Very cool. It sounds like folks using file-locking are definitely
winning with this. I suspect it got skipped at the time sessions were
implemented because: (From the doc)

Considering that currently I'm the Apache::Session maintainer... :)

Apache::Session from 1.83 checks file lock failures, so I saw that
someone posted error logs here.

By default Apache::Session does read lock and escalates to write lock
when necessary. 'Transaction' does write lock at session start. This
has disadvantages, it will require other processes to wait before this
process will finish. Ideally, 'Transaction' should be only for
processes that will modify session data.

2008-01-03 Thread Patterson, Craig
As I'm about to apply this patch, I have one question.  Will the patch
be implemented in the next release of RT? I'm on 3.6.4 with no plans of
upgrading in the near future, so basically, what I'm asking is, should I
move the SetupSessionCookie file to my local directory, or just apply it
to the version in the shared folder?  I don't want to only apply it in
the shared folder, forget about it, only to have that issue come up the
next time I upgrade.

Thanks,

Craig

[rt-users] Accessing the original "To:" recipient field

2008-01-03 Thread Raphux

Hello list,

I'm trying to find how to retrieve -in a scrip- the original "To:" from 
a mail submitted ticket.


Details :
I have a single entry queue (called "support"), with multiple email aliases.
The main adress of that queue is [EMAIL PROTECTED]

In my postfix configuration, I created some aliases, like :
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ==> [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ==> [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Emails arrive correctly into the support queue, and in the first ticket 
history entry, I do have the "To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]", which is 
good for me.


I would like to access this information ([EMAIL PROTECTED] here) 
in a scrip, in order to correctly set a custom field.


It is maybe obvious, but I can't find how to do this.

Anyone?

You should definitely make a local copy and modify that. You'll still 
possibly have to re-apply the change when you upgrade, if it hasn't 
made it to the official release.

Ben,

it seems I can't pinpoint the problem at all. Just today the system sent
mail - initiated by the scrip that notifies the owner of a ticket of any
changes (meaning the RT-System CAN send mail). Still it fails to send
mail regarding correspondence or any CC types. The frustrating thing is
that the system tells me that mail will be sent to the listed recipients
- so it looks like the scrips are working as they should - it just
doesn't do it for whatever reason.

if RT had found a recipient. I'm sure he checked the "organization"

I agree. If RT could not access the DB, then a lot of

to playing with those technologies (UNIX, ORACLE, MySQL, etc.), but 
I have been in the business for a long time and my debugging skills

Somewhere in that process, the data is either getting lost or it 
becomes unrecognizable, ergo the error message you're getting. 
Sorry I can't be of more help. I am REALLY interested in what you

Kenn,

well ... I don't have much of a clue what to do next at all. I can try
and upgrade to the newest version and see if that makes things better in
any way. If that fails I could try tracing the error maybe I'll be able
to find whats wrong. If that doesn't get me anywhere either I guess I'll
clone the VE and raise a new instance of RT and switch that with the
broken one as soon as everything is configured as it should be.

I'll let you know in any case what I did as soon as that problem is
resolved.


The "No recipients found" message just means that the scrip decided 
that nobody should receive mail for this transaction - it doesn't 
mean that data is missing or corrupt. For example - if you have a 
scrip with action 'Notify AdminCcs' and there are no AdminCcs for 
the ticket or queue, you'll see this message in the log.


Steve



Steve,

as mentioned above, the system tells me that mail will be sent to
following addresses and it offers me an option to supress the sending
(lower part of the correspondence form). It just does not do anything
apart from recording a message to the RT-Log, like a comment with no
email sent - and I get the message in the systemlog that there are no
recipients found.

if your mailserver is postfix, you might need to add the hostname of the

[rt-users] obnoxious and likely ridiculous customer request

2008-01-03 Thread Mathew Snyder
One of our customers wants to have about 10 users be able to access our
self-service site for the sole purpose of viewing graphs of their ticket
activity.  They don't, however, want to allow them to to create tickets.  Is
this something that can be accomplished via rights?

I don't see it as possible since we don't have individual queues for each
customer but instead use a custom field to assign that value.  Although, it
could probably be accomplished through scrips.  Access to the graphs seem a bit
tougher.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

[rt-users] Default Ticket View

2008-01-03 Thread Steve Cochran


I'm new to RT, so sorry if this is simple, but I didn't see it  
addressed on the wiki or the archive.


