[rt-users] Customize Quicksearch RT 4.0.4

2011-11-30 Thread Sean McDaid
Hi,

I have upgraded to RT 4. I have defined a few different custom statuses in
RT_SIteConfig such as:

Set(%Lifecycles,
default = {
initial = [ 'new' ],
active  = [ 'open', 'stalled', 'next_rel', 'inv_pend',
'cust_info' ],
inactive= [ 'resolved', 'rejected', 'deleted' ],

When I log in I see the QuickSearch includes these columns (''next_rel,
'inv_pend', 'cust_info').

The summaries Active Tickets I own and Waiting Tickets I own group
tickets by state (ie. Active or Waiting) regardless of their status.

Is there a way to customize the Quicksearch to group by state, ie. 3
columns Active, Waiting, Planning?

Also where can the state of a status be defined, for example cust_info
should be a Waiting state?

Thanks for any help
Sean

Re: [rt-users] Upgrading from RT 3.6.2 to RT 4.0.4

2011-11-25 Thread Sean McDaid
Thanks Kevin and Jared,

This helped. I should have done the database upgrade (rt-setup-database) to
just to 3.7.87, then ran upgrade-mysql-schema.pl and then went back and
finished the data upgrade.

Seem to be good now,

[rt-users] Upgrading from RT 3.6.2 to RT 4.0.4

2011-11-18 Thread Sean McDaid
Hello,

I'm am working on upgrading from RT 3.6.4rc2 to RT 4.0.4.

I am having some difficulties with the sequence of instructions provided in
README, UPGRADING.mysql and version upgrades (UPGRADING-3.6, UPGRADING-3.8
and UPGRADING-4.0).

Even though I have MySQL version 4.1 but as I am running RT 3.6 I must
follow the procedure outlined in UPGRADING.mysql.

This tells me to follow the instruction in README up to point 6b. In README
step 2 I have to run ./configure, do I run this with default options or
specify: --with-db-database=rt3 (to point to my current database)?

After this I fix all the required dependencies.

I skip README 6a as I am upgrading, instead I follow README 6b where I run
make upgrade, which works.

After make upgrade it tells me to run make upgrade-database which tries
to connect to rt4 database (with ./configure default) or rt3 database if I
used --with-db-database=rt3, both of these fail with:
   Access denied for user 'rt_user'@'localhost' to database 'rt3' OR
Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (if I used root)
I guess I missed something which caused this failure. Any ideas?

It then directs me back to UPGRADING.mysql step 4 which tells me to apply
Apply the RT 3.8 schema upgrades.. Is this etc/upgrade/
upgrade-mysql-schema.pl?

Are these steps correct? Or is there a worked example of an upgrade frmo
RT3 to RT4?

Also at what point am I supposed to apply the changes outlined in
UPGRADING-3.6,
UPGRADING-3.8 and UPGRADING-4.0?

Thanks for any help!

[rt-users] Can't change ticket statuses

2011-07-20 Thread Sean McDaid
Hello,

After recently installing RT4, I have a load of ticket migrated from 3.8.

Previously on RT3 when as user logged in they were able to see and change
all the statuses of ticket they raised or owned.

Now in my new RT4 installation when a ticket is in Waiting state  the status
cannot be changed at all. When the ticket is in active
state I have only the options {open, new, stalled, reject, deleted}
available in the dropdown.

This is what I have in RT_SiteConfig.pm:
   @ActiveStatus = qw(new open po_req inv_po in_test) unless @ActiveStatus;
   @InactiveStatus = qw(resolved rejected deleted) unless @InactiveStatus;

Am I missing something, or does this have to do with LifeCycle in RT4?

Thanks
Sean

Hi, yes zooming also causes the same problem. When I turn off either
scripting or CSS the problem disappears.
I'm trying to figure out what IE is doing differently than Firefox/Chome.

 Hey Sean,
Does zooming make the problem worse or do we have different issues?

 It sounds dumb, but I think the issues I related to zooming in.  If I have
 no zoom at 100% everything works fine.  The second I try to zoom its freezes
 and if I am at 115%, which was my default, then it freezes when I get into
 rt at a glance.  I can zoom in and out like crazy in Firefox without
 experiencing any problems.

 Mod_perl2, External Auth to an LDAP server, LDAP Importer.  Not sure what
 else you would be interested in.


 Problem occurs with or without IE compatibility mode.

 VirtualHost server.example.com:80

   AddDefaultCharset UTF-8

   DocumentRoot /opt/rt4/share/html
   Location /
   Order allow,deny
   Allow from all

   SetHandler perl-script
   PerlResponseHandler Plack::Handler::Apache2
   PerlSetVar psgi_app /opt/rt4/sbin/rt-server
   /Location
   Perl
   use Plack::Handler::Apache2;

 Plack::Handler::Apache2-preload(/opt/rt4/sbin/rt-server);
   /Perl
   /VirtualHost


 Set( $rtname, 'server.example.com');
 Set ($WebPath , );
 Set ($WebBaseUrl , server.example.com:80); Set ($WebURL , 
 http://server.example.com/;); Set ($WebDomain, server.example.com);

 Obviosly I changed my servername to server.example.com all FQDN

Re: [rt-users] New install of RT4 crashes Internet Explorer 8

2011-07-01 Thread Sean McDaid
Yeah I can't recreate the issue there, perhaps I haven't created a large
enough
ticket. More likely though it is my configuration or data migration - I had
to upgrade
from 3.6 - 4.0 in one go.

Is there some way to migrate a 3.6 database directly to 4.0 and then simply
hook
this into a RT 4.0 install? This was done manually which I'm skeptical
about.

Thanks
Sean

 This should create a relatively large ticket - load this up with IE8
 with scripting enabled. This takes a very long time, and window
 resizing also affects it.

 Would you find a ticket on issues.bestpractical.com (login using
 guest/guest) which shows the problem you're seeing? That will allow
 us to compare apples to apples.

  OK so I've upgraded to 4.0.1 and the issue persists. Again when I turn
off the scripts the problem is solved.
 Can you provide a simple test case that we can use to reproduce the
problem?

[rt-users] New install of RT4 crashes Internet Explorer 8

2011-06-29 Thread Sean McDaid
I have installed Request Tracker 4.0.0 on CentOS release 5.6. The database
is MySQL 5 which is running remotely from the RT instance.

When I create a very large ticket or open a migrated large ticket with
Firefox there are no problems. But when I open the same ticket with IE8, it
either crashes or takes a very long time to open.
If the ticket loads and I resize the IE window or scroll up and down the
window again freezes.

I have check the RT logs in Debug when loading from both Firefox and IE and
don't see any differences. I also thought it might have been a problem with
the migrated data from RT 3.6 but this issue is happening with newly created
tickets.

Does anyone have an Idea what may be happening here?

Thanks

Hi Christopher,

That actually seems like the issue. From Internet Options I've turned off
Scripting and the problem is no-longer present.
I'll upgrade to the new release to see if that resolves issue.
