So, I figured out, I just needed to redo the chown root:www-data -R Callbacks/
I am now seeing the new logger in the rt.log file, which I was still seeing the 
old one to the minute, until I replaced the permissions AGAIN (same permissions 
I mind you).  And the callback works like a charm.
This makes no sense to me...but this corrected the issue I have been having.  
Just thought I would share this saga with everyone else.

Subject: Weird stuff happening with Callbacks and Debugger

This actually works.  It appears I just need to wait until the next day...that 
doesn't make sense.  What the heck is going wrong?


1.       Modify the ModifyQuery Callback

2.       Rights are as follows with ownership as root:www-data - 644

3.       rm -rf /opt/rt4/var/mason_data/obj/*

4.       restart the apache service

The only thing I did differently this morning was mv from a backup file I had 
used previously (in the same directory, same rights, same code) to the actual 
ModifyQuery file.  I changed ownership recursively on the /Callbacks folder 
using chown root:www-data -R /Callbacks
This was already the case, but I did it again.  Now, I modify the file, the new 
debug line does not show up in RT.log, and it maintains the code I had started 
with earlier this morning (
$RT::Logger->error("Hi");
$$query = "fulltext:customer";

I have changed it to add before query
$RT::Logger->error("the value of the query is ",
                $$query);
And
$$query = "fulltext:$$query";

No matter what, when I do a simple search, "Hi" still shows up in the logs, but 
not the new logging info, and the search is hardcoded for a fulltext:customer 
search...still.

Any ideas on what I am missing?  I even went as far as to reboot the server.  
Still getting "Hi" in the logs and the hardcoded search.  Weird...what am I 
missing to get it to recognize my changes?

Subject: RE: RT Logger not logging to file

UPDATE:
The $RT->Logger calls are running as expected within the other callback I have 
written as well as any .pm's I have added it to for testing.  There is 
something wrong with the structure for the ModifyQuery in which no matter what 
I put, it breaks the query and I cannot obtain any logging files out of the 
logger, even if that is the only thing within the ModifyQuery file.

Any other ideas?

Subject: [rt-users] RT Logger not logging to file

This is a follow-up to my issue with the modification of the ModifyQuery 
callback.  Well, I have another callback that works beautifully, as expected: 
SkipTransaction, and only allows the user to see the initial creation of the 
ticket and any correspondence (comments are omitted).  (By the way, I just 
tried putting in the %init portion of Create.html directly a call of 
$RT::Logger->debug("The current queue is " $Queue); after the rendering of the 
ticket page before if ticket is clone, and I did NOT receive this in the RT 
log.  I would appreciate any assistance in debugging the debugger!

Here is the code for that callback with the Logger inserted:
<%init>
    return if $session{'CurrentUser'}->Privileged;
    my($myskip)=1;
    if ($Transaction->Type =~ /^(Correspond|Create)$/) {
        $myskip=0;
    }

$RT::Logger->debug("The value of myskip is ",
                $myskip);

$$skip=$myskip;
</%init>

<%args>
$Transaction => undef
$skip
</%args>
Now, for whatever reason, I am not seeing anything in the logs related to this. 
 I see all the authentication of the unprivileged user via LDAP, and the 
rendering of attachments (text/html) for this ticket when viewed, but no "The 
value of myskip is <0 or 1>"

Kevin pointed out there may be some issues with the install, but I have 
installed this from source and it has been tested thoroughly, and so far, the 
only flaw is the logger, and the fact that I can't seem to get the ModifyQuery 
callback working.

Any ideas why the RT logger is not working within the callbacks and not working 
for any calls I have added directly in the code?  It works on calls which are 
already in the code, and my format is the same...I would like to fix this, or 
find the problem as soon as possible.

Thanks in advance.
