject: ITSM 7.1, Incident form, dialogs, and hidden menu bar menus

ITSM 7.1

I'm familiar with Users selecting a value from a menu bar menu on a
regular form, and having an A/L fire.  

How does an A/L fire when the menu bar menu is hidden, and the form is a
dialog?

Here's my scenario:  When a user selects an Incident template to create
an INC, the following A/L fires:

HPD:INC:SelectTemplate_110_SetDescription

It executes on Button/Menu Item 'z3Btn Select Template'.

'z3Btn Select Template' is not a button, but appears to be a menu bar
item.  It's associated with HPD:Helpdesk dialog views only (but dialog
windows have no menu bars).  

Additionally, 'z3Btn Select Template' is 'not in any view'.  The only
HPD:Helpdesk form views with menu bar menus have them hidden, but
enabled.

How does this A/L get fired?

Thanks,

Rick

Re: Disable Red "X"

2009-07-30 Thread Arner, Todd
You might want to consider having your workflow fire on windows close
rather than on a button click.  For instance clicking on the save button
could simply close the window and then on windows close fire the rest of
your workflow.  That way if they click the button it fires or if they
just close the window it will fire.

** --> 
Hi All,
 
Is there a way to disable the close window X in the upper right corner
of  a dialog?
 
Depending one of several sets of criteria, when a ticket is closed, a
dialog window opens asking a series of Yes/No questions before they can
save the ticket. Problem is the users are using the X in the upper right
hand corner to close the dialog window which breaks the workflow.
 
Because of the many criteria's used I really don't want to have to add a
field like "Questions Answered" since it might conflict with those users
who don't need to answer the questions.

 ** Yes, same errors when importing manually.  Fundamentally these are

Mid Tier 7.5 Installation....

2009-07-30 Thread Kemes, Lisa
I just upgraded our Mid Tier from 7.0.1 p5 to 7.5 p2 on our Windows 2003 Server 
(it's a Mid Tier server only, AR Server is not installed).

We used to have JRE 1.5.0_11 and JDK 1.5.0_11.  I installed JRE 1.6.0_14 and 
JDK6 and pointed the installation to these folders at installation.  After 
installing everything (and a reboot just for good measure), the configuration 
tool still shows that Java Version is 1.5.0_11.

Another thing is that we are at version Tomcat 5.5.17, I was hoping that the 
Mid Tier installation would upgrade this to 5.5.25.  (the config tool still 
shows 5.5.17)

Should I installed Tomcat 5.5.25 separately, and how can I "point" the mid tier 
to Java Version 6?

Since you mentioned the preference server, these are the first two
places I would look.

1) From User, check "tools\options\display" to be sure they have not
changed the font for a field or two.  (I have had users do this).

2) From the form AR System User Preference, check that the user does not
values on the display tab or if you are using values on this page, that
they have the same values as everyone else.  Twice, I have ended up with
values in those normally blank fields (blank for us, anyway).

I've also seen this issue caused by the user having their Windows DPI

>From the user's desktop, single-right-click on any blank spot.
Single-left-click on Properties
Single-left-click on Settings
Single-left-click on Advanced
Single-left-click on General tab
If the DPI Settings isn't "Normal Size (96 DPI)" change it to Normal
size.

You'll probably have to reboot.

Re: How to turn on SQL Logging during Installation - Urgent :)

2009-07-30 Thread William Rentfrow
Even if you could - it may not give you what you need.  The turn on/off
is actually in the ar.conf/ar.cfg file.
 
The format used is (if I remember correctly): Debug-mode: 1
 
However, the AR Server SQL log isn't really a "full" log of what is
going on.  You'd do better using the Oracle/Sql Server logs to determine
errors.

Does any one know how to turn on SQL logging DURING installation (we

trying to troubleshoot what the problem is, and we want to know what
happens in the DB because tables are not created during installation.

somewhere (ex. config file) so that SQL logging would be turned on
during installation? Thanks!

Remedy and DOD SSO

2009-07-30 Thread Abdullah Baytops
Our DOD client would like for us to implement SSO using a product called 
siteminder.  Has anyone ever integrated SSO with Remedy 7.1 for a DOD client 
using this product?

If anyone has ever did any kind of SSO integration that would be helpful as 
well.

Thanks in Advance for any Response
