[rt-users] Fulltext search with date ranges
Hi, I know the caveats with enabling a fulltext search on a non- PostgreSQL or sphinx setup. However, Can RT do a fulltext search (/Search/Simple.html) with a date range? I suspect the answer is no, that this is not a supported field, but thought I would ask anyway; something like: fulltext:coffee Created-2 days ago and Created = today I have a portlet that I copied from http://requesttracker.wikia.com/wiki/Full_Text_Search_Portlet and see date ranges here for a sphinx search: http://requesttracker.wikia.com/wiki/IntegrateSphinx and thought that adding date ranges to Full_Text_Search_Portlet might make this a little faster. It is currently fine in testing with about 30,000 tickets; v. slow for resolved tickets as expected, but fine at the moment for open/stalled/new tickets.

[rt-users] 3.8.8-4.0.2 upgrade: /lib/RT/Template.pm line 627, line 1
Hi, I am testing an upgrade from 3.8.8 to latest 4.0.2 (mysql-5.0.x/ httpd-2.2.x) I found it easier to set up a new rt4 folder and database and to manually migrate my few updates/config changes across. To do this I first dropped all newly created rt4 tables and then imported my rt3 database into rt4. I then ran /opt/rt4/sbin/rt-setup- database --prompt-for-dba-password --action upgrade The code from Template.pm line 627 is: if ($self-Type eq 'Perl' !$self-CurrentUser-HasRight(Right = 'ExecuteCode', Object = $RT::System)) { return ( undef, $self-loc('Permission Denied') ); } Any ideas on what might causing the warnings? All seems well with the system (including latest RT-Authen-ExternalAuth) and the upgrade is worth it just for the Show/Hide quoted text, but I am concerned about the three warnings below.

Re: [rt-users] Slow Ticket History 3.8.8
Hi, If you are using mysqld have a look at mysqltuner.pl perl script (google) This has fixed quickly many performance issues on both RT and other web-based software we use. I run this every few weeks and apply suggested changes and then simply restart mysqld when things are quite.

We put a lot of comments/replies in our tickets. Often there can be 50-100 entries in a ticket, mostly plain text. Loading such a ticket can take 10-20secs. We don't have any slow queries - all the time seems to be in the code rendering the history of the ticket. We've had a go at stripping functions out of ShowHistory, ShowTransaction and ShowTransactionAttachmments but not had much success. FWIW our RT runs on quad 3ghz Xeons with 8gb of ram. I'd like to try and determine if we're just slow, or if this is just how long RT takes. Maybe perl is just slow. Can anyone shed any light on how long it takes them to render long tickets in their systems? If you look at the page source it gives you a value e.g. spanTime to display: 24.996907/span Can anyone share some numbers from theirs for longer tickets? It would be really appreciated.

[rt-users] Escalating priorities and using 'LastUpdated' in searches
Hi, We are currently escalating priorities for all queues each night with a cron job. # escalate tickets for all queues while (my $queue = $queues-Next) { my $queuename = $queue-Name; system($crontool --search RT::Search::ActiveTicketsInQueue . --search-arg \$queuename\ . --action RT::Action::EscalatePriority); } Now some people are complaing that they cannot look at tickets that haven't been updated in a given time period (by a real person) using 'LastUpdated' in searches, since most tickets have their priority updated every night and there is a transaction: root - Priority changed from… Is there a way to ignore transactions of priority change when running queries using 'LastUpdated', or perhaps I should not run the cron job at all. I am not sure that it really provides us with anything at the moment other than being able to sort on priority. What do other people do with escalating priorities and using LastUpdated in searches?

