The user I was trying things out with have *No rights granted* in all
Global Group Rights and Global User Rights. My RT installation is an almost
fresh install that contains no modifications of any kind except 1 thing: i
gave the system group Everyone the right to Comment, Create and Reply to
Tickets, and also SeeQueue for the queue General.

In short, what I observed is that being able to edit RT-at-a-glance is
something that comes default to all users even if they have zero rights
granted in almost all areas except queue specific rights.

I'm sending another email in this thread to explain better why I need to
restrict my users this right - hopefully that will make my dilemma much
clearer to you.


Thanks you very much for your reply.

Hello Kenneth,

On Thu, Apr 24, 2008 at 3:08 AM, Kenneth Crocker [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Not that I know of. I think the design concept was based on the
 usual situation of a user cannot do anything on the WebUI unless they are
 privileged, and if they are privileged, why keep them from customizing their
 own home page? What is it you do not want them to see? Maybe there is
 another way.



I sent another email in this thread a few minutes ago - I wrote there my
observation that even if a user is not granted any global group or user
rights, being able to edit RT-at-a-glance seems to be a default right that
can not be disabled without hacking RT.

So my need may be understood better - the reason I want to prevent my users
from modifying RT-at-a-glance is this:

If you have a lot of tickets under tickets you own - it would be very to
identify with one glance which among all the tickets you own was recently
updated by the requestor, meaning there's new data available on that ticket
that you might have not read yet. I know sending out an email to ticket
owner when a ticket is updated by requestor is a possible solution, but I
wanted to do everything inside RT - so this is not an option for me.

I am actually not the only one needing this kind of functionality, as I have
noticed the same thing was also asked for in the RT-Wishlist here:
http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/WishList

The request reads: It would also be nice to highlight tickets that you own
but were not the last person to make contact with it. It's an easy patch but
would be nice to see it main stream.


The easiest solution I found to this specific need is editing the tickets
you own part and then adding a column called LastUpdatedBy - so a quick
glance to the tickets you own will already tell you which are the tickets
where it was not you who last made contact but the customer.

I have also found that making the modified RT-at-a-glance with the
LastUpdatedBy column as the default for all users can be done by following
the instructions here:
http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/ChangeDefaultRTAtAGlance

The very last thing that I just need to do now and which I cant seem to
solve, is how to prevent my users from modifying RT-at-a-glance, so they
will only use the default (I also dont want to deal with complaints like
hey, how come the columns in my RT-at-a-glance is different from my
neighbor?).

Much thanks!

[rt-users] rt3 sais fastcgi not stared but it is

2008-04-24 Thread Christian Forjahn
Hi.

I installed rt 3.4.5 on a linux system (collax server). when I try to
access the site using fastcgi I get this message:
-snip-
You're almost there!

You haven't yet configured your webserver to run RT.

You appear to have installed RT's web interface correctly, but haven't
yet configured your web server to run the RT server which powers the
web interface.

The next step is to edit your webserver's configuration file to instruct
it to use RT's mod_perl , fastcgi or speedycgi handler.
-snap-

I allready configured the webserver using fastcgi. it is also loaded:


[Thu Apr 24 09:07:15 2008] [warn] FastCGI: server
/opt/collax_rt3/bin/mason_handler.fcgi started (pid 8859)

Does anybody know what this could be?

my apache/modules.d/http(s)/rt3:

Alias /rt3/NoAuth/images/ /opt/rt3/share/html/NoAuth/images/

Directory /opt/rt3
   Options ExecCGI FollowSymlinks MultiViews Indexes
   AllowOverride None
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all

any hints?

Since you're not using LDAP groups to determine access, remove the group

 Mike,
  
 Thanks very much for the response.
  
 However, just to shade some light:
  
 x1- During the initial installation of RT, the RT comes with 
 RT_Config.pm file that for all customization has to be reflected on 
 RT_SiteConfig.pm (let me call this file Old/Original) file.
  
 x2- In the file earlier submitted (RT_SiteConfig.pm, also attached) 
 contains the normal customization for local requirements.
  
 x3- Now, when I installed RT::Authen::ExternalAuth  
 RT::Authen::CookieAuth, they came with their RT_SiteConfig.pm file.
  
 x4- Now, the issue is how to integrate these two new RT_SiteConfig.pm 
 files with the Old/Original RT_SiteConfig.pm file.
  
