[rt-users] RT 4 Book advice please

2012-08-17 Thread o . nash
I am looking for information on configuring RT 4.0.6, as it seems to be 
quite a lot different than 3.8.


I have the RT Essentials [2005] bokk but perhaps there is something
out now that is targeting RT4?

thanks

Re: [rt-users] fresh install of RT-4.0.6 which JSON to use

2012-08-03 Thread o . nash

To answer my own question.
It looks like by taking the default 'Y'
to the CPAN prompt:-

Do you want to install JSON::XS?(Y/n) [Y]


that both JSON modules were installed.
 JSON -- 2.53
 JSON::XS -- 2.33

Thanks
yes I had seen that in a thread on discussion group but was reluctant to 
altar anything without a offering from the authers.


Anyway since I have messaed around with sessions table now I tried your 
suggestion and that seems to have fixed it.


Thank very much

rt-validator doesn't check every table that RT uses.

It sounds like you had a big mysql crash and you should be using the
mysql tools to validate every table.  If only sessions is corrupt, you
can always drop and recreate it since the information in there is
temporary.

Without the errors in your apache error log it's hard to offer
suggestions.  Usually this happens because your distribution upgraded
a perl module package and broke things.

Go back to your 3.6 instance and find the Scrip where you set an empty
Action and instead either delete that Scrip or pick a proper Action.

Then rerun the conversion

[rt-users] migrating mysql rt-3.6.3 db to new instance rt-3.8.8

2010-10-31 Thread o . nash

Hi all,
need advice on migrating to newer rt version.
I built rt-3.8.8 on a new server [ubuntu 10.0.4 with perl 5.10 ]
All went ok
got rt at a glance page up fine.

Then I took a dump of rt3 database from our running instance rt-3.6.3.
loaded this into the new rt3 database
did the upgrade [from the src tree dir] :
/opt/rt3/sbin/rt-setup-database --dba root --prompt-for-dba-password 
--action upgrade


But apache fails to start after this.
With this error:
RT since version 3.8 has new schema for MySQL versions after 4.1.0\nFollow 
instructions in the UPGRADING.mysql file. at /opt/rt3/bin/webmux.pl line 
146.\nCompilation failed in require at (eval 2) line 1.\n

Then I tried:-
etc/upgrade/upgrade-mysql-schema.pl rt3 root PASSWORD  3.8queries.sql
and:
mysql -u root -p rt3  ./3.8queries.sql

still fails to start apache
With slightly different errors:

Perhaps I should have dropped the rt-3.8.8 database and created a new 
blank one befor the import?


Any advice much appreciated.

Re: [rt-users] RT stopped sending mail / No recipients found. Not sending.

2008-01-03 Thread o . nash

Re sending emails from Rt
if your mailserver is postfix, you might need to add the hostname of the 
server running RT to the 'relayhosts' variable in postfix.

or the equivalent in sendmail.cf

Ben

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.

Stephen,


AHHH! Kool. I just learned something. Then I really can't see 
why RT can't find a recipient unless there is some disconnection between 
what RT is looking for and where it looks for it. Alexander said there 
were no changes to RT. The scrips are triggering, RT is looking, nothing 
is found, no email goes out, but probably would have if RT had found a 
recipient. I'm sure he checked the organization set to the DNS name of 
the host problem from before. I'm at a loss, but that's no big surprise 
since I am just now getting to learn about the internals of RT. Hope 
someone has an idea that works for him.

Alexander,

I agree. If RT could not access the DB, then a lot of things 
would not be working. However, my point was really that based on the 
content of the error message, RT thinks that it hasn't FOUND the 
recipient. There could, and probably are, many possible reasons for 
that. Perhaps after accessing the DB, the data gets lost in transition 
or put into an area that got misnamed or is not accessible for some 
reason. I am not a Systems guy when it comes to playing with those 
technologies (UNIX, ORACLE, MySQL, etc.), but I have been in the 
business for a long time and my debugging skills tell me that RT is 
having trouble with either capturing the data or finding/recognizing it 
after it has been captured/found/stored. 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 DO find when you get the problem resolved. Best 
of luck.

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.

Re: [rt-users] Problem installing rt36 port on FreeBSD

2007-12-14 Thread o . nash

Hi Kris,
I just completed my second install of rt-3.6.3 on ubuntu 7.1
my previous install was on open suse 10.1
While it is not an easy thing to install it can be done with care.
I initially used the book RT Essentials By Jesse Vincent ... O'Reilly
to act as a guide.
The method used it this book works.
[I am not sure about BSD unix though]
I used Apache2 2.0.61
mod_perl 2.0.3
perl 5.8.8
If you are still stuck I can send you a itemized list of steps needed.
But I would suggest the book 
regards
Oliver

[rt-users] RT 3.6.3 default queue setting and quick ticket creation

2007-10-23 Thread o . nash

We are fairly new users of RT and have not tried much customization yet.
The 2 default queues General and External are all we use.

2 things bothering me:-
1) the default queue setting can't find it.
2) 'Quick ticket creation' OR 'new ticket'

These are related since we just have 2 queues.
but when we use either of the methods 1) or 2) above to created a ticket 
they alwas default into the External queue.


How do we change this?

I have seen a web pages about a patch to do this, is this really 
necessary?


thanks
Oliver

Re: [rt-users] RT 3.6.3 default queue setting and quick ticket creation

2007-10-23 Thread o . nash

To suggest one answer to my own question 2)
Dane Rapaport in a previous post gave this:
His version was slightly different prob using an older version of RT.
I did similar kludge!! ;)
make backup copy of Queues_Overlay.pm in lib/RT
edit around line 80
  # By default, order by name
  $self-OrderBy( ALIAS = 'main',
  FIELD = 'Name',
  ORDER = 'DES');
Change order to DES as above and restart apache.

We are fairly new users of RT and have not tried much customization yet.
The 2 default queues General and External are all we use.

2 things bothering me:-
1) the default queue setting can't find it.
2) 'Quick ticket creation' OR 'new ticket'

These are related since we just have 2 queues.
but when we use either of the methods 1) or 2) above to created a ticket they 
alwas default into the External queue.
