RE: [rt-users] Modify without ModifyTicket?
Thanks Kenneth, I hadn't heard of RTx::RightsMatrix before, I'll give it a go. However, I don't have any (additional) rights for owners on that group or globally. In our system all Privileged users have ReplyTicket, everything else is on a Group basis. Hmmm maybe I added custom fields with global privileged modify access. Aha! (But the original problem was the "worked" field which seems like a loophole in RT, people with Comment rights can edit several fields on the Comment screen, including Worked) cheers, Christopher -Original Message- From: Kenneth Crocker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, December 07, 2007 4:52 AM To: Christopher Short Cc: rt-users@lists.bestpractical.com Subject: Re: [rt-users] Modify without ModifyTicket? Christopher, What rights have you given the role "owner" both globally and for that queue? CommentOnTicket allows modification ONLY to the comments part of a ticket, not the status or dates, etc. Do you have RightsMatrix? That will help a great deal in finding out "who" can do "what" and "where" and thru what rights. You could have inadvertently granted some rights thru "fall-thru" inclusion to rights for roles. Hope this helps.

[rt-users] Set ticket priority in self service portal?
Hi, I'm getting our shiny new rt3.6.5 install on fedora 8 ready to enter production for our internal ticket taking, but I have one last configuration issue before I'm truly happy with the configuration. I need to let end users set the priority of their tickets in the rt self service portal. Is this a feature in RT that I've overlooked? If not, any tips on how to hack it in?

[rt-users] Add GroupMembers as CC on create ( help required )
First off, my apologizes for posting to the dev list earlier in error... a true newbie I need some guidance.. I have tried numerous versions of scrips , approaches and examples that I have found thanks to this list, but I just can't get things to work as I expect/want. The below scrip ( found on the list...thank you ) , does work , but it requires that I have the hardcoded "Group_Here_Works" entry. Usin different group names does produce those members as CC's. What I really want to have happen is; the requestor's group/s members be automatically figured out and those members be added as CC's to the ticket on creation. but I can't seem to grasp how. I am struggling to get my head around all this, so any assistance is very welcomed. == my $ticket = $self->TicketObj; my $transaction = $self->TransactionObj; my $derivedGroupName = 'GROUPNAME_HERE_WORKS'; # instantiate a group object my $addGroupObj = RT::Group->new($RT::SystemUser); $addGroupObj->LoadUserDefinedGroup($derivedGroupName); return undef unless $addGroupObj; my $addGroupMembersObj = $addGroupObj->UserMembersObj; my $userObj; # walk through members of group to add; if a given member is not already on the ticket, add to the CC list while ($userObj = $addGroupMembersObj->Next) { if (($ticket->IsRequestor($userObj->PrincipalId)) or ($ticket->IsCc($userObj->PrincipalId))) { $RT::Logger->debug("On Create Add Group CC: '" . $userObj->Name .

It's almost certainly the case that you have multiple valid DNS domain names for your RT server. And RT's cookies are tied to a specific domain.

[rt-users] RT 3.6 requires two or three logins with firefox and IE
Bizarre problem I could not spot with Google which leads me to believe I'm doing something very wrong. I have perl-5.8.8, apache 2.6, mp 2.0.3 and RT 3.6.5 under Solaris 10 and Oracle 10. With firefox2 and IE, I am prompted to authenticate two or three times before I can navigate RT pages without prompting. However, with lynx and opera I only need to authenticate once.

Re: [rt-users] RT not generating email for CCs/AdminCCs
Matt, I think you're right about the understanding and the inconsistent procedures as a result. Let's see if I can help: For the "QUEUE" an AdminCc or CC watcher will be recipients of email notification IF there is a notification scrip where the action is "Notify AdminCc, CC's...) or even spererate "Notify AdminCc", "Notify CC" where the condition is whatever. When the condition is "On Correspondence" it means email sent to/from that queue/ticket. "On Comment" means when someone makes a comment on a ticket in said queue. "On Create" and the others are self explanatory. "Others" (as an action recipient) refers to a user that is added to the "cc" or "Admincc" people portion of an individual ticket. What this means is, when you set up the queue, the users you identify as the "Watchers" are ALWAYS going to get a notification on ANY ticket IF and ONLY IF there is a notification scrip that applies to the condition AND the action is to notify the watchers ("AdminCc" & "CC"). For any other person to get an email for said action, you need to have those users added to the appropriate "PEOPLE" section of the specific ticket AND have ANOTHER scrip for that condition with the action being "Notify Others ...". What we do is have our "AdminCc" watcher function as the administrator of the queue (be the person that monitors ticket activity/ownership/resolution/granting groups privileges to the queue) and set up notification scrips for when that person wants one, like "on create" and "on resolve". If they want to know every time someone makes a comment or sends an email to/about a ticket, then we set up a notification scrip for "On Correspond" or "On Comment", with the action set to "Notify AdminCc". Some Queue Admins don't want to be inundated with email. I would recommend sitting down with your people and discuss exactly how you want RT to be used and administrated and set up everything accordingly, as a whole and queue by queue. Watch out for setting up privileges redundantly. Hope this helps.

Matt, Navigate to Congifuration>Global>Scrips and tell me what scrips are listed. Then, navigate to Congifuration>Queues>(select the queue we are discussing)>Scrips and tell me what scrips are listed. That will give us a good start on finding out what is going on.

Re: [rt-users] Modify without ModifyTicket?
Christopher, What rights have you given the role "owner" both globally and for that queue? CommentOnTicket allows modification ONLY to the comments part of a ticket, not the status or dates, etc. Do you have RightsMatrix? That will help a great deal in finding out "who" can do "what" and "where" and thru what rights. You could have inadvertently granted some rights thru "fall-thru" inclusion to rights for roles. Hope this helps. Kenn LBNL On 12/5/2007 11:06 PM, Christopher Short wrote: Hi, I have users who can modify tickets in a queue that I didn't expect. All those users are are assigned to just one group with these permissions on the queue: CommentOnTicket OwnTicket SeeQueue ShowTicket ShowTicketComments The only other thing that applies to them is the Everybody group with ReplyTicket. Privileged has no added rights. Is ModifyTicket implied by OwnTicket? I've seen comments that imply that it isn't.

Re: [rt-users] Recurring signin with 3.6.4
Joop, Thanks. We are currently doing the same thing you are (storing session on disk), yet I am still getting the two-time loop for sign-ins. What did you do to resolve the cookie problem, if you had one? If you didn't have a cookie problem, then I still can't figure out what is causing the double sign-in. What were you're setup procedures/parameters for storing session data to file? It perplexes me. I was looking thru the archives and the causes seemed to be in two camps: 1) the DB camp - whereas an alter for the sessions table to CLOB/ORACLE or LONGBLOB/MySQL seemed to work and 2) the store to file camp - which listed various causes such as FireFox/cookies/expire date on cookies/clearing cookies and possibly binary data corruption. At this point, I feel the need to ask Jesse what your technical guys have found out about this problem in relation to ORACLE and/or FireFox? Did this happen for ORACLE users in 3.6.1 thru 3.6.3? If not, what does 3.6.4 do differently that may cause this? This is critical to our getting 3.6.4 into production. Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
