[rt-users] Almost there... Some progress... maybe...

2006-08-29 Thread Ben Weston
Several people have sent me emails directly have have been quite 
helpful.  I appolgize if I haven't replied personally.


The advice I've gotten has certainly made some progress  Though I'm 
still looking at the same page as a result.  Please bare with me while I 
paste in cfg's and error messages.

Here's what I had/have/have done:
From /var/log/httpd/error_log earlier today:
DBI connect('dbname=rt3;host=localhost','rt_user',...) failed: Access 
denied for user 'rt_user'@'localhost' (using password: YES) at 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/DBIx/SearchBuilder/Handle.pm line 108
[Tue Aug 29 10:05:59 2006] [error] [client 192.168.51.72] Connect Failed 
Access denied for user 'rt_user'@'localhost' (using password: YES)\n at 
/opt/rt3/lib/RT.pm line 176\n


Reset my password for the rt user, and made sure all the RT config 
settings were sane (a couple of them were originally incorrect), I'm no 
longer getting those errors...


From /var/log/httpd/error_log, now:
[Tue Aug 29 13:01:54 2006] [notice] suEXEC mechanism enabled (wrapper: 
/usr/sbin/suexec)
[Tue Aug 29 13:01:57 2006] [notice] Digest: generating secret for digest 
authentication ...

mutexes based on 256 max processes and 0 max threads.
[Tue Aug 29 13:01:57 2006] [notice] Apache/2 configured -- resuming 
normal operations


Everything looks Ok to me here (please correct me if I'm wrong).

I went and made sure that the rt user for mysql had full access to the 
rt3 database.



Not sure if there is anything else that would be helpful in 
troubleshooting this...  I'm thinking it's a DBase permission issue, but 
I'm no longer gettig any errors regarding that...  Suggestions?   Other 
logfiles I should be looking at?



Thanks again,
Ben

Ben -

If this is a cut/paste, looks like there's still a tyop [sic] in
your httpd.conf -- you're specifying /opt/rt3/ everywhere except the
Directory container where the handlers are defined. That directory
container is for /opt/rt34/share/html, rather than /opt/rt3/share/html.

Or was this a cosmetic error introduced while emailing


No, that was a typo in my config I thought I'd fixed this morning, but 
apparently hadn't


Originally, when I went with /opt/rt3 instead of rt34, it would just 
bomb out with a 500 error...  This time I'm getting:


*error:*RT couldn't store your session.
This may mean that that the directory '/opt/rt3/var/session_data' isn't 
writable or a database table is missing or corrupt.


*context:*

*86:*   };
*87:*   undef $cookies{$cookiename};
*88:*   }
*89:*   else {
*90:*   die loc(RT couldn't store your session.) . \n
*91:*   . loc(
*92:*  	This may mean that that the directory '[_1]' isn't writable or

*94:*   )
*...*   

*code stack:*   /opt/rt3/share/html/Elements/SetupSessionCookie:90
/opt/rt3/share/html/autohandler:73


Raw Error:

This may mean that that the directory '/opt/rt3/var/session_data' isn't 
writable or a database table is missing or corrupt.

/opt/rt3/var/session_data is RWX for owner and group, none for Other

Database issue perhaps???

2006-08-29 Thread Ben Weston
I went into Webmin and looked at the SQL DBase (my MySQL skills are very 
limited), and that database apparently has no tables in it at all.


Did my DBase not initialize properly during install?  I wouldn't be 
surprised, since I've had to adjust settings today to make everything 
sane as far as users/passwords go, and I just didn't notice it at that time.


Is there anyway to fix this after the fact, short of a fresh re-install?

If you know where your binaries are and your config directory. You'll probably find the rt-setup-database in:/opt/rt3/sbin/rt-setup-database  Off the top of my noggin:sudo /opt/rt3/sbin/rt-setup-database --action init --datadir /opt/rt3/etc --dba sql_admin_username --dba-password sql_admin_password
It needs to be run as a user with access to read your config files (i.e. root/sudo)Andrew

If you still have the install directory around, you can just do
   make initialize-database

Thank you everyone for your help

I now have a login screen, and the abililty to log in (colors are screwy 
and the pics are broken, but I'm happy to have gotten this far).



You'll probably hear from me again as I try to finalize and tweak 
things, but you've proven the most helpful mailing-list group I have 
found in a long time.



Thanks a bunch,
Ben

http://wiki.bestpractical.com/index.cgi?ApacheConfig for advice on this one.The broken pics and missing style sheet are typically because of either:1) because mason is trying to parse /NoAuth/images2) you're missing a trailing slash somewhere in your apache config.
1) will only affect images2) will affect both images and css. Also you'll probably find you're unable to submit some forms I think. I can't quite recall thoughHave a look at your apache error log and look out for lines moaning about not being able to find htmlNoAuth instead of html/NoAuth
I'm not totally sure how it works in Apache2 because I'm using Apache 1.33 and the config is different,Andrew
