Re: [rt-users] No open or closed tickets displayed

2006-09-12 Thread Tim Hill
Hi Kenn, 

Thanks for your response.
The requestors are not set up as privileged users, I was under the impression that they didn't need to be. I tested setting up the requestors as privileged users, but it appeared to give them too many rights by default.


You said you grant SeeQueue to everyone globally, wouldn't this allow them to see all queues in the system? I do not want to give users a choice of queues.

I also only want users to see tickets on one queue, so I assumed it was better to grant the rights on the queue rather than globally.

I will try to find time to experiment with the settings a little more.

Thanks again for taking the time to respond,
Tim

Tim, Although we would grant the rights a little differently (we usuallygrant SeeQueue along with ShowTicket and grant SeeOutgoingMail to
everyone on a global basis), I was wondering if the any of the users(your requestors) are set up as privileged users. If not, then therights you grant to roles won't be applied to them as users.Kenn

Hi, 

As a summary of what I am trying to achieve, I want users (all on-site) to submit their problems via the self service page, and I want them to be able to see their own open and closed tickets. I do not want them to be able to view anyone else's tickets at this stage.

I have spent quite a bit of time reading round on this and I am still having no luck, I can't get the test users submitting a ticket to be able to see their own tickets. The tickets are created and can be dealt with, but users can't see them whether they are open or closed tickets.

[rt-users] No open or closed tickets displayed

Hi, 

I installed Ubuntu server (Dapper 6.06), and then followed the instructions at http://howtoforums.net/viewtopic.php?t=48
regarding how to set up RT.

The software used (Request-Tracker3.4, Apache2, Postfix  PostgreSql-7.4) were all installed from packages.

I have logged onto RT as root and created a couple of users, I have also created a test queue. The users I have set up can see the general queue and the test queue. They can create issues which successfully appear on the system, although it is at this point that I run into problems. 

The users can't see any of their open or closed tickets, but they can see any ticket if they enter the ticket number in the search box.

Has anyone seen this (or a similar) problem before? Have you got any ideas about what I may need to look at?