 Please advise how to integrate them or if I need to do away with the 
 Old/Original RT_SiteConfig.pm.

You simply copy the contents of those files and paste them into your 
RT_SiteConfig.om and then change the values to suit your installation. 
IT seems that you have tried to do that, but the paste didn't work right 
and you also have Ldap settings that are for Jim Meyer's deprecated 
User_Local overlay, and not RT::Authen::ExternalAuth. If you have a 
setting that has LDAP in it and it doesn't appear in the example config 
that comes with ExternalAuth then you should remove it.

Also, are you sure you want to be using RT::Authen::CookieAuth?

Re: [rt-users] RT and project billing / CRM integration.

2008-04-24 Thread Kenneth Crocker
Daniel,


The USER Table the is part of the RT DataBase has a lot of info that 
may correlate to your client info needs. Why not just use that? As to 
project billing rate/project info, you're right, a Custom Field would 
work well AND there are some extension available that will highlight 
them with colors, etc. along with the standard RT rights to make them 
read-only, etc. just a thought.

 G'day.
 
 A client of mine has been using a product to do task, project, client
 and billing management, AllocPSA.  For various reasons they are
 considering moving away from that to something more open and widely used
 and supported.
 
 My recommendation, for task tracking, is Request Tracker: I have used it
 with success for years, and I am very comfortable that it can work well
 for managing job assignment, completion and history.
 
 There are a couple of features that AllocPSA, being a one stop shop
 provides that don't come out of the box with RT and which I wondered
 about what experience / advice y'all had for integration:
 
 
 My client currently has per-project billing rates for their staff, so a
 single engineer might be working on one job at $50 per hour, another at
 $75 and so forth.
 
 This is, currently, displayed on the tasks; my view is that this can be
 extracted in an overlay to the ticket display and added, as a read-only
 field, to one of the standard display boxes.
 
 (Alternately, it can be set and maintained as a custom field on the
  tickets, but I don't want them to be mutable and probably do want them
  more highlighted than a standard CF would be.)
 
 
 They also have some CRM style features: the software maintains a
 hierarchy of [ client 1 - * project 1 - * task ] in the system, so
 that a single client can have multiple projects and a project multiple
 tasks.
 
 It also provides contact management: a client has contact records, and
 so forth, which are then used once you get down to the project or task
 level.  
 
 It would be good to keep this sort of integration and, from experience,
 the user management part of RT really isn't targeted at this space: it
 doesn't seem to provide a lot of client focused searching or display,
 for example.
 
 The two approaches I can see to this are:
 
 1. Deploy some other CRM style application and encourage people to use
that, optionally using the command line tools to sync changes from
the external product into the RT client/user database.
 
 2. Modify RT to use an external data source for client/user information,
pulling that from the external tool directly.
 
 The second is more desirable, to my mind, since it avoids duplicating
 the information -- but I am not sure what sort of workload it would be
 to incorporate that into RT?
 
 
 I welcome your advice,
  Daniel

[rt-users] select unprivileged users

2008-04-24 Thread Matt Zagrabelny
Greetings,

I have searched the mailing list archives, the wiki, and google and
haven not come across an answer to this question:

Is it possible, from the web (Configuration - Users - Select User),
to select (not search for) unprivileged users?

I know that you can search for them, but I am wondering if there is a
config option, flag, check box, etc. that will allow unprivileged users
to show up as the privileged ones do?

Thanks,

Re: [rt-users] can users be prevented from editing 'RT at a glance'?

2008-04-24 Thread Kenneth Crocker
Chad,



Your Easiest solution is what I was going to recommend. The rub here 
is, you cannot modify the default query to include the Last Updated By 
column without affecting everyone. To do that, you would have to hack 
that logic to first recognise the user calling the query and then see if 
he is on some new list that defines the one's that want the extra 
column. VERY MESSY! So. unless your users are willing to put up with 
a modified version of the default query, there is no easy solution. 
Tough situation. Sorry I couldn't help more.

