Nick,
   Thanks for the reply - that did resolve the ticket issue.   Testing now to 
see what kind of performance change we see.

[rt-users] Problem seeing all unowned tickets.

2009-12-03 Thread Lander, Scott
All,

   In RT 3.8.5.I have a dozen or so queues, and people can't see tickets 
outside their own workgroup queue.   This works fine. Each user has the X 
newest unowned tickets search on their RT at a Glance page (the default).   
Until recently, this worked fine, but, recently people started reporting 
tickets missing from that search.

   The search is pretty simple - select  where owner = 'Nobody' and (Status = 
'new' or Status = 'open')

   When I ran this (or viewed it) as root I saw all the tickets.

   When I clicked on the X Newest unowned tickets tab, I would see all of the 
tickets - and in this case, there were 9, while the X in X Newest unowned 
tickets was 10.So, I expected to see all 9 tickets in the RT at a Glance 
page.Nope   Then I noticed that the search said 30 tickets found!OK 
- thats what I saw as root, too, because I was seeing all tickets, not just the 
ones in the users queue...

I noticed that the ticket that was missing from the user queue was ticket 
19 in the root list.   So, I set the users X displayed tickets to be 20.   Loh 
and behold - the missing ticket now shows up in his RT at a Glance!

   It turns out, we now have 20 (and growing) tickets that are no longer 
displayed in the home page, not because of any problem with the ticket, but, 
just their position in the list!  IE, even though the list has 30 tickets, 
across all of our queues, each user can only see tickets in the first 10 
positions.

   Does this description make any sense?   Does anyone have any clues how I can 
fix this?Obviously it will quickly be a major problem for us.

Thanks
