[rt-users] Autoreply Template Error
I’ve created a custom autoreply but seem to be getting an error in the logs when a ticket is created. No autoreply message is being sent. From the logs, I’ve worked out that this section of the template is causing problems: === Your ticket has been given a {$Ticket-Priority 40 ? Low priority. There is no fixed response time for this priority, but we will respond as time allows : $Transaction-Priority 80 ? Medium priority. We will respond by the end of the next working day : $Transaction-Priority 100 ? High priority. We will respond within 6 working hours : Critical priority. We will respond within 2 working hours}. If you require a response before that time, please call the Maintenance Support number. === The error I am getting is: === Oct 26 10:36:57 helpdesk RT: Template parsing error: RT::Transaction::Priority Unimplemented in Text::Template::GEN13. (template line 10) Stack: [/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/DBIx/SearchBuilder/Record.pm:495] [template:10] [/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Template_Overlay.pm:425] [/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Template_Overlay.pm:332] [/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Template_Overlay.pm:312] [/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Action/SendEmail.pm:155] [/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Action/Autoreply.pm:66] [/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/ScripAction_Overlay.pm:230] [/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Scrip_Overlay.pm:448] [/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Scrips_Overlay.pm:240] [/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Transaction_Overlay.pm:169] [/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Record.pm:1457] [/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Ticket_Overlay.pm:660] [/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Interface/Web.pm:1042] [/opt/rt3/share/html/Ticket/Display.html:117] [/opt/rt3/share/html/Ticket/Create.html:419] [/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Interface/Web.pm:320] [/opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT/Interface/Web.pm:224] [/op === I have another scrip / template that sends out a message when the priority is changed and it works okay, although that template uses $Ticket-OldValue and $Ticket-NewValue as opposed to $Ticket-Priority. If I understand it correctly, the priority isn’t implemted when a new ticket is created? Can anybody shed any light on why this is happening and how to resolve it?

[rt-users] RTFM Upgrade - Different Paths?
I have a working install of RTFM (hardly used it but it does work). I've just upgraded my installation of RTFM from v2.2.1 to v2.4.2 (latest). I followed the instructions (perl Makefile.pm, make install). However, upon viewing the version of the Perl module loaded under Tools-Configuration-System Congfiguration, the version of the Perl module RT::FM is still 2.2.1. I then looked for the FM.pm vile as I know the version number is in there. I now have two. A copy in /opt/rt3/local/lib/RT/FM.pm and /opt/rt3/local/plugins/RT-FM/lib/RT/FM.pm. The first one is the old version. The second is the new one. So I went and simply renamed the files and folders in /opt/rt3/local/lib/RT related to RTFM in the hope that RT would then pickup the new version in the plugins folder. Didn't happen. RT fell over. So my question is - how do I get RT to use the new version and not the old one? Don't ask me how I ended up with an install in local/lib/RT - I have no idea. I would have followed the instructions at the time of install as I don't know enough about Perl, and too scared of wrecking my RT install, to play around. Everything was installed at the default paths. Any help appreciated.

[rt-users] Setting up Escalation
Bit stuck here. Looked at the page http://wiki.bestpractical.com/view/ConfigureEscalation to setup Escalation. One of the examples suggested using this command line to test it: /opt/rt3/bin/rt-crontool --verbose --search RT::Search::FromSQL --search-arg (Status='new' OR Status='open') AND FinalPriority 0 AND Due 'Jan 1, 1970' --action RT::Action::Generic So I did that and get the following error: 102: Processing without transaction, some conditions and actions may fail. Consider using --transaction argumentAction prepared...Action committed. Many times (I assume the number is the ticket number). The problem I *think* I am having is that the account that cron runs under has to match a user in RT. I setup a user called rt_user in RT, gave it Global Permissions to ShowTicket and ModifyTicket and then set the account up in Linux (again as suggested in an example) , su into that account and run the command above but then I get an error about not finding RT_Config.pm - permission denied. I added rt_user to the root group but still the same problem. So I had a brainwave, setup an account on rt called root but it won't let me do that. So, I'm stuck. I don't want to start playing around with permissions in RT so can somebody please tell me what I need to do or point me in the right direction? Have checked the RT Essentials book but nothing significant in there.

Re: [rt-users] Query Builder - Custom Fields
Kenn, Thanks for that. Unfortunately they are not showing up so I assume (or does that make an ass ... etc) it doesn't work the same for CF's attached to Ticket Transactions. The one that is attached to Tickets is showing up though. Does anybody use these type of CF's and get them to work in Query Builder (or do I need to use another method to search these).

Now that I have upgraded this file has been replaced and the signature when I reply to a message now appears at the bottom of the reply box.

[rt-users] Template Variables - Not In FromAddress?!?
Hi, I'm using the template from the second message in this thread http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/rt/users/74122. While the problem I'm having is not this template in general (otherwise I'd contact the author), I have a question about the variables in FromAddress. The original code is this: my $FromAddress = 'RT Requests rt[at]myorg.org'; my $ContactAddress = 'real.person[at]myorg.org'; Now I've modified it to: my $FromAddress = 'RT Requests $RT::CorrespondAddress'; my $ContactAddress = $RT::CorrespondAddress; The $ContactAddress works fine and comes out to the correct address (as this is used in the message body later on), however the FromAddress is show as $RT::[EMAIL PROTECTED] (where MYHOSTNAME is the hostname of the server it's running on). I can't understand why this is. I've tried moving the and around the address so that it has spaces there in case that caused it. I've even modified the code so that it is: my $ContactAddress = $RT::CorrespondAddress; my $FromAddress = 'RT Requests $ContactAddress '; And the problem is still there. Can anybody help? One other amendment I was wanting to make was to change the FromAddress so that it reads: my $FromAddress = '$Ticket-QueueObj-Description $ContactAddress '; Which is what the AutoReply template uses when responding. Again this doesn't work and I removed it from the code so that it doesn't complicate things, however anybody help with this too? Many thanks in advance.

[rt-users] FW: Updating Tickets - MessageBox Size Double Lines
Hi, I would like to change the size of the message box that is shown when you update a ticket. It's currently around 10 lines high. In the RT_SiteConfig.pm file I changed the MessageBoxHeight variable to 30 but this doesn't seem to have made a difference - either it's the wrong thing to change or it just isn't working for me. Also in the message box when I hit enter the cursor moves two lines rather than just one. I changed the MessageBoxWrap value from HARD to SOFT thinking this would resolve it, however it didn't. In both cases above I did restart apache after updating the RT_SiteConfig,pm file I'm using RT 3.8.1 with RTFM installed (not sure of version but it was only installed yesterday so will be the latest).
