Hi,

    First I would like to say thank you all for the help.  We got our logo to show up.   Here is what we did in case anyone else runs into this (replace $RT_HOME with where RT is installed):
  • created local logo (mylogo.gif) in $RT_HOME/local/html/NoAuth/images
  • edit local layout.css file in $RT_HOME/local/html/NoAuth/css/web2
    • remove display: none; from div#logo a
  • edit the RT_SiteConfig.pm in $RT_HOME/etc
Set($WebBaseURL, "http://server");
Set($WebPath, "/rt");
Set($WebImagesURL , $WebPath . "/NoAuth/images/");
Set($LogoURL, $WebImagesURL . 'mylogo.gif');
Set($LogoLinkURL, 'http://server');
Set($LogoImageURL, $WebImagesURL . "mylogo.gif");
Set($LogoAltText, "MyInformation");
Set($LogoWidth, '486');
Set($LogoHeight, '155');

At this point it didn't work and we received the following errors:
In FireFox:
The image “http://server/rt/NoAuth/images/mylogo.gif” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.
or in IE:
'<&' without matching '&>' at $RT_HOME/local/html/NoAuth/images/mylogo.gif line 90
sometimes:
Error during compilation of /$RT_HOME/local/html/NoAuth/images/mylogo.gif:

To get past that we had to add the below to our apache config:
 <Directory $RT_HOME/share/html/NoAuth/images>
        SetHandler default-handler
 </Directory>

Restart apache and clear the mason cache and still no image.  Apparently adding that to the apache configuration causes the local images directory ($RT_HOME/local/html/NoAuth/images) to not work.  Moving the image into the non local directory ($RT_HOME/share/html/NoAuth/images) causes the image to show up.  However since our image was a different size we also had to modify the Logo file ($RT_HOME/share/html/Elements) by making a local copy ($RT_HOME/local/html/Elemets).  Here is what we changed:
<a href=""><img
    src=""
    alt="<%$RT::LogoAltText%>"
    width="<%$RT::LogoWidth%>"
    height="<%$RT::LogoHeight%>" /></a>

After restarting apache and clearing the mason cache the image showed up.  We did have to edit other CSS files because our logo was bigger.

Hi,

    I followed these http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/ChangeLogo directions, but there still isn't any logo getting displayed.  When I do a view source I see the code for the logo but nothing is displayed on the page.  I also found this http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/78249?do=post_view_threaded which looks like the same issue I'm having.  Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

The CSS for the web2 style prevents the logo image being displayed.  As a
quick way of telling that the modifications you made so far are correct, try
setting your preferences to use one of the other styles. The logo should
appear.
To make the logo appear under the default web2 style, as well as changing the
background to match the colour scheme of our company logo I created a local
copy of layout.css with the following changes:

(Note the file names are from the FreeBSD layout for rt-3.8.x -- on most systems
the original file would be in ${RTHOME}/html/NoAuth/css/web2/layout.css and the modified copy should go into ${RTHOME}/local/NoAuth/css/web2/layout.css)

This displays the logo in the bottom left of the browser window -- it's fixed relative
to the window rather than scrolling with the page content.  I also cooked up a modified
background-gradient.png in gimp -- just changing the colours -- which I installed into
/usr/local/www/rt38/NoAuth/css/web2/images/source/background-gradient.png.  In order
to get it to display I had to copy /usr/local/share/rt38/html/NoAuth/css/web2/images/dhandler to /usr/local/www/rt38/NoAuth/css/web2/images/dhandler

Et voilà.

    Cheers,

    Matthew
