Which ' local file system' references are you talking about? Any time the code refers to a file on disk for configuration or operational information instead of the database. My goal was to have the entire OTRS system code (with the exception of the data it operates on) to be read-only. I

Especially for this scenario, since version 3.3.5 the otrs.LoaderCache.pl script has the --generate option. Run it on both nodes; and you will be able to log in just fine. You could call via a cron job or after installs and upgrades on all your nodes. But as Johannes mentioned, to do a

If you no longer care about the stuff older than a week, take a copy of Thunderbird or some standalone POP client, and delete the old stuff. Check to see if your Exchange boxes have IMAP enabled. If so, stop OTRS, connect a IMAP client like Outlook and move the old ones to a subfolder. The

What userid are you using when attempting to edit the file? The files in OTRS are usually owned by the system otrs userid, and are not world-writable (as they should be). If you need to modify them from another userid, you need to have privileges via sudo (the right way) or by becoming root via

Re: [dev] How to Delete Customer?

2013-02-26 Thread David Boyes
Yes, my process for deleting customers includes deleting tickets too. I hope, I can do this in GenericAgent. Yes, you should be able to do that. I'd still leave the user records in the database with anonymized data, though. The current user id field management logic is a little fragile if

yes, you are right. This would be the easiest way. But I'm not very happy with this, because every year 10,000 students are leaving our university and all would produce empty entries. I'm not very familiar with databases. Will we run into performance problems, if there are so many new entries

Re: [dev] Why is Service Mandatory while creating ticket against for SLA?

2013-02-22 Thread David Boyes
In ITIL, SLAs apply to services or other objects. It doesn't make sense to open a ticket against just a SLA object; it's a set of rules describing evaluation parameters, not a failing object itself. Think of it as a Boolean value. You have to identify what the combination of rule and object the

As of now we only have an option to make customer invalid by setting Valid=0. Do we have any option to permanently delete the customer? If yes, then is are similar way for Services also? This is not a good idea. What happens when you go back to an old ticket, and OTRS no longer has the

Well I agree that for Perl you don't get much benefits using a IDE or a very fancy editor, but when you start thinking that OTRS is not just a bunch of Perl code, but also JS, HTML, XML, YAML, CSS, etc. You maybe start thinking that a tool to cover them all should be a good idea, with some

Don’t try to map the Java/C# development models onto Perl. Perl really doesn’t benefit much from an IDE, and at least in my shop, the IDE is more work than help, so we don’t use one for Perl code. There is an Eclipse mode for Perl, but it doesn’t really do much. Also, Perl is essentially
