Re: [rt-users] Install RT on Rackspace Cloud Server

2010-07-27 Thread Ben McLendon
Good news!

Using the procedure located 
HERE<http://www.ptitov.net/2008/07/request-tracker-installation-o.html> I was 
successful in getting a bare install of RT 3.8.8 up and running on the 
Rackspace CloudServer.

Doing a bit of testing/tweaking now...  I'll get a image of the build so far 
and then try the data migration.

It would be useful if you could give some idea of where you fell down
so that we can provide some specific pointers. In general, the plan
would be like something like:

* configure new installation and test with test database
...
* shut down new installation and wipe out test database
* make sure that appropriate configuration changes have been made
* rtname and organization should match old system
* shut down current installation
* dump database to a file
* load database onto new server
* run database upgrade process on new server:
 rt-setup-database --action upgrade [..]
* start up new installation

You'd want to test that whole migration cycle before trying it for real,
ensuring that you don't accidentally send out mail to real users whilst
doing that stage of testing.

This assumes that no local modifications have been made to the old
system.

[rt-users] Give a ticket

2006-08-07 Thread Ben McLendon








The only option in the “Owner” dropdown is
Nobody. Is there a way to “give” a ticket to another user?  I have to tell a tech to “take” a
ticket so we can keep track of who is working on what.

We are running a new install of RT 3.4.5 on Redhat ES4.

When creating a ticket and entering a recipient in the cc
