Excellent point - the ${RT_USER} is the user that runs the RT application. For example, if you use Apache (without suexec), the files are owned by apache or whatever user that executes httpd. The template directories and files need to be accessible (read + write) by the RT application user.

To further assist you, can you tell me which version of RT you are running, apache setup, etc...? Was the mason cache cleaned out before restarting RT? Were the files installed under the /local directory of your RT3 installation?

Regardless whether or not if the Callbacks are working, if StockAnswers is installed under /local, you should be able to access the editor under: rt.web.url.com/Tools/StockAnswers/index.html and the StockAnswers configuration under: rt.web.url.com/Admin/Tools/StockAnswersConfiguration.html (if logged in as a SuperUser for the latter).

I've only been able to test StockAnswers on a fresh install of RT 3.6.1 and a customized 3.4.2 version. The Callbacks work for 3.6.1, but may need to be tweaked for earlier versions of RT?

I certainly appreciate the input and I'll revise the instructions so they read more clearly.

Quoting Mathew Snyder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

I'm having a hard time following your installation instructions.  Is
${RT_USER} supposed to be the rt user created for the database or is it
supposed to be the user which owns all the files under the rt directory?

I've created all the directories and chowned them to the user which owns
the directories/files, restarted httpd and I don't see anything either
under Tools or Configuration->Tools.  What am I looking for?

StockAnswers for RT is a solution for allowing users to insert
predefined templates into their replies. This might be useful for people
who are looking for an alternative to RTFM.

Just like its original predecessor, it requires client-side JavaScript
to be activated.  The rewritten version has a configuration editor
(Admin/Tools/StockAnswersConfiguration.html) and a template editor
(Tools/StockAnswers) that can save and restore backup copies of original
modifications.
