[rt-users] RT::Links strange behaviour
I am using RT::Links to iterate over a tickets links in two places.. one in Ticket_Local.pm and one in a dhandler. It works fine within Ticket_Local.pm but not from within the dhandler. In Ticket_Local.pm, I'm using: sub FindLinks { my $self = shift; my $links = new RT::Links($self-CurrentUser); $links = $self-Links('Base'); my $link=$links-Next(); if (defined $link) { $RT::Logger-info(found a link from Ticket_Local); } return 1; }; In a dhandler I'm using: my $ticket = RT::Ticket-new($session{'CurrentUser'} ); $ticket-Load( $myticketid ); unless ( $ticket-id ) { $RT::Logger-error(Couldn't load ticket #$myticketid); return $m-abort( 404 ); } $ticket-FindLinks(); my $links = new RT::Links($session{'CurrentUser'} ); $links = $ticket-Links('Base'); my $link = $links-Next(); if (defined $link) { $RT::Logger-info(found a link from dhandler); } I only get found a link from Ticket_Local in logs. Anyone know why?

Re: [rt-users] Problem in installing RT::Authen::ExternalAuth

They're useful, but all fairly limited and impose many constraints. I'm asking for a general solution, but what I'm presently most interested in is a way of graphing the relative abundance of custom field values amongst tickets matching a given query. i.e; I'd like a pie chart of how many tickets created in the last month have CF-Fred set to foo, bar, baz or qux... What you describe should be built into 3.8 Search for tickets created after 2009-07-01 Scroll the bottom of the results, choose a Pie chart and chart by Custom Field Fred -kevin ___ http://lists.bestpractical.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rt-users Community help: http://wiki.bestpractical.com Commercial support: sa...@bestpractical.com Discover RT's hidden secrets with RT Essentials from O'Reilly Media.

Re: [rt-users] Tool to graph custom fields?
Ah, yes, got it! Thanks. I forgot that RT assumes CF's are queue specific, and only shows them when a queue is specified. We have several CFs that are used in multiple queues e.g; Tags; and sometimes want to search across queues based on these fields. In query builder this can be gotten around by first selecting a queue, then your CF condition, then deleting the queue from the query... The workaround for this chart is similar, get your results for one queue, then remove the queue condition from the URI. -- Cambridge Energy Alliance: Save money.

[rt-users] Custom Fields per queue
We are ramping up our RT install here to provide more expanded services. I did the original install (I seem to install this at every job I go to), but it is now getting handed off to another manager, and, with my help, we are adjusting it to fit a working model that he has built. I've been using RT for years (and years.. and years.. and years..), and even encouraged the guys here to buy the book (two copies) so as to train them on the inner workings of the interface. We are now at the point where we want certain custom fields for the different queues. We have about 8 different queues that we support and we are trying to apply custom fields to different queues. For example, we have defined one custom field pull-down called Priority with several options that we want applied to all of the queues, one custom field called IT Category with a pull down of several options that we want applied to our Desktop Support queue, and one custom field called IDX Category with a pull down of several options that we want applied to our Applications queue. The web interface seems rather straight forward once you work through it a couple of times, but I cannot seem to have the correct end result. Am I missing something here?

[rt-users] Query on Content is case sensitive
I've recently upgraded to rt3.8.3 from 3.6.5 and everything is working very well except that I've just discovered that a query based on Content is case sensitive. I've tried other queries based on Subject and Requestor etc and they are all case insensitive. Looking at the mysql upgrade script, I think that Content has been changed to longblob and that type is case sensitive according to mysql documentation. Has anyone else noticed this behaviour and are there suggestions for a workaround?

Re: [rt-users] Custom Fields per queue
I'm not sure what you mean by correct result. But I recently figured out a problem I was having with queues and custom fields. Mine related more to a dashboard's ability to see the custom field. It seems that if the custom field is a queue only field then the dashboard cannot be setup to show a column using that custom field. On the other hand if the custom field is setup as a global field it shows up readily as choice for a column to be picked as displayable in the dashboard. I've setup my install so that custom fields intended for a queue are only there and ones that should be in all queues are globally setup. Perhaps that is what you need to do... Kevin W.

Re: [rt-users] Custom Fields per queue
By correct result, I meant that it would do what I was trying for: o Custom Field associated to all tickets regardless of queue o Custom field associated to all tickets in queue A o Custom field associated to all tickets in queue B Is this possible? -Rich On Wed, 08 Jul 2009 14:06:54 -0700, Kevin Gagel wrote: I'm not sure what you mean by correct result.