 So my need may be understood better - the reason I want to prevent my 
 users from modifying RT-at-a-glance is this:
 
 If you have a lot of tickets under tickets you own - it would be very 
 to identify with one glance which among all the tickets you own was 
 recently updated by the requestor, meaning there's new data available on 
 that ticket that you might have not read yet. I know sending out an 
 email to ticket owner when a ticket is updated by requestor is a 
 possible solution, but I wanted to do everything inside RT - so this is 
 not an option for me.
 
 I am actually not the only one needing this kind of functionality, as I 
 have noticed the same thing was also asked for in the RT-Wishlist here:
 http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/WishList
 
 The request reads: It would also be nice to highlight tickets that you 
 own but were not the last person to make contact with it. It's an easy 
 patch but would be nice to see it main stream.
 
 
 The easiest solution I found to this specific need is editing the 
 tickets you own part and then adding a column called LastUpdatedBy - 
 so a quick glance to the tickets you own will already tell you which 
 are the tickets where it was not you who last made contact but the customer.
 
 I have also found that making the modified RT-at-a-glance with the 
 LastUpdatedBy column as the default for all users can be done by 
 following the instructions here:
 http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/ChangeDefaultRTAtAGlance
 
 The very last thing that I just need to do now and which I cant seem to 
 solve, is how to prevent my users from modifying RT-at-a-glance, so they 
 will only use the default (I also dont want to deal with complaints like 
 hey, how come the columns in my RT-at-a-glance is different from my 
 neighbor?).
 
 Much thanks!
 Chad

 This is the modify self right, which can be applied on a per group or

 right, and users won't be able to update RT-at-a-Glance, and probably
 some other items related.
 
 
 
 The user I was trying things out with have /No rights granted/ in all 
 Global Group Rights and Global User Rights. My RT installation is an 
 almost fresh install that contains no modifications of any kind except 1 
 thing: i gave the system group Everyone the right to Comment, Create 
 and Reply to Tickets, and also SeeQueue for the queue General.
 
 In short, what I observed is that being able to edit RT-at-a-glance is 
 something that comes default to all users even if they have zero rights 
 granted in almost all areas except queue specific rights.
 

I would try creating a group, adding these users to that group, and then 
setting up the rights there.  I have been able to eliminate the ability 
to modify at-a-glance by removing the modify self right from the 
global group permissions.  Perhaps since you have to explicitly remove 
that right to override a default.   chris

I'm going to guess you mean RTx-RightsMatrix.  Prior to leaving my last 
position I was using it with v3.6.5 with no modifications.  I simply did 
a `perl Makefile.pl` and make install.  Everything was placed appropriately.

Re: [rt-users] Still struggling with mail that worked that doesn't now

2008-04-24 Thread Judy Illeman Gaukel
Hi Drew,
  I have used cpan to install Scalar::Util with no luck.   I guess what 
dumbfounds me is that all of this was working
before the latest Solaris patch (so I'm guessing the latest security 
patch must have munged up perl!)... 
So I haven't modified any of the RT files - or anything else, for that 
matter, since it had been running.  
I'm building RT on a fresh machine and importing the database, so I 
guess that is the work around.   One
way to force an upgrade, for sure!
  Thanks for your help,
 Judy


113400  [Thu Apr 17 19:42:01 2008] [error]: Scrip Prepare 6 died. - 
Undefined subroutine Scalar::Util::weaken called at 
/opt/csw/rt3/lib/RT/Action/Generic.pm line 107.

Rebuild Scalar::Util from CPAN.  RedHat's build is broken from RPM, so 
that error is well known.  It wouldn't surprise me if perhaps this was 
biting you also.

Regarding  113374  Can't locate RT/Action/.pm.  That is almost 
certainly a typo that you need to track down.

 Hi All,

 I just got RT 3.6.6 installed on gentoo and followed the installation
 instructions step by step.  I am able to get to the login page and
 login using root, but when I click on any link it brings me back to
 the login screen.  I can then log in and it will take me to where I
 need to go but I have to do this after every link I click.  I tried
 searching the archives but didn't find any answers.  Does anyone know
 a solution to this?

   

Make sure the following are set correctly in your RT_SiteConfig.pm file:

Set( $WebBaseURL , http://rt.path.domain.com;);
Set( $WebPath , /);

My WebPath was set wrong. It was based on an older configuration where
it was set to /rt3.
When it was set to the older config I would always go back to the login
page. when I clicked on a link.

After I changed it it worked fine.