We've just set up RT 3.6.3, and the default ticket view puts the  
actual request way down at the bottom of the page, off the screen. Is  
that normal? Do people usually adjust that? Seems to be that that  
would be the most common thing to read first.

[rt-users] Is there any disadvantage of "Precedence: bulk" in RT emails header

2008-01-03 Thread Asrai khn
Hi,

Recently we got into problem where spamcop blacklisted our RT mail server IP
(rt using another host for relay emails) then we start using the same host
MTA (postfix) where RT is installed.

Now yahoo is Rate limiting emails from our RT which causing delay in emails.

Now boss is asking to remove/patch RT to do not add "Precedence: bulk" to
header of emails, i wonders does it will do any good? coz as far i can
understand "precendence: bulk" is nice thing

"that some autoreply software uses that header to avoid sending
vacation/out-of-office messages to automated mailers.

Thankfully those some autorepliers should also be smart enough to not
send more than one such message to any specific address, which would
avoid nasty mail loops."


So what you guys thinks about removing the "Precedence: bulk" from RT email
header if yes then how to remove it?

Thanks.
Askar

Re: [rt-users] Default Ticket View

Clicking the carrot (or up arrow) to the left of Ticket Metadata might be
what you want.

Works in 3.6.5.

Found those, and it does seem to remember my preference between  
tickets, haven't tried logging out yet.


Changing the default would be nice, but think I'll probably just end  
up rearranging the ticket view anyway.

Re: [rt-users] RT 3.6 requires two or three logins with firefox and IE

2008-01-03 Thread Kenneth Crocker

Alexandr,


	Thanks a bunch. We tried and it worked, of course. I'm wondering if a 
warning should be included for those ORACLE users to be aware of the 
need to for the exclusive session locking. That would save someone a 
whole bunch of time. Why was this not a problem with our 3.4.4 version?

Sorry, nope. The long term fix is to replace Apache::Session with
something we have more control over.

Did you tried adding 'Transaction' argument when creating session?
Patch is attached.



Very cool. It sounds like folks using file-locking are definitely
winning with this. I suspect it got skipped at the time sessions were
implemented because: (From the doc)


   Note that the Transaction argument has no practical effect on the MySQL
   and Postgres implementations.  The MySQL implementation only supports
   exclusive locking, and the Postgres implementation uses the transaction
   features of that database.

[rt-users] MergeUsers Patch question

2008-01-03 Thread Sean McCreadie
I installed the MergeUsers Extension from Jesse and then I noticed the
patch that Dirk has put up on the mailing list.  I tried to run the
patch and it didn't work.  Im pretty new to this and have never tried to
use the patch command before.  My question is should I be copying the
Modify.html file from /share/html/Admin/Users to the local directory and
then running the patch on it?  Or does it run on the original file in
the share directory?  Thanks everyone in advance, im pretty confused on
this one.

[rt-users] SSL Error: RT+PostgreSQL

2008-01-03 Thread Emmanuel Nnko
Dear All,

I am installing RT-3.6.5 with PostgreSQL-8.1.10 (installed with
OpenSSL-0.9.8g -self signed certificate) as the database.

The installation before the 'make initialize-database' goes OK.

When I do 'make initialize-database' I get the following error:

---start-
[EMAIL PROTECTED] rt-3.6.5]# make initialize-database
/usr/bin/perl //usr/sbin/rt-setup-database --action init --dba root
--prompt-for-dba-password
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at
/usr/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm line 34.
In order to create or update your RT database,this script needs to connect
to your Pg instance on nms.tra.go.tz as root.
Please specify that user's database password below. If the user has no
database
password, just press return.

Password:
DBI 
connect('dbname=template1;host=nms.tra.go.tz;port=5432;requiressl=1','root',...)
failed: SSL error: tlsv1 alert unknown ca
 at //usr/sbin/rt-setup-database line 105
Failed to connect to
dbi:Pg:dbname=template1;host=nms.tra.go.tz;port=5432;requiressl=1
as root: SSL error: tlsv1 alert unknown ca
make: *** [initialize-database] Error 255
end-
I presume this is due to self-signed certificate used.

Please advice how I can use a self-signed certificate to proceed with the
installation.

Thanks for your corporation.

With kindest regards,

Emmanuel