[rt-users] Numeric ids
Hi, Is there anyway to get a logon to RT with a numeric id. I have looked at some threads discussing this: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/34013?search_string=numeric%20user%20id;#34013 http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/57938?search_string=numeric%20user%20id;#57938 http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/26803?search_string=numeric%20username;#26803 http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/49768?search_string=numeric%20username;#49768 All our students have numeric ids (9 digit number) and we are using LDAP authentication. I can probably store the username as their email address, and then LoadByGecos (numeric id) as suggested in one of the threads. Buy where do I make this change. Also, I suspect that I will then try to bind to my LDAP with an email address, rather than UID, which wont work. I have looked at Record.pm and I can force through autocreation of an account with numeric id on a test system, but cannot get this to logon by LDAP. User_Overlay.pm has some code (sub Load) that looks like it could be changed. Again, I do not know the side-effects of changing things here. Any ideas/pointers, or even just someone telling me that this is not supported at all would be good.

[rt-users] RT-Authen-ExternalAuth-0.05
Hi, I am using RT-Authen-ExternalAuth-0.05 and all is generally good. Our users are in OpenLDAP which looks something like the following. dc=ourdomain,dc=ie ou=Users ou=Students ou=50 uid=501.. uid=502... ou=51 uid=511.. uid=512... All staff emails auto-create an account when email is first sent to RT or when they logon to self-service. External gmail type accounts are OK as well. However, our student accounts generate the below errors. All student account uids are basically their 8 digit student number and emails are of form [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have given 'Everyone' permissions on the relevant queue. Does anyone have any ideas as to why one group of users work but not others. Obvious differences between accounts are that uids for students are all numeric, and their LDAP branch is organised a little differently, but when an email is sent it finds the relevant attrs. from OpenLDAP. When I logon using my credentials, in LDAP log I see a SRCH and then a BIND. But nothing appears when trying a student account self-service login.

If the error is something like: RT could not load a valid user, and RT's configuration does not allow for the creation of a new user for your email. Then maybe you haven't given CreateTicket permissions to Everyone on the particular queue.

[rt-users] Global scrips/templates vs queue specific scrips/templates
Hi, RT has global scrips that apply to all queues. Is there a way to leave these scripts completely alone and simply to stop a global script from running on a specific queue? For example we have the following global scrip:- Description:On Create Autoreply To Requestors Condition: On Create Action: Autoreply to Requestors Template: Global template: Autoreply Stage: Transaction Create Suppose I have a queue that I want a slightly different Autoreply on. How do I set things up so that all other queues get the standard Autoreply, but a specific queue gets a different scrip/template only. At the moment I get *two* emails when I submit to this other queue. One from the global script/template and a queue specific one. Is this even possible or is there a better way to do this? I know I could disable the global script, but then I would have to have an Autoreply setup for all other queues. Any help or just some pointers would be great. I am still getting my head around how RT works and I don't want to make silly workflow decisions before rolling this out.

Re: [rt-users] RT version 3.8.0 and RT-Authen-ExternalAuth-0.05
Hi Brian, Thanks for the reply. I have got this working on OpenLDAP. Some comments for others: I used: 'user' = 'cn=manager,dc=mydomain,dc=ie' It is not clear from documentation that this needs to be a full distinguished name (DN), which I see you use. Above is an example of the standard openldap admin user, or perhaps better to create a special user for this in OpenLDAP. ldapsearch -LLL -x -D cn=manager,dc=mydomain,dc=ie -W -h myldap.mydomain.ie ((sn=Doran)(objectClass=posixAccount)) This worked after I installed 'yum install openldap-clients'. I also installed perl-LDAP as you suggested, Good for testing. My final comment. I was assuming that users were automatically created from the external data source when they tried to log on. So when I tried user 'jbloggs' I got the 'Your username or password is incorrect' error. However, when I simply added a user (just the user id) from the RT web interface up pops all the mapped attributes in the add user form, and the authentication is then successful. I stupidly assumed that external sourced users were automatically created after authentication from the external source. I mis-read: # If this is set to 1, then users should be autocreated by RT # as internal users if they fail to authenticate from an # external service. Set($AutoCreateNonExternalUsers,1); as something like, AutoCreateExternalUsers. Ah well! Thanks again, Jason On 25 Jul 2008, at 16:11, Brian Buchanan wrote: I can say it works with Active Directory.
