That’s what I thought. So I created the missing target that the link pointed to and copied the permissions (otrs & www-data) from the other Auto file and THAT’S what bricked my system.
I tried backing it out and the system is STILL bricked. I can login with command line and that’s it. My question is whether this a recovery possible or whether I have to reinstall the whole sorry thing.

Subject: Re: [otrs] Bricked install Please note that you're using an old OTRS version, we released the 3.x series in November last year. You really should try that instead, it's much nicer. If you find it too much work to install OTRS either sign up for http://otrsondemand.com or hire us to do it for you. Turnkey at this point is just a great way to try out an old version of OTRS; and apparently it has some other issues too, now. -- Mike On Fri, Jun 24, 2011 at 09:41, Nils Leideck <[email protected]> wrote: Hi Robert, both files have to be writeable by the webserver.

I installed the Turnkey Linux OTRS appliance. It seemed to install OK. Connecting to the admin dashboard was a pain because this system didn’t follow the documentation but I got around that. My problems started when I started troubleshooting why mail wasn’t arriving and opening tickets. I noticed an error about bad permissions on "/usr/share/otrs/Kernel/Config/Files/ZZZAuto.pm" This turned out to be a link to /var/lib/otrs/Config/ZZZAuto.pm and the target wasn’t there. I thought I would be brilliant and just touch the file and copy the permissions from /var/lib/otrs/Config/ZZZAAuto.pm Suddenly, when I clicked on the Admin icon on the webpage I got: [ <https://192.168.215.8/otrs/index.pl?> OTRS ] Error: Can't write /usr/share/otrs/Kernel/Config/Files/ZZZAAuto.pm: Permission denied!
